Loved the tour and make sure you book in advance. They give samples too! Great time overall.

As an icon in the business, it is worth visiting once. You can view the production area, but everything is encased. So you don't really see them making ice cream. The video is fun and the guide is entertaining.

Very fun factory tour. The tour was informative and funny at the same time. The gift shop was also nice. I recommend going to the flavor graveyard while here.
Down a quiet street in central Vermont is a mecca for ice cream lovers: the original Ben & Jerry's factory! While they've expanded production to a second factory elsewhere in Vermont, you can still tour the original factory. When you arrive, check in on Four Square for a complimentary tour ticket (otherwise it's $4 for adults). You'll watch a short film about the history of the company, see part of the manufacturing floor and even get to sample a new flavor! It's fun and kitschy and a must do for ice cream lovers. On your way out, make sure you stop by the Flavor Graveyard to pay homage to your favorite discontinued flavors.
