Ben & Jerry’s ice cream is as famous as it is delicious. The local legend began in 1978 in a repurposed gas station with two friends who decided to make and sell ice cream. These days, visitors can tour their modern-day ice cream factory in Burlington, Vermont, and get the scoop on the brand’s evolution.

Thirty-minute tours demonstrate the ice cream making process; some tours of the factory take place on days with no ice cream production, so check their calendar first. They also have an ice cream shop and a gift shop on site. During winter, visitors can take the 45-minute Umiak Snowshoe & Ice Cream Tour.
