SATURDAY BREAKFAST — Need that caffeine fix? Toledo is home to numerous local coffee shops. Grab a muffin and iced coffee at Brew Coffee Bar or pop into Plate 21 for a matcha, latte or a fresh pour-over.

With over 30,000 works, you can enjoy an outdoor stroll in the sculpture garden, discover outstanding works of art inside the main museum, or marvel at the ancient and contemporary pieces housed in the Glass Pavilion.

SATURDAY AFTERNOON — Toledo offers plenty of hands-on entertainment to keep kids of all ages amused. Defy gravity on the high wire cycle at the Imagination Station; navigate a real ship wreck at the National Museum of the Great Lakes or hit the Slam Dunk Zone at Urban Air Adventure Park.
SATURDAY DINNER — Enjoy one of the best views in Toledo with authentic Italian cuisine from Zia’s or try the catch of the day at The Real Seafood. Located at The Docks, both offer breathtaking views of the cityscape.
SATURDAY NIGHT — Press your luck on the slots at Hollywood Casino or dance to some great music in their H Lounge. Grab a late night martini or craft cocktail at Toledo Spirits. Wind down with a walk under the lights at the Town Center at Levis Commons before heading back to your hotel after a fun filled day.
SUNDAY BRUNCH — Bacon & eggs, waffles, parfaits or pancakes? Luckily, you can have any or all of the above whether you are an early riser or late sleeper. Sip on a flight of mimosas in The Garden at Focaccias's or grab a delicious bite at Monroe Street Diner.
SUNDAY MORNING — Before leaving town, the Toledo Zoo and Aquarium is a must see. The aquarium houses over 3,000 aquatic animals in 178,000 gallons of water. Feeling adventurous? Try out the touch tank containing various stingrays and small sharks, or hop on the aerial rope and zip line course? If adrenaline is not your thing, you can make some major memories feeding the Zoo’s Masai giraffe herd or the parakeets in the Keet Retreat.
