A Perfect Day Trip to Burlington, Vermont! 🚗🍁

During my final months on the East Coast, I took a spontaneous trip to Vermont – and it was all about ice cream, beer, and good vibes! Here’s how I spent my perfect day in Burlington: 1️⃣ Church Street Marketplace 🏛️ This pedestrian-only street in downtown Burlington is the heart of the city! ❤️ Lined with cute shops, cafés, and street performers, it’s the perfect place to wander and soak in the laid-back atmosphere. The historic brick buildings and mountain views give it a cozy, small-town feel – super chill and photogenic! 📸 Grab a coffee, people-watch, and just enjoy the slow pace. ☕😌 2️⃣ Burlington Beer Company (BBC) 🍻 Next stop: BBC for some locally brewed craft beer! The beer here is 🍺delicious – I tried a flight of IPAs and a seasonal stout. Both were crisp and full of flavor! The vibe is industrial-chic with rustic touches – very Vermont! 🪵 Fair warning: The food and drinks are a bit pricey, but the quality makes it worth it. 😅💰 Pro tip: Sit on the patio if the weather’s nice! ☀️ 3️⃣ Ben & Jerry’s Factory Tour 🍦😍 The highlight of the trip! This iconic ice cream factory is a must-visit. The tour is fun and interactive – you learn about the brand’s quirky history, see the production line, and even get a free sample! 🎉 Don’t miss the Flavor Graveyard 😂, where retired flavors like “Wavy Gravy” and “Dublin Mudslide” rest in peace. The onsite scoop shop has EVERY flavor you can imagine – I went with “Half Baked” and it was heavenly! 🤤 🙌 Shoutout to My Amazing Guide! Big thanks to my friend who played tour guide – even though she’s been here SIX times, she still showed me around with so much excitement! 😂👏 That’s what true friendship looks like! ❤️ 📍 Final Thoughts: Burlington is the perfect blend of nature, food, and culture. It’s small enough to explore in a day but charming enough to make you want to stay longer. Whether you’re a foodie, a nature lover, or just someone looking for a relaxed getaway, Burlington won’t disappoint! #BurlingtonVT #DayTrip #VermontTravel #BenAndJerrys #CraftBeer #ChurchStreet #TravelUSA #EastCoastVibes #IceCreamLover 🍦🚗
