SOUTHEASTERN OHIO TOURS
Being the first area of the state to be explored and mapped by the
westward-expanding American Colonials, Southeastern Ohio presents travelers with a uniquely historic look at some of the types of industry and occupation practiced by the early settlers. Of particular note was the utilization of the fine local clays used by the many potteries of the area.
The following tours are set out as typical Hub and Spoke, One Night / Two Day Trips. However, all can be adapted to One Day or Multi Night Tours, or can be combined with others to form Circle Tours.
