When it comes to vacationing in Ohio, we have all probably heard about one or two destinations in Cincinnati, Columbus or Cleveland....but there is a very quiet charm over here in Akron OH and some of these amazing destinations deserve every little bit of attraction that they get. In this article, we will give you the lowdown on how to make the most out of a single day that you spend in Akron and we will leave it up to you to decide if it is worth your time to bring your vacationing groups here with our Ohio charter bus.
Akron Zoo is a must for kids
Kids and animals...there is most certainly a magical bond between them and if you are here in Akron, a visit to its zoo would not be a waste of your time. Akron Zoo’s come a long way and to be precise, they began this journey with a donated piece of land from the city’s founder, Simon Perkins, and two brown bears...which were also donations.

The initial intention for the land donation was for it to be turned into a park...well, ideas were churned, donations were made and today, we have an extensive, fun and exciting zoo suitable for the kids and their family to enjoy. We can use two words to instantly describe a visit to Akron Zoo....peaceful and entertaining. If you have younger kids with you, we reckon that you might want to check out the nice carousel as well.
Get ready to be wowed by the Stan Hywet Hall and Grounds
One might initially make the assumption that this visit is going to be boring for the kids or that the teens are going to fall asleep as soon as they step foot into the ancient, mystical building....far from it. We have heard raving reviews from people of all ages, saying some pretty awesome things about their visit to Stan Hywet. The mansion and garden, which can be found on Portage Path in Akron, took in a whole lot of details when it was designed and built. The people worked more than three thousand blueprints and drawings and a massive number of hours poring over and changing.

The same can be said about the gardens too. Every year, Stan Hywet enjoys thousands and thousands of visits from the locals as well as vacationing foreigners. Warren Manning is the man to be credited for this groundbreaking garden’s layout. Today, it is known for its immaculate blending of nature and astounding architecture.
