Downtown market
This is a great tour for all, but especially great for a corporate outing or a group that wants something different than just a Pub Crawl. This tour will only make two stops; one can be a food or libation stop along the Ionia Corridor of restaurants and then on to the Downtown Market. Highlights of the market include the homemade ice cream shop, the bake shop, and the cheese, wine and beer establishment – where you can actually drink/sample what you may want to buy at their shop. Additionally, there are a few restaurants that offer lunch-type selections. The market stop would be 50 minutes, and the first stop would be 25 minutes.
Note: Because the Downtown Market closes at 7pm, the last tour time to do this tour is the 4:30pm tour.
Check out the Downtown Market’s website.
Difficulty: Easy/medium, mostly flat terrain
