Indulge a Love of Spirits, Stogies and Travel with Tours and Activities from Viator.com
San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) August 28, 2013 -- The team at Viator.com, the leading resource for researching and booking tours and activities worldwide, is thinking outside the box (of wine) and is highlighting a select group of tours for travelers to sip their stronger spirits in style. From learning the finer points of fermentation and distilling to tasting such libations as whiskey, rum and sake, travelers to destinations like Brooklyn, San Juan and Edinburgh can enjoy their favorite varietals, along with a few suggestions for a first-hand look at custom hand-rolled cigar making as well. After all, cigars and spirits often go hand in hand.
