Yes! However, the Social Station operates on a city-approved route that we cannot deviate from.

Downtown Appleton: we recommend a minimum of 8, and a maximum of 15. The closer your group is to full capacity the lower the per person price is.

Wooden Nickel, Appleton Beer Factory, and Ambassadors. There is flexibility to go to other places and that can be coordinated with your tour guide.
