Part I: The Walking Tours
One of the best things about Asheville is that it’s large enough to present its visitors and residents with options, but small enough to tour on foot. We at Carolina Mornings are so proud of our small city’s culture and history that we decided to showcase a select few of the best tours offered. What follows is the first of a 2 part feature in which we’ve highlighted the best of the best of the Asheville Walking Tours.
Brew-ed Brewery and History Walking Tours
Led by a certified Cicerone, the Brewery and History Walking Tour focuses on education, community, and the local economy. Tour goers will learn how beer is made, how to taste it, and what the brewing wizards of Asheville are doing better than anyone else. Special access to the breweries in Asheville is at the heart of this tour so expect to hear some fascinating stories behind some delicious beverages.
In between each of the brewery stops, tour goers will learn about the early days of Asheville, its architecture, and how it became the "Paris of the South”
Downtown Asheville is home to some truly amazing culinary wizards! Known to be inspired, talented, and willing to push the boundaries of the palate, the Chefs of Asheville are committed to the local farms and local businesses that make Asheville as vibrant as we know it to be. Visitors will experience the rich and award winning meals that stem from that commitment.
