Heritage/Agriculture Tours

Come aboard our 24-passenger Sugarland Express (or bring a larger group on your own bus) for an exciting and informative 4 1/2 hour heritage and agriculture tour*.  Step back in time with an interesting historical orientation of Clewiston and Lake Okeechobee.  You’ll get an up-close look at a sugar cane farm where we’ll chop and chew some sugar cane and view the latest in farming techniques as well as a journey to the Clewiston sugar mill, the sugar refinery and citrus juice plant—both state-of-the-art facilities and our newest addition, a tour of the renovated Clewiston Museum.  These tours begin at 10 a.m. weekdays and the cost is $33.00** per person, which includes lunch at the historic Clewiston Inn.  Group rates are available for parties of 15 or more and for groups providing their own bus transportation.  Children under 12 years of age are not permitted on the tours.  

 RESERVATIONS ARE REQUIRED.

 *Please note that any portions of the tour that include a visit to ongoing operations may not always be available due to schedule conflicts, maintenance downtime or poor weather.  Also, visits into the sugar refinery require wearing of hairnets, which we provide; removal of all jewelry other than wedding rings; and sandals, slippers, and open-heeled shoes are prohibited.    Tobacco, chewing gum, food, drinks, cameras, video equipment and clothing with sequins, glitter, and embellishments are also prohibited.
