The Perfect Day in Asheville, North Carolina

Asheville is one of the greatest places on the planet, home to a vibrant downtown and nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains. Your Perfect Day itinerary includes the best of what's around.

9:00am: They say you can't swing a kayak in Asheville without hitting a yoga instructor. Discover the outdoors and healing arts with a yoga and bellyak escape courtesy of Vestigo.

12:30pm: Enjoy great food and even better beer at Barley's Taproom & Pizzeria, a downtown institution since 1994. Reflective of Asheville itself, it's a place "where suit and tie meet tie die."

2:00pm: Go on a shopping spree at Diamond Brand Outdoors, Western North Carolina's original and oldest outdoor gear shop. Consistently ranked as one of the top independent outdoor retailers in the nation, a team of experts will make sure you'll fit in with the locals who get dressed for a day on the trail or a night on the town in pretty much the same threads.

4:00pm: Check into your Aloft Asheville Downtown for a night of exceptional service and jet-setting style. Enjoy the exciting urban conveniences of downtown with a breathtaking mountain backdrop within walking distance to dozens of restaurants, bars, music venues, art galleries, and shops.

7:00pm: Enter the Conundrum, Asheville's unique theatrical take on escape rooms. Can you decode the clues? Can you crack the puzzles? Can you deduce the culprit?

9:00pm: Take in a show and dance the night away at The Orange Peel, named one of the Top 5 Rock Clubs in the nation by Rolling Stone. Asheville's known for marching to the beat of its own drum and the night's music could be the hottest tour in the nation, a local showcase, and everything in between.

11:30pm: Have a nightcap on the rooftop bar of Social Lounge. Asheville's #1 Cocktail Lounge also serves late night bites to enjoy as you watch the movement on the streets from your perch.
