Things to do in Kansas City, Missouri (MO): The Best Tours
The home of swing and bebop for some, "The City of Fountains" to others, Kansas City is different things to different people. Music enthusiasts are drawn to the jazz clubs and old haunts of famous musicians such as Charlie Parker and Count Basie. With more fountains than Rome, there is ample opportunity for scenic strolling from fountain to fountain. Stop along the way to discover interesting neighborhoods and browse through eclectic shops. Families are particularly attracted to the city because of its child-friendly events and venues. Science City features hands-on exhibits including a mock television studio where kids can deliver a weather forecast, while the Zoo houses impressive African and Australian exhibits plus an IMAX Theater. The city's museums cover everything from the history of jazz music to a celebration of African American baseball players. Once a trading post for pioneers heading to the Western United States, today Kansas City is a burgeoning metropolis with activities and attractions for visitors of all ages and interests.

My family and I are moving away from KC. As my going away party, a group of friends and I went with Lisa on a hike of Strawberry Hill in KCK. This is the second hike I've been on with her. I can't say enough about them. They are so fun. So informative. We were able to go down to Kaw Point which was so cool. Amazing views, amazing weather and such a bittersweet send off for me!

We decided to give this a try while on a mini vacation with our friends, after a little getting used to the workings off the Segways we were off. All 4 of us were newbies to start with but soon became very comfortable, the interesting outdoor art exhibits were awesome and Kelly our guide did a good job of telling us some highlights during each stop. Definitely had a great time and made some good memories with our friends, we did a lot of things on this trip but we are happy we included this as one of them!

We added this on to our legoland ticket as a cheap add on. We went in with limited expectations and those were blown away!! It is a great aquarium and I appreciated the peacefulness of it-they had lovely music playing with water sounds and dimmed lights. It was lovely to sit and just relax while watching the fish. We loved the turtles, rays as well as the knowledgeable and friendly staff at the touch pool. We had fun completing the pj masks challenge as a family to get a prize at the end!

9. Myths and facts of Rome
Overall Ratings
1.0 based on 1 reviews
It was not in vain that Rome received the title of “Eternal City”: at such a venerable age, both proven historical facts and folklore plots are interesting, sometimes explaining more than chronicles. I will gladly tell you about both, I will become a guide to hidden places and advise delicious taverns. Together we will walk around the famous and not very sights of Rome (there will be surprises during the walk) and look at them from different angles.
Inclusions: In-person guide
