Only in Minneapolis: a city with a second, warmer city floating one floor above it. The Skyway Walking Tour explores the largest contiguous skyway system in the world — more than nine miles of second-story walkways linking 80 city blocks — and every one of its 62 reviewers gave it five stars.
The skyways were born in the 1950s to save downtown retail from the suburban boom, and they grew into a glass-and-steel ecosystem of shops, restaurants and architectural treasures. Your guide strings the best of it together, dipping inside and out to catch the landmarks, the views and the stories hidden in plain sight at eye level.
It is a great tour in any season, but in a Minnesota winter it is pure genius: all the downtown highlights, none of the frostbite. From $79 per person.
