Don Mitchell's Branson Trip

Day 1	Alberta & Saskatchewan Passengers
North Coach passengers will travel Hwy. 16 east picking up along the way en route to Winnipeg. The South Coach will travel south crossing into North Dakota and spend the night in Fargo.
Day 2	North Coach to Sioux City, IA - South Coach to Council Bluffs, IA
Welcome Manitoba passengers heading due south travelling through South Dakota and Iowa. Sioux City or Council Bluffs is the destination tonight. Fly-option passengers fly from home cities to Kansas City; transfers to hotel are included.
Day 3	All Coaches to Branson, MO
Welcome fly-option passengers. Travelling south the scenery gives way to the Ozark Mountains and our first taste of Branson. After our dinner this evening, our coach will give us a tour of Branson so we can get acclimatized to our new home. The Festival of Lights Trail is on the agenda to get us in the spirit.
Day 4	Branson
A free morning, but we have many optional shows and activities to fill free time or enjoy Branson on your own. It’s your choice. For the last couple of years the hottest special event in Branson is the Daniel O’Donnell Show. He is Ireland’s greatest export. These shows have been sold out for close to a year, but you have great seats reserved! Accolades, acclaim and success; these are some constants that make up Daniel O’Donnell’s life. As each year passes, further achievements come his way. More successful concert tours, more chart records, more television appearances. These days it seems that the successes are no longer surprises and the achievements of Ireland’s most popular, easy-on-the-ear entertainer are taken for granted. Yet the superstar remains as excited as when he first launched his career. This evening another great show, The Presley’s Jubilee, is scheduled. They are the original live country music and comedy show on 76 Country Blvd.
Day 5	Branson
This morning is free to spend as you wish. After lunch we will visit the Silver Dollar City Theme Park. The Christmas lights here are world-famous and the food is interesting too! The Christmas tree featured as a background on this page is a perfect meeting point if you get separated from your companions. Our supper this evening is scheduled at Silver Dollar City. After supper we will enjoy the Bobby Vinton show. Bobby Vinton has been called “the most successful love singer of the Rock-Era.”
Day 6	Branson
More optional activities will be available for this morning. This afternoon you will be treated to the number one show in Branson, Shoji Tabuchi. If you haven’t seen Shoji, than you haven’t seen Branson! His show, his Christmas decorations, even his mens’ and ladies’ rooms are unbelievable. After dinner tonight you will have an evening with Mr. Christmas himself, Andy Williams.
Day 7	Branson
Free Morning. This afternoon you will be seeing Yakov Smirnoff! The famous Russian comedian delivers explosive laughter in a show filled with brilliant special effects, dazzling dancing, amazing juggling, heartfelt moments and just plain fun. Yakov’s entire show is packed with comedic tall tales and witty perceptions, funny facts and huge laughs. Dinner and a great show aboard the Showboat Branson Belle this evening.
Day 8	Branson to St. Joseph, MO
As we leave Branson and the Ozarks behind, we are left with many fond memories. But there is still more to see with a visit to “Precious Moments.” Fly-option passengers overnight Kansas City and then fly home (transfer to airport in the morning is included).
Day 9	St. Joseph to Watertown, SD
After a day of travel and some sights along the way, our home for this evening will be in Watertown . This evening join all passengers, guides & drivers for a WestWorld Tours Farewell Dinner and Show (entertainment by passengers & crew).
Day 10	Watertown to Winnipeg and Minot
The terrain is starting to look more familiar as we get closer to home. The North Coach will make a Duty Free stop before crossing the Canadian border. Sadly, in Winnipeg it’s time to bid adieux to some of our Manitoba friends, ‘til next time! The South coach will have one last night in the USA at Minot , ND.
Day 11	To Saskatchewan
The South Coach will make a quick duty-free stop and then cross the border into Canada! This will be time for us to say goodbye to all of our new friends. Y’all come back now, y’hear!
