Expect the Unexpected Daytrip featuring: Fort Smith and the Arkansas Missouri Railroad

11/7/2020 8:00 am

$165.00

Experience Fort Smith, Arkansas! Discover the real America and explore the original gateway to the Wild West, where Native American culture and the old west meet for the first time. Our tour begins on the Arkansas Missouri Railroad! The Arkansas & Missouri Railroad's special passenger train services offer you 'A Window Seat to History' -- an opportunity to travel in the style of a bygone era. You can still enjoy the leisurely elegance of real train travel through the mountains and valleys of Northwest Arkansas. Over trestles with views for miles and through a quarter mile tunnel, your journey will take you all the way to the top of the scenic Boston Mountains and into the historic Arkansas River Basin. The Arkansas & Missouri Railroad is one of the few commercial lines left in the United States that operates both freight and passenger service. All of the passengers travel the regular working rails in refurbished antique passenger or parlor coaches. Whatever your reason to take the train, you are almost guaranteed to leave the Arkansas & Missouri Railroad with a feeling of nostalgic joy in your heart. Then, we visit “Miss Laura’s Social Club.” Located inside of Fort Smith’s historic downtown area, Miss Laura’s is the only house of ill-repute that stood the test of time. Now, it is the only former bordello on the National Register of Historic Places, and has been fully restored to its original grandeur. This Victorian mansion has become a prominent symbol of this once boisterous border town’s very colorful past. We continue our tour with a guided tour of Fort Smith where we learn about the early days, witness the awe-inspiring murals painted along Garrison Ave by world-renowned artists, and discover the timeless architecture found in the 22-block Belle Grove historic district. Finally, we continue our journey back in time at the Clayton House! Standing regally in the Belle Grove Historic District, the Clayton House serves as a living history book of Fort Smith’s elegant Victorian period during the city’s frontier beginnings on the border of Indian Territory. The Clayton House provides a step back to 1882, the year William Henry Harrison Clayton moved his family into the antebellum home that he doubled in size and shaped into an Italianate-style masterpiece. Coal-burning fireplaces and period furnishings in each room place you in a time that featured no indoor plumbing or electricity, but that was rich with austerity. Our guided tour provides a perspective of the mission to bring law and justice to the area from the home of the chief prosecutor of the famous court of Judge Isaac C. Parker. We will end our time in Fort Smith with an included dinner at the Clayton House made especially and privately for our group! Join us on our journey back in time- and not too far from home- and discover the wonders of Fort Smith!

Our stay in Grapevine includes time on Historic Downtown Main Street- where you can marvel at the holiday lighting while checking off your holiday shopping list with all the charming gifts local stores have to offer. With millions of lights strung, and enormous decorations and animated characters the Christmas Capitol of Texas comes to life! Then, our evening in Grapevine is filled with one of the south’s greatest holiday traditions! But it is our Christmas gift to you…and we are keeping it a surprise! You don’t want to miss out! From Grapevine we head deep into the heart of Texas as we make our way to San Antonio for two nights. Dine at a Texas staple, The Salt Lick BBQ, world-renowned barbecue nestled in the Hill Country. Recipes at Salt Lick BBQ have roots back to the mid 1800’s and have been impressing guests for decades! While in San Antonio our Riverwalk hotel is just steps away from the heartbeat of the city. Explore the famous urban waterway, as you dine, shop, and stroll to see the highlights of San Antonio. Tucked quietly below street level and only steps from the Alamo, the Riverwalk provides a serene and pleasant way to navigate the city. Of course, no trip to San Antonio is complete without a visit to the historical Alamo-with a story bigger than Texas, the Alamo gives visitors a unique opportunity to discover the legend and battle that took place within its walls. Our guided tour of San Antonio will take us to other treasures such as the San Fernando Cathedral-the oldest standing church in Texas, and Market Square or the “El Mercado-“ the largest Mexican Market in the United States. El Mercado boasts more than 100 locally owned shops, and allows guests to enjoy the flavors of old Mexico and find authentic Talavera pottery. You can even indulge in one of San Antonio’s most delicious traditions- homemade tamales! There is much to be discovered in San Antonio-but the best is seen from our River cruise, where twinkling lights surround us, and the bustling downtown passes by. The flavors and colors of San Antonio at Christmastime are at the heart of Christmas in the South! From our Riverwalk nights and Texas Christmas Lights, this is one holiday you won’t forget!
