Ben & Jerry Factory Tour<\/p><\/div>\n
…You want to cool your taste buds<\/strong><\/h2>\nExperience a sugar high\u2014and possible brain freeze\u2014at the beloved birthplace of Chunky Monkey and Cherry Garcia. The Ben & Jerry Factory<\/a> is nestled within the charming Vermont town of Waterbury (near Burlington<\/a>) and remains the state’s #1 tourist attraction. The interactive factory tour guides guests through the ice cream-making process while providing a colorful history lesson behind the iconic ice cream company. The tour ends (where else?) at an ice cream shop. Order the Vermonster Sundae (a 20-scoop sundae in a bucket) before paying your respects in the Flavor Graveyard, where the company pays homage in headstones to no longer offered \u201cdearly de-pinted\u201d flavors like Wavy Gravy and Rainforest Crunch.<\/p>\n![\"Oregon's](\"https:\/\/www.orbitz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Cannon-Beach_Oregon.jpg\")

The rugged Oregon coastline beckons with firm, yet soft, sand ideal for long walks. Go ahead and sport that cozy scarf while strolling. Fans of the film \u201cGoonies\u201d will recognize the massive rock formations in the ocean off Cannon Beach as the one-time home of One-Eyed Willie\u2019s treasure-filled pirate ship.<\/p>\n![\"Statue](\"https:\/\/www.orbitz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Statue-of-Liberty-Museum_gallery-img-big11.jpg\")

(It\u2019s even been known to snow in mid- to late-August.) Mount McKinley, the continent\u2019s highest peak, rises majestically above a landscape where hiking and wildlife spotting are top activities through summer.
