Our first stop at the Steamboat “Arabia” Museum will take us on a journey back through time – to 1856. Sinking in minutes, the Arabia lay entombed for the next 132 years until her remarkable recovery. You'll learn of the efforts and techniques which led to her salvage and see the remarkable treasure of that era’s day-to-day goods which were preserved by river mud through the years.
After the Arabia, our guided excursion will visit both historical and present day Kansas City. Areas viewed will include Lewis and Clark Point overlooking the Missouri River; Crown Center; Sprint Center and the adjacent Power and Light District; Union Station; Liberty Memorial; Westport – where the California, Santa Fe and Oregon Trails all intersected; the Vietnam Memorial; The Country Club Plaza with its beautiful J.C. Nichols Fountain and much more!
After a short drive north from the Arabia, find out why thousands of shoppers and interior designers from around the globe, come to Atchison, Kansas to visit Nell Hills. The store features home furnishings, artwork, lighting, and fabric by the yard and accents. It is the perfect place for a day of shopping and browsing, come join the fun!
