Calling all who love mimosas and enjoying downtime with friends! After a long week at work, much can be said for curating an adventure well in advance of the weekend. We say it never hurts to have a little fun to look forward to and get us over the hump in the middle of the week! If this sounds like you… The City of Oaks (a.k.a. the North Carolina state capital) has a mimosas and brunch excursion you’ll want to check out.

The Great Raleigh Trolley celebrates all things Raleigh with a variety of tours offered throughout the year.
