Join us for a historic and scenic tour of Hastings, MN with 60+ sites on the Minnesota Historic Registry.  This trip will be a guided tour, rich with autumn scenery and Minnesota history dating back to 1856.  We will have our own tour guide and visit a variety of "must see" destinations, including but not limited to:  City Hall, LeDuc Historic Estates, Vermillion Falls & Hastings Lock & Dam #2.  We will dine at the Confluence Hotel in downtown Hastings.  Lunch will be provided by Missi's Sip & Savor.  

We will be touring sites both indoors and outdoors.  To be most comfortable on this trip, you will be dressed for the weather and have clothing and shoes comfortable for walking indoors and outside.  Some destinations, such as  LeDuc Estate has a 2nd floor, only accessible by stairs.  If you are not interested in stairs or need a little down time, there will be options throughout the day to "sit out" a portion of the tour and still be fully satisfied with all of the sites and sounds of the Fall Season, coupled with the historic charm of Hastings.  This is the perfect trip for adventurers who love the outdoors, enjoy Minnesota History, like the variety of both walking and sitting, and are looking for the perfect spot to view peek colors of the season.

Our trip escorts are sensitive to the length of drive and will make sure our guests have opportunities to take advantage of bathroom stops for comfort.  This is a day trip.
