A 3-DAY FEAST FOR ALL 5 SENSES

Some road trips are all about the scenery. Other getaways focus on the food and drink. This three-day tour treats all five senses as you and your road trip crew make your way from St. Thomas to Windsor.

Start your trip off with a treat for your taste buds at St. Thomas’ The Fritter Shop. In addition to the classic apple fritter, choose from creative takes on this perfect pastry parcel, including lemon, Dutch chocolate, cherry cheesecake and more, with many available in vegan options.

Next, offer your eyes a spectacular view at the St. Thomas Elevated Park, Canada’s first and only elevated park. At its peak in the 1930s, this former rail bridge carried 50 trains every day. Today, it’s been transformed into a beautiful outdoor space complete with art installations, flower gardens and more.

For lunch, follow your nose along the St. Thomas Pizza Trail! As a town boasting the planet’s highest pizza per capita, you’re in for some solid slices! If you’d like a frosty pint to wash down all that pie, stop by Railway City Brewing Co. or Caps Off Brewing Co.

Spend a few hours exploring the extensive collection of outdoor murals in St. Thomas that you’ll find on everything from boxcars to buildings. Then, treat your ears to the sound of crashing Lake Erie waves with a quick trip to Port Stanley’s beautiful beach, just 20 minutes away. Discover some off-thebeaten-path spots for a mid-afternoon snack and beverage break.

Continue to delight your senses by checking into a great place to spend the night in Nature’s Oasisa bed and breakfast retreat; Comfort Inn in St. Thomas; or an Airbnb in St. Thomas. For dinner, tempt your taste buds with a delicious bao platter from Mr. & Mrs. Bao or scrumptious sushi from Plaza Sushi.
