    • Burlington International Airport is a very nice small Airport, very easy to get around in the terminal. Not very crowded in the airport.

    Union Station is 1/2 block from the lake and within walking distance of King Street Landing where the ferry goes to New York. For those who come into Burlington by train this is a great convenience.

    • How safe is the Greyhound bus terminal in the early hours of the morning. How easy is it to find a taxi going to and from the airport.

    This is all you will need to get anywhere!

    If it is a little more off the beaten path, you don't have a rental car, and don't feel like blowing money on a taxi (particularly terrible here)......hitchhike. You'd be surprised how easy, safe, and common it is compared to most places.

    The ferries on Lake Champlain have operated for centuries. Today, the Lake Champlain Transportation Company provides this vital service. The boats connect Burlington, Port Kent, Essex, Charlotte, Plattsburgh, and Grand Isle, on both the Vermont and New York sides of the lake. The boat between Burlington and Port Kent, New York, runs daily from June through October. The trip is about an hour each way. Times are from 8:00 am to 6:15 pm from the King St ferry dock on Burlington's waterfront; see the website for more details.

    If you want to take day trips from Burlington to the Adirondacks (Ft Ticonderoga, Ausable Chasm, etc), then this is the way to go. It's also a nice way to see the lake, although without the narration provided on the cruises.

    take a bite
    by davecallahan
    These chocolates are some of the smoothest, gotta-have-some-more pieces of mouth watering delights you have ever tasted. You can see how it is all made in a short one-half hour, impromptu tour. (large groups need to request time ahead of their visit).

    They start you in the store where all the goodies are. They have over one-hundred varities to choose from. Then you sit (or stand) in front of a large glass window, behind which the workers are making the candies in super-clean condition. The tour guide has a spiel and hands out some samples as he is talking. There is a story board of the harvesting of cocoa and the processing of the bean into chocolate. And then you are taken back into the store area where all the goodies are waiting to be bought. This is guaranteed to make you want to buy. (and we did)

  • Address: 750 Pine Street
  • Directions: I-89 to the I-189 exit, take I-189 west to Ethan Allen Hwy (US7), go north on US7 to Birchcliff Pkwy and then Birchcliff west to Pine Street. jog south on Pine and you are there

    Ben and Jerry's Factory,
    Waterbury, VT
    by sarahandgareth, 1 more photos
    Ben and Jerry's factory isn't right in Burlington, but it's a very quick drive from town. The factory is one of the biggest attractions in the entire state, and even in that in-between winter and spring season, there were plenty of people visiting. While you can wander around outside a little bit, the big draw is the factory tour. It's a working factory five days a week, but things are quiet on the weekend, and while you get good explanations of what happens at each stage it would probably have been even more fun to see the workers actually pouring in great vats of chocolate chips and so forth! The tour is pretty candy-colored, with the goofy writing so familiar from the ice cream packets, and there's a brief movie, too, though that feels a bit corporate now that Ben and Jerry's is part of a much bigger conglomerate. In other parts of the factory, there are display cases full of great memorabilia from the early days of Ben and Jerry's; it's a really fun history of the company and its unusual ethos (they are big believers in corporate responsibility and giving back to the community - from before those things were fashionable!), though every now and then you find yourself thinking it would have been awfully to go to the original store way back when, instead of to the big factory! You also get to taste some ice cream, of course, and if the samples aren't enough there's a place to buy a cup or a cone outside. The tours cots $3 for adults ($2 seniors) and children under 12 are free.

    • The Car Ferry - Burlington
    The Car Ferry
    by Goner
    Burlington runs along Lake Champlain which seems to set the mood of Burlington. It's nearly always windy which makes the lake rough and reminiscent of the ocean. It's a very moody lake; it can be in a dark mood -- but when the sun comes out from behind the clouds it becomes bright and cheery.
    Lake Champlain Shoreline Cruises leaves from the dock at the end of College Street and charges $10 for a 45-minute narrated tour.
    The Lake Champlain Car and Passenger Ferry leaves from the dock next to the Maritime Museum at the end of King Street. They only charge $6.25, they don't have a narrator, but there is a video playing the history of the lake. This ferry is not crowded and you don't have to fight for a picture-taking spot.

    Cabot Vistor Center
    by sarahandgareth
    Cabot is one of the best-known cheese brands in the US, especially the Northeast, with a reputation for extremely high quality cheddar in particular. Unlike some other big food brands, Cabot has remained independent, and is still run on a co-operative basis, with many smaller farms participating in the business. When we visited the creamery, they showed a brief film about the creamery's history and then we got a very decent tour of the plant, which smelled suitably agricultural. We had the impression that our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable about cheese and the business, though we didn't test her very hard! Afterwards, we were able to sample as much cheese as we wanted: they had more than a dozen varieties, from their flagship aged cheddars to flavored cheeses, and we also sample some of their other dairy products. They also produce cheese elsewhere now, but this was a very interesting reminder that at least some of the cheese is still produced right in the heart of Vermont dairy country - and very beautiful countryside it is.

  • Directions: Cabot is about a one hour drive east of Burlington, but well worth the trip. From I-89. take exit #8 at Montpelier onto Rte. 2 East. At Marshfield, go left on Rte. 215 and continue 5 miles to Cabot Village.

    Explore and discover 37 buildings that are home to vast collections of fine and decorative arts, paintings, folk sculpture, weathervanes, decoys, quilts, toys, dolls, circus memorabilia and more. Even the buildings are historic, with traditional New England structures dotting the Museum's beautifully landscaped 45 acres. Stand on the walkway of a lighthouse which once stood watch over Lake Champlain; stroll along the footpath of a two-lane covered bridge; or write on a slate chalkboard in a one-room schoolhouse. Even walk the decks of the steamboat Ticonderoga, America's last remaining side paddlewheel passenger steamer with a vertical beam engine.
