Join us for an immersive experience, as we learn all about one of Shores & Islands Ohio’s most educational AND entertaining opportunities. In this episode, Jill and Dayton talk to Dick Ries, one of the owners of Firelands Adventure Tours. What brought these small business owners to Sandusky and how did their first venture Segway (misspelling intentional) into a full-service guided tour business? Learn how pivoting their business model opened up several options for serving more customers, covering more geographic area, and expanding their offerings, while still doing what they loved – giving guided, historical informational tours about the region. Find out what kinds of tours they offer and what they mean when they say it’s a fully immersive experience. This year-round attraction even offers special holiday and unique pop-up tours, like one they are offering for the upcoming total solar eclipse. Also, why Firelands Adventure Tours? Dick tells us a bit of history on the word “Firelands,” what it means and why it’s so prevalent in the Shores & Islands Ohio region.
