Factory Tours

Ever wonder how shoes are cobbled, fabric woven, automobiles assembled, glass blown, pottery fired, sculpture poured, chocolates molded, cigars rolled, beer brewed or whiskey distilled? If you haven't already discovered how entertaining- and educational- factory tours can be, you've come to the right place. And even if you've already taken an inside peek or two, you'll be amazed at how many places we've found. Candy makers and cheese factories demonstrate their culinary skills and often provide free samples of their products, and have gift shops where you can often buy discounted items. Manufacturers of everything from guitars to shoes invite you to watch how their assembly lines of skilled workers do their stuff. Wineries, breweries and distilleries after tours and tastings. And craftsmen show create glassware, pottery, sculpture, ceramics and other decorative arts will impress you with their talents.
