Factory Tours Mean Fun© Lain Ehmann
While it's terrific to hit the hot spots for a family vacation - like San Francisco, New York City, or Orlando - sometimes the trips to the off-the-beaten-path spots, like Grandma and Grandpa's hometown, can be the most fun.
Here's a list of some of the best company tours in the country. And most are far from the bright lights of a big city: Hershey's Chocolate World Hershey, PA Open year-round Free www.hersheys.com/chocworld/ Ben & Jerry's Waterbury, VT Open year-round $2.00 for adults; kids free http://www.benjerry.com/tourinfo.tmpl Vermont Teddy Bear Shelburne, VT Open year-round $1.00 for adults; kids free http://store.yahoo.com/vtbear/store.html The Flower Fields Carlsbad, CA Check website to see what's growing and what's in bloom Free http://www.theflowerfields.com/start.htm Saturn Spring Hill, TN Open year-round, weekdays only Free, but kids must be at least 6 years old to tour the plant http://www.saturnbp.com/company/welcome_... Celestial Seasonings Tea Boulder, CO Open year-round Free, but kids must be over 5 to attend the factory portion of the tour http://www.celestialseasonings.com/whowe... Don't stick just to this list. Once you know where you're headed, check with the local Chamber of Commerce to see what nearby companies might be open for tours. You just might be surprised at what's right around the corner from Aunt Sally's house.
