My husband and I took our 3 kids on a quick trip to Hot Springs in February. We found this Food Tour and thought it would be a lot of fun, but they didn't offer a tour on the nights we would be there. I sent them a message to see if they could recommend a place to eat and they ended up putting together a tour just for our family! It was SO MUCH FUN! Tammy was our guide and was full of energy and excitement as she took us around to some of her favorite restaurants. We loved all of the dishes she picked for us and, even more, we loved all of the history and stories she told us about Hot Springs and the local eateries. Will definitely book another food tour when we go back!

There were 7 in our group which was a perfect size for getting to know one-another as we sampled restaurant food, heard about the history of bathhouse row and walked about a mile. Tammy was a fun tour guide and was well organized. Just a really pleasant evening...

Great experience with Tammy! I would certainly come back and introduce new people. Best for people interested in new experiences.

Hot Springs, Arkansas Itinerary: How To Spend an Ideal 3-Day Weekend

Hot Springs, Arkansas Itinerary: How To Spend a 3-Day Weekend

While Hot Springs may be a mystery to some, many local visitors and travelers from nearby states like Texas, Louisiana, and Missouri have been traveling to Hot Springs (yes, it’s actually the name of a city) or “the Valley of the Vapors” for rest and rejuvenation for eons.

Soaking in the famed geological hot springs is said to release any muscle tension or stress from your body. The natural thermal water flows from 47 springs on the western slope of Hot Springs Mountain. These waters flow out of the ground at 147 degrees and are thought to possess medicinal properties. Several early Native American tribes praised these waters as a source of strength.

Bathhouse Row was created in the early 1800s and it has been a wellness destination ever since. In fact, in the late-1800s through the mid-1900s (especially in the 1930s), Hot Springs was a popular place for Al Capone, Frank Costello and other famous mobsters to unwind on Bathhouse Row. It was considered a safe zone and there was a mutual agreement with law enforcement that they could visit unbothered, as long as they didn’t cause trouble. 

With domestic travel becoming so popular given the circumstances of the past year, the reach of Hot Springs visitors has expanded vastly. It’s the perfect destination to cleanse any lingering stress from the past year. No mob activity necessary. 

If you’re considering spending a long weekend in Hot Springs, Arkansas, we’ve mapped out the perfect 3 days for you below. You can also take a look at current flight deals into the Hot Springs area (HOT or LIT airports) , and see recommended hotels ranging from luxury to quaint bed and breakfasts .

Hot Springs, Arkansas Itinerary: How To Spend a 3-Day Weekend

Depending on your starting point, you will most likely fly into Little Rock . Car rentals and services are available to take you to your final destination an hour away in Hot Springs! 

As you drive, take in the Ouachita Mountains, Hot Springs Mountain, and Diamond Lakes area from 1,256 feet above sea level at the Hot Springs Mountain Tower . Not only does it offer a bird’s eye view of the National Park and the natural springs that provide the thermal mineral water for all the spas in downtown Hot Springs, but it also serves as a museum. 

Before checking into your hotel, take a quick hike on the Northwoods Trail . While there are 26 miles of world-class mountain biking and hiking trails, there are also loops that are 4 miles or less to choose from. If you are looking for something more athletic, the Northwoods system (home to the annual Gudrun MTB Festival each November) includes Green, Blue and Black single track, multi-track, flow trails, jump lines and the Lucky 13 expert section. The Cedar Glades trailhead includes a bike skills park. 

Check in to Lookout Point Lakeside Inn . The lakeside setting is a place to zen out and enter a meditative state on the hammocks and lounge chairs dotted along rolling hills and manicured gardens overlooking the water. A garden path leads to a secluded waterfall to settle near. Inside, use the spa products in your in-room jacuzzi and then slip into the provided robe and pour a glass of wine to enjoy next to your fireplace. If you are feeling social, pop downstairs for happy hour. Bath House Row Winery is served alongside a lovely spread of cheese and fruit, flatbreads and other specials. 

The inn offers just about any outdoor activity you can think of—waterfront yoga, kayaking, canoeing, pedal boating, hiking their state park trailhead entrance, ziplining, and even diamond and crystal hunting. Your workout routine will not be put on the back burner on this vacation.

3 Day Long Weekend Itinerary for Visiting Hot Springs Arkansas

Wake up refreshed and grab some breakfast at the inn or grab a smoothie from Ram Nutrition . 

You’ve seen the National Park from above, but make sure you check it out on foot. The 47 mineral hot springs, pumping one million gallons of water a day, are showcased in protected forested land. The Goat Rock Trail is a 2.4 mile out and back hike that unfolds into a sea of wildflowers and vistas of Indian Mountain and east Hot Springs. 

For lunch, fresh salads and lite fare can be found at Cafe 1217 with highlights such as the Ancho Almond Quinoa Salad with fresh raspberries or the Lemon Basil Chicken Salad with sun-dried tomatoes.

Enjoy a traditional bath at Buckstaff Bathhouse . Built in the Roman Gothic style of architecture, the Buckstaff opened in 1912, and currently, it remains the only operational traditional bathhouse of the original eight on Bathhouse Row . Unlike any spa service you might be used to, a traditional bath includes the use of thermal mineral water in a whirlpool mineral bath with a loofah mitt scrub, then a series of different saunas and water therapies before a 20-minute full-body massage. Altogether the treatment takes about an hour and a half.

Walk a few steps to enjoy a refreshing beer at Superior Bathhouse Brewery and Distillery . As mentioned above, many of the bathhouses are no longer operational but are considered landmarks and have stayed aesthetically the same since the late 1800s/early 1900s. After lying vacant for 30 years, the Superior Bathhouse was re-imagined as a brewery, craft beer tasting room, full-service restaurant and event venue. Most interesting is that they were the world’s first to utilize the thermal spring water as a main ingredient. 

For this evening, have dinner at Eden in Hotel Hale . Another great bathhouse modification, Hotel Hale is a newly restored boutique hotel that includes nine suites right on Bathhouse Row. The therapeutic waters can be taken advantage of in each suite. The restaurant, Eden, has an eclectic decor vibe with black and white tile floors, set against bright teal walls and a massive skylight from which hanging plants cascade above the tables.

Enjoy a plant-based breakfast at Kollective Coffee + Tea . Kollective is a 3rd-wave coffee and tea house that strives to use organic and non-GMO ingredients.

Then, stroll through Garvan Woodland Gardens . Nestled in the picturesque Ouachita Mountains, the 210-acre gardens are a gift from local industrialist and philanthropist Verna Cook Garvan. Each turn is stunning and serene—from the powerful nature-driven chapel and the floating treehouse of renowned architect E. Fay Jones (who honed his skills as an architect working alongside Frank Lloyd Wright) to the manicured Japanese gardens and koi ponds. Make sure to say hi to Handsome George the peacock. 

Enjoy a mineral bath at Quapaw Baths . The newest bath and spa to Hot Springs, Quapaw offers four large capacity thermal mineral water pools of varying temperatures, as well as a recently opened private bathing area. Take breaks and grab a cold beverage or a snack at the canteen. They offer spa services as well, or you can opt to check out the brand new Astral Spa at Oaklawn Luxury Resort . The crystal-infused spa treatments are uniquely Hot Springs—Geologists say that Arkansas and Brazil have the best quality quartz on Earth.

At this point, you should be so relaxed that you could forgo the airport and float home.

Plan Your "Go-Getter" Trip to Hot Springs National Park, Arkansas

hot springs food tour

This one is for the go-getters. The must-doers. It’s for those travelers looking to pack every bit of local culture, history, and experiences possible into their itineraries.

Forget extravagant dining and luxurious lodging—you're looking to cut corners on the necessities. When on the go in a new place with a limited time, there are bigger fish to fry. And when in Hot Springs, Arkansas, there is so much surrounding you, you won't want anything less than a packed itinerary.

So the question is: How much can you fit into your Spa City adventure? And if this sounds like a challenge, that's because it is, Go-Getter! Take a gander at what just three days here could look like for you:

Welcome to Hot Springs, Arkansas! Let's get into what it's all about, hitting all essential spots over the next three days. Are you ready, go-getter?

• 3 p.m. - Hotel check-in.

• 4 p.m. - Take a scenic drive up to West Mountain. Do you want to see a little of what Hot Springs National Park is all about? Take your time at each of the beautiful overlooks to downtown Hot Springs and the National Park along the way.

hot springs food tour

• 5 p.m. - Take a stroll downtown. Exploring what you saw from the mountain view, head to the sidewalks of downtown and venture into the unique shops. You'll love the numerous art galleries showcasing local works; there's a little something for everyone. Try the Bathhouse Soapery, where you'll find homemade soaps. Maybe It's All About Rocks is more your speed, housing a wide variety of metaphysical crystals and rocks.

hot springs food tour

• 7 p.m. - Dinner. SQZBX (pronounced squeezebox) is a delicious quick option within walking distance from downtown and your next destination! Enjoy a fresh-made pizza and beer brewed in-house.

hot springs food tour

• 8 p.m. - Catch a Maxwell Blade Magic Show . Have a seat in the seats of the historic Malco Theatre to enjoy a mind-bending magic show by none other than grand illusionist Maxwell Blade. Prepare to be genuinely impressed and left scratching your head after witnessing a mind-boggling performance. And don't let magic show fool you into thinking it's something for the mere enjoyment of children.

hot springs food tour

• 10 p.m. - Are you tired yet? I sure hope not, because there's so much more fun to be had! End your first successful day at Oaklawn Racing Casino Resort playing slots, games of skill, or enjoying one of the numerous restaurant/bar options inside this smokeless casino. And a plus: There's also a good chance live music can be found somewhere inside.

hot springs food tour

Yesterday we explored West Mountain. Today, we'll take on North Mountain. But don't worry, Go-Getter, it's a little more involved than just a scenic drive .

• 8 a.m. - Breakfast. Get caffeinated and enjoy a light yet filling breakfast before getting this busy day going! Kollective Coffee & Tea is within walking distance from your first destination of the day.

hot springs food tour

• 9 a.m. - Hike North Mountain. Hit the 1.5-mile hiking trail off Fountain Street leading up to the Hot Springs Mountain Tower . Once arrived, ride 216 feet up the elevator of the tower and take in the stunning panoramic views of the Ouachita Mountains, Hot Springs Mountain, and Diamond Lakes Area. Before heading back down the mountain, visit the white pagoda slightly downhill from the tower for a few more serene views. Tip: Fill up your water jug before and after your hike at Happy Hollow Spring.

hot springs food tour

• 11:30 a.m. - Take a bath. After hiking down the mountain, you'll be back in Downtown Hot Springs, probably ready to take a load off. There's no better way to do this than to spend the afternoon at one of the bathhouses. Hot Springs is famous for its thermal waters thought to be medicinal, so go ahead and soak in a private bath and massage at Buckstaff Bathhouse , or bring a swimsuit along for a soak in the public thermal water pool at Quapaw Bathhouse .

hot springs food tour

• 1 p.m. - Lunch. Get a quick burger, hot dog, or something of the sort, and top it off with a dairy treat — you've earned it! King Kone will be on your way to your next destination and is a local treasure.

hot springs food tour

• 2 p.m. - Garvan Woodland Gardens. Tis' the season of the tulips in this massive botanical garden. Surrounded by incredible nature, any trip to Garvan in March or April will permit 150,000 tulips to be enjoyed at peak bloom! Tip: Look for the four-story treehouse, the glass chapel, and George the peacock.

hot springs food tour

• 4 p.m. - Learn the history of the bathhouses. Do you remember that super nice and relaxing soak you took earlier? Well, we're going to explore that a bit more. In the Fordyce Bathhouse , you'll find a free three-story museum. Take yourself on a self-guided tour to see how the bathing was once done in Hot Springs. See vintage contraptions used for medicinal purposes, clothing, artifacts, and more.

hot springs food tour

• 5:30 p.m. - Make A Narrow Escape. Before leaving downtown, meet some robots and put your mind to the test spending an hour trying to get out of an escape room .

hot springs food tour

• 7 p.m. - Dinner. Stop through The Hungry Greek's drive-thru for a quick but absolutely decadent meal on your way out of downtown to your next destination.

hot springs food tour

• 8 p.m. - Putt-putt at the Cove. Play a round of putt-putt at Pirate's Cove Adventure Golf to end the day. In this 18-hole course, you'll putt along streams, caves, and around lots of pirates. This is a classic Hot Springs staple and a ton of fun.

hot springs food tour

Time flies when you're having fun! This is the last day; let's make it count, go-getter.

• 8 a.m. - Hotel Check-out and breakfast. Give the Track Kitchen at Oaklawn a try! There are a ton of options at budget prices. Tip: Keep an eye out; you might be eating next to a famous jockey.

hot springs food tour

• 9 a.m. - Rent a bike from the Hot Springs Bicycle Touring Company. Whether you're an avid biker or haven't been on a bike in years, don't worry, we're about to have some fun. (And if you have a different form of transportation on wheels — i.e., skateboard, roller skates, scooter — any will suffice!) Allow me to introduce you to the Hot Springs Creek Greenway, which will veer off to your right when leaving Hot Springs Bicycle Touring Company . This scenic trail will take you to Shady Grove Road near Oaklawn, but there are a few things to note on the way. First, check out the skate park on Valley Street. Which ramps can you conquer on the bike? Once done here, hop back on the trail. You'll pass the beautiful Majestic Park (and maybe catch a glimpse of a few baseball games if you're lucky). Then you'll come upon Hollywood Park. Stop here. Park your bike and explore this truly unique park. From the giant wood-carved wizard to stone castle-like structures, this park is something of a "far away land." Shaded by trees, you'll walk along this beautiful park observing artistic installations placed throughout and crossing over streams. Once done, hop back on the trail and keep going until you reach the trail's end, where the boulders cut you off! Now turn around and head back, enjoying all the beauty you passed along the way one more time.

hot springs food tour

• 12 p.m. - Lunch. Head to Capo's Tacos for lunch and margarita to refuel before doing one last thing...

hot springs food tour

• 1 p.m. - Dig for crystals at Ron Coleman Mining . Before getting on the road, there's just one more thing left to do: digging for treasure to take back with you. Did you know the Ouachita Mountains surrounding Hot Springs is where some of the world's largest deposits of quartz crystals can be found? It takes a little digging and luck that you're looking in the right spot. Try your hand at it in Coleman's mine, where they guarantee you'll dig up enough quartz to cover the cost of digging, or else you'll receive a credit to use in the gift shop. And before you leave, feel free to give their zipline a go to really end things on a high note.

hot springs food tour

• 3 p.m. - Now, go-getter — we head home and rest.

(Note: Don't leave us out of your fun! Photograph your journey and post it with #VisitHotSprings.)

Lodging and dining

hot springs food tour

And finally, we'll get into the nitty-gritty of lodging and dining.

A few quality lodging locations in a central location include Microtel by Wyndham and Best Western Winners Circle . Both are located near downtown and Oaklawn Racing Casino Resort . Home2 Suites by Hilton and DoubleTree by Hilton ; both located off Lake Hamilton. And Country Inn by Radisson, La Quinta Inn by Wyndham, and Hampton Inn, all conveniently located off Central Avenue.

As for some additional options for quick bites to squeeze in, you can't go wrong with the following mouthwatering drive thru's and curbside pickup's: Chick-fil-A , David's Burgers , Dairy Queen , Zaxby's , Jimmy John's , Chicken Express, Dunkin' Donuts , Freddy's , Schlotzsky's , Tropical Smoothie Cafe , Bailey's Dairy Treat , Stubby's and Wok Express .

That's it. That's the skinny on making the absolute most out of your time when experiencing Hot Springs in a limited amount of time. Now make me proud, go forth and conquer, go-getter!

Beautiful & Relaxing Eco Termales Hot Springs

In favour of supporting entrepreneurs? Eco Termales is a family-run project in Arenal , Costa Rica that has been built over several years of focused and hard work. Four geothermal pools vary in temperature, with the coolest being 91º F (32 C) and the hottest being 105º F (41 C). One of the pools has a refreshing, cascading waterfall that you can stand beneath — enjoy the exhilaration without the usual chill. Paths laid with volcanic silt run throughout the complex, connecting the pools, changing rooms, and restaurant — making it easy and safe for you to navigate the pools and property as a whole.

Doña Mireya, Eco Termales’ onsite cook, prepares wonderful food in a traditional Costa Rican kitchen. The restaurant — which is now 18 years old — used to be the Hidalgo family’s own house. Today, the restaurant still maintains its colonial architecture and familial environment; the Hidalgo family prepares meals on the first floor and sleeps on the second floor.

Eco Termales is a wonderfully authentic environment that offers both privacy and tranquility within the Costa Rican rainforest. Come and enjoy this relaxing sanctuary for yourself.
