Kansas City has everything for everyone, it caters for all ages and all pockets! It is also the ideal gateway to everything the Mid-West has to offer because in Kansas you can take a trip back in time where time-honoured traditions, cultural experiences and artistic expressions are components of everyday life. Touring Kansas offers a glimpse of the many, many fascinating pioneer, cowboy, farmer and modern experiences this mesmerising region has to offer.

Highlights include the Kansas Cosmosphere and Space Centre; the overwhelming beauty of the Flint Hillsand the significant ecosystem of the Tallgrass Prairie; the “western movie-set like” charm of Cottonwood Falls; the historic town of Manhattan; the New Underground Salt Museum in Hutchinson; and the rich culture of Wichita, Kansas’ largest city, where you will enjoy nightlife, the Old Cowtown Museum, and the Discover Historic Wichita Trolley Tour.
