Southern Charm
Are you looking for something different for vacation this year? We have just what you may be looking for with this seven-day vacation! As we travel south to begin our journey, we make a stop in Beaufort, South Carolina as we relive the past through the narration of professional guides on a horse and carriage tour, learning more about their place in Civil War history.
The next four nights will be spent on Jekyll Island, one of Georgia’s barrier islands. From here we will travel the short distance to our nation’s oldest city, St. Augustine. The trip also includes a fun day exploring where we even get up-close and personal with some sea turtles. Don’t miss the chance for a quick photo opportunity of the picturesque views of the ancient driftwood trees at Driftwood Beach. See what it’s like to go “shrimpin’” on a very rousing excursion aboard the Lady Jane with Captain Larry Credle and his crew. Watch as they plow the marshlands, dragging a
net to pull in wild Georgia white shrimp, stingrays, horseshoe crabs the size of tennis rackets, baby hammerhead sharks, or cannonball jellyfish.
Then it’s off to St. Simons Island where we meet our step on guide who will enthrall us with the sights, lore and history of the island. This trip has a little bit of everything!

Kentucky’s Bourbon, Foster & Gangsters
Did you know that Bourbon whiskey actually got its name from Bourbon County, Kentucky? This two-day tour will allow you to learn more about this type of whiskey and its Kentucky roots. Tours of Makers Mark, Heaven Hill Distillery and Jim Beam are all included, with samples at the conclusion of each tour from the distilleries. We will enjoy the official outdoor musical of Kentucky, The Stephen Foster story and tour My Old Kentucky Home. Learn about the famous guests and family members of Federal Hill from a tour guide wearing the latest 1850s antebellum fashion.
The last leg of our journey is spent exploring the street where the mob made their million, gamblers lost their lives, and ladies of the night earned their reputations. Join our gangster guides for a raucous, high-energy presentation inside an old casino to explain the historic significance of Newport and discover how this little town gave birth to the modern-day gaming industry. This tour combines some of Kentucky’s best and well-known attributes from Stephen Foster, the Kentucky Bourbon Trail and Gangsters. Don’t miss out, call today!
