Milwaukee Field Trip Ideas

Who knew a Milwaukee field trip or scouting adventure could taste so good?

Welcome to your one-of-a-kind Milwaukee field trip your students and scouts will love. We offer unique group programs covering culinary arts, F.A.C.E., local history, foreign languages, and cultural encounters. Custom tours are also available featuring rich local history, including tours centered around Latino-owned food producers in our community, Milwaukee's French heritage, and Black Excellence tour featuring visits to talk with African American small business owners in Milwaukee.

For every 15 participants, we provide one comped ticket for a scout leader, chaperone, or teacher. We price our tours based on your group's transportation, but we can provide quotes for buses if needed.

Experiential learning makes such a difference.

My inspiration for our field trips in Milwaukee was Mrs. Appleby, my 5th grade teacher in Menomonee Falls. She would take us on walking tours and include stops for lunch along the way. Turns out, it’s way easier to learn something on a full stomach! 

Many years later, I find myself in the unique position where I can offer the same experience to the students of our community.

By integrating hands-on experiences with engaging culinary and cultural stops, our tours offer students a unique opportunity to see, taste, and discover Milwaukee – and the world – in ways that textbooks simply can’t match.
