Worth It!

Worth it, as always. I really don’t think you can go wrong with any of these trips. I’d recommend one more stop thah we accidentally discovered along the way that perfectly fits the theme of the trip though!

Title covers every aspect of this trip!! Perfect!

It was a hot day when we did this so after the hikes, the hops were a welcome stop to recover and hydrate. The history reveals in the package were all so interesting and definitely will keep those out of the way areas in mind when we are in those areas at some point. The suggestions were great and it was nice to venture into the recommendations instead of consuming time on other businesses. Save the others for another visit!!!! The hikes were perfect, not too challenging but got our exercise. The areas were definitely beautiful and very interesting. We loved the trip and want to try some others on your list!!
