Hop on a Cannabis Tour

If you want something truly unique for the cannabis enthusiast in your life, look no further than cannabis tours. These recently popular experiences take cannabis enthusiasts to a higher level of travel by providing cannabis at the beginning of the excursion or encouraging tourists to bring their own weed. Then, you’ll generally jump on a tour bus where consumption is allowed and visit cannabis-related destinations, such as a cannabis grow house or ranch.

Cannabis tours are most common in California and Oregon, but you’ll find them in other states where cannabis is legal, too.
