Important Notes

  • Traveling for this trip requires some frequent walking, especially at distilleries. Please be prepared to walk up to a half a mile at a time. Walking several miles in a day is common.
  • Travelers under age 21 must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian.
  • UW-Stevens Point Continuing Education does not provide travel insurance, medical, or emergency evacuation and thus you are 100% responsible for these expenses. We advise you purchase travel insurance as soon as possible after registering for a trip because some insurance providers only guarantee certain benefits within a short time after you make a travel deposit. We also advise carrying health insurance while on any tour as well.
  • Travelers may want to consider short-term traveler's insurance that covers baggage, accident/life, trip interruption, trip cancellation, and more. Visit Travel Insurance Review​ to answer any of your travel insurance questions, get tips and advice, or compare different providers.

Please email us at uwspceweb@uwsp.edu to inform us of a cancellation or substitution.
