Caves & Corvettes

Caves & Corvettes

Rev up your engines, this day starts at the GM Corvette Assembly Plant where you'll witness the "birth of a Corvette."  Then ride on over to the National Corvette Museum, the showcase for America's favorite sports car.  After a "high powered" morning, motor on to Fountain Square Park for a stroll through the park, a little shopping and lunch.  This downtown district features several locally-owned restaurants.  From downtown, go underground at Lost River Cave & Valley.  Here you'll slip into a lower gear when you take a leisurely boat tour of the cave.  Then shift gears and head to the barn, Chaney's Dairy Barn.  At Chaney's they make their own premium ice cream on the farm.  This evening, enjoy slow smoked barbecue at Split Tree Barbecue.  If you are on track for a little competitive fun, visit Race World.  At Race World you don't just watch the races, you are a part of the action.

Water & Wonder

Water & Wonder

Start your day with a trip to Riley's Bakery and indulge in their made-from-scratch cream horns, Hungarian coffee cake and pastries.  Then visit the Barren River Imaginative Museum of Science, a unique "hands-on" science museum.  You'll be amazed by the wonders of science.  Next, bounce on over to the Imagination Stations, the area's only indoor play zone with interactive inflatables.  When you've worked up an appetite, go next door to the Cambridge Market.  This delicatessen features delicious gourmet specials and desserts. After lunch, make a splash at Russell Sims Aquatic Park. The pools, slides and playgrounds make for a splish-splashing good time.  This evening take the entire family to Southern Lanes for bowling, mini golf, billiards, games and more.

Shakers & Shopping

Shakers & Shopping

Before you begin day of shopping you'll want to fuel up with a hearty breakfast from Country Mill.  Country Mill is a local favorite for home cooked meals.  While you are downtown, make your way to the Kentucky Museum.  Here you'll learn about Kentucky's past and have a chance to purchase Kentucky crafted products.   Next take a short drive to the Shaker Museum at South Union.  You'll marvel at the accomplishments of this innovative religious society.  Of course, you won't want to miss the gift shop!  For lunch enjoy a fresh from the farm meal that includes homemade breads, soup, sandwiches and premium ice cream at Chaney's Dairy Barn.  The Chaney's have filled the barn with Kentucky crafts and foods.  After lunch, it is time to shop again, at nearby Rock Garden Farms.  This is the stop for unique finds and one-of-a-kinds.  After all this shopping, take time to "cool off" at Lost River Cave.  The Cave features a boat tour of the cave and the Old Mill Gift Shop.  As evening approaches shop til' you drop at Greenwood Mall, have dinner at the food court and ride the antique-styled carousel.
