The Best One-Tank Trips from Kansas City

Enjoy these fun trips near Kansas City

If you are looking for some fun trips near Kansas City, there are some destinations that will satisfy the tastes of virtually anyone. These “one tank trips” will not cost you much in the way of transportation costs, but offer varied ways to have fun. Whether you are an enthusiast of science, skiing, or history there are quick trips available to you.

Visit Branson

One of the favorite destinations of these short trips is nearby Branson, MO. It offers a wide range of activities and attractions that will delight your entire family. In addition to the live entertainment that Branson is known for, with shows that cover the full spectrum of music genres, there are exciting shopping destinations, outdoor recreation including fishing, go-carts and ziplines, and other attractions such as museums.

One of the more unusual museums in Branson is the Wonderworks museum, which legend says was picked up by a tornado. Professor Wonder was running an experiment to harness energy in his lab, and a tornado picked up the lab and blew it hundreds of miles and dropped it in an upside-down position in Branson. This museum is full of hands-on experiments, exhibits, and displays that will delight everyone in your family, regardless of age. The Wonderworks museum also features exhibits related to the US Army and has a NASA exhibit for space enthusiasts.

Branson has lodging available in all price ranges if you want to spend the night, and of course, has restaurants that will cater to everybody’s taste buds. If you have not been to Branson, this is one trip that you should put on your checklist of quick trips you make soon.

Head to Omaha

A trip to Omaha to visit the Henry Doorly Zoo and Aquarium offers a delightful way to spend a day acquainting yourself with the animals and sea life exhibits and is another of these quick trips that will not break your budget.

Winter sports in Platte County

If winter sports tickle your fancy, the Snow Creek Ski and Tubing Resort in Platte County has venues for all ages and skill levels for skiing, snowboarding, and tubing. The resort offers equipment rentals and lessons for the new skier or snowboarder. The lodge is open during the winter months and they do have snowmaking equipment, so the slopes are covered during the cold weather months.

Spooky Excelsior Springs

If scary ghost stories and paranormal adventures are up your alley, consider a trip to visit the Elms Hotel in Excelsior Springs, MO., with its storied history going back to the 1880s.

Legend has it that the third floor of the hotel has a ghost of a woman that roams the halls looking for her child, and a maid from the 1920s that also roams the third floor playing tricks on guests. It is also said that the lap pool area of the hotel is haunted by many spirits, including the spirit of a gambler that was supposedly killed by the pool during prohibition. The Elms Hotel offers tours to guide and entertain guests on haunted tours of the property.
