Why would someone even rate this place a star lesser. To me this place is historical and when you watch the short movie that they run at the start of the hourly tour, you will know how Ben & Jerry's has survived the test of time.

The factory is just humongous and you will know it when you enter through the spacious parking area and they have two of it. We were welcomed by a long queue of ice cream fanatics waiting in line to try/buy the plethora of flavors they offer at the counters. They offer hourly(not sure on the frequency) short tours that are led by some enthusiastic teens who go through their standard script without making it boring for the audience.

We were shown a movie(like I called out before) on its inception and survival through time and later taken to an aerial view of the machinery that produces the ice creams. The cleaning was happening by the time we got there but we were shown another movie on the production process while we stood there. Then we were brought down for trying some free samples before the tour ended.

The most fascinating part to the trip to us was visiting the Ice cream graveyard that literally had cemeteries to honor those flavors that were stopped from production with details on how long they were active. They also had some cows that were grazing and gracing the factory ;) We then went to stand in the long queue for ice creams and got some great flavors. If you are visiting the beautiful state of Vermont, make sure you are visiting this place too.
