Buffett, Birds and Beef The Great Platte River Road
START THE TOUR IN OMAHA, NEBRASKA’S LARGEST CITY AND HOME OF BUSINESS magnate, investor and philanthropist Warren Buffett, the “Oracle of Omaha.” Stop by Buffett’s favorite stomping grounds and hangouts. After sightseeing, get ready for birding in Lincoln, followed by the Central Flyway. During the annual spring migration, you will meet face-toface with roughly one million sandhill cranes that roost in this part of the Platte River. Guided sunset and sunrise tours give visitors different perspectives of these majestic birds, also known as living dinosaurs. For a taste of agritourism, venture to North Platte to learn where Nebraska’s beef comes from and how it’s processed, followed by a feast of five delicious cuts to sample yourself.
