Visit Cherry Blossoms By Carriage On This Unique Tour In Wisconsin

Is there anything that can make Door County's fruit blossom season in Wisconsin more magical? How about a horse-drawn carriage ride through a Door County village. That’s what you’ll find on the Spring Blossom Tour on the Door County peninsula. The trip, offered by the company that offers popular trolley tours all year long, is an experience you won't want to miss. Here’s why.

The history of cherry and apple cultivation in Door County dates back to the late 19th century when settlers first began planting trees in the region.

Early settlers found the unique microclimate of Door County, characterized by mild summers and cold winters moderated by the surrounding waters of Lake Michigan, proved ideal for fruit trees.

The cherries ripen in July and August – while you can find some growers offering sweet cherries, tart cherries are the main traditional crop. Apples come next and are available through the fall.

All these fruit trees means spring is especially magical on the peninsula. The Spring Blossom Tour includes an experience like no other.

You’ll ride one of the vintage-style trolleys and stop for a wine tasting, as well as a lunch at an iconic Door County restaurant – the English Inn.

But the main attraction on this tour is the blossoms. The trolley will take you through the best of the county’s spring beauty.

The day includes one more bit of magic – a horse-drawn carriage ride through Fish Creek.

This former fishing port is one of the prettiest villages in Wisconsin, and you’ll take it all in to the clip-clop sound of hooves.

The orchards were the backdrop to my life growing up – I wish I had taken more time to smell the flowers during fruit blossom season in Wisconsin!
