The common theme of a Grand Rapids Walking Tour? A love for everything Grand Rapids...its history, culture, entertainment, vibe, tastes, and exciting growth. It is the trifecta of exercise, education, and entertainment. Each walk lasts about 60–90 minutes: we walk a little, gather at a site, and talk, etc.

Get ready for an unforgettable experience that blends craftsmanship, flavor, and local history! Embark on a distillery tour that takes you behind the scenes of Long Road Distillers, the first distillery in the history of Grand Rapids. Founded by a passionate Calvin College graduate and friend, Long Road opened its doors with a clear mission: to create world-class spirits from Michigan-grown ingredients without cutting corners. Taking the “long road” means taking no shortcuts, and that philosophy has guided everything they do. This tour is not just about sipping and sampling; it is about diving into the heart of their process, where every step is meticulously crafted by a team of experts who genuinely care about quality.
