This is a very informative tour, and full of history. Learned a few things that I had never realized from living around here, that I thought were odd..........the tour explained :-)

Gesa Carousel of Dreams

The Gesa Carousel of Dreams is a world class presentation of a restored 108 year-old Charles Carmel hand carved wooden carousel. The antique horses were individually restored over a 10 year period with loving care to bring them back to life. The facility is open to the public and located in the middle of Southridge Sports and Events Complex along the Highway 395 in Kennewick, Washington. The multi-million dollar carousel is available for rides and photographs. Smiles, laughter and fun memories are provided at no charge. We have a concession stand available in the facility with traditional fare such as burgers, hotdogs, nachos, pretzels, beverages and candy.

Although the get together was due to the loss of a very dear friend, the loving, happy atitude she had for life made the choice of where we chose to meet. It's a fun place to visit, kind and helpful staff, beautiful design and a great way to remember our friend. She loved the bling and glitz so all the time spent designing such awesome horses was perfect. Its clean, music was great and we all have a wonderful memory to add to our minds. If you go and see, ride, look around and think, you'll be happy and smile as we did. No matter the occasion, it can be a happy and fun place to visit.

We hired David to take us on a wine tour outside of the Tri-Cities. We didn't know where to go, so we told him what kind of wineries we like. He coordinated everything. He was prompt, professional, and kind. He'd called ahead to each location, which created a feeling of being extra welcome at each winery. We had a terrific day.

My wife and I went to the winery on a whim late in the afternoon. It was our first experience visiting a winery in the U.S.. We were so happy we made the choice. Because of the issues related to COVID-19 we were seated on the patio, offered a glass of their award winning Sangiovese Rose and charcuterie plate. We couldn’t have been treated better. We selected several of their Private reserve wines to taste and ultimately purchase. We are now participants in their wine club. We will certainly look forward to our quarterly wine deliveries. Especially we would like to thank the gentleman who served us and made the tastings so informative. He made us feel special, even though I was dressed very casually ( bib overalls ). Overall a “perfect” experience!

The REACH Museum

Reviewed By grace262015 - Santa Rosa, United States

This museum wasn’t on our original itinerary, but we’re really glad we stopped. The geology and natural history exhibits are top notch and would appeal to all ages. We learned a lot about Hanford and how the government set up a plutonium plant here quickly to develop the atomic bomb. It gave us a lot of new perspective on World War 2 and the Cold War.
