The Art of Ice Cream Experience Bike Crawl

What better way to spend an early Sunday afternoon than with a leisurely bike crawl that includes scoops of ice cream and The Art of Ice Cream Experience? LimeBike is providing the rides for the crawl to make it easy for guests to hop on and go. The crawl commences outside the The Art of Ice Cream Experience and moves along the quaint streets of Old Town Scottsdale to a few local ice cream shops, where crawlers stop to enjoy a scoop of cool ice cream before pedaling on to the next stop. The crawl ends at The Art of Ice Cream Experience. The crawl is from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Tickets are $30 for adults and $23 for kids ages 12 and under (this includes admission to The Art of Ice Cream Experience and a scoop of ice cream at each stop along the crawl.)
