Council Bluffs was considered the start of the ‘Mormon Trail’, and just 8 miles from Omaha, where activities, food and drink are abundant. Take any number of walking tours. Stroll cobblestone streets in an Old Market History tour, or a True Crime Stories tour. Check out the Henry Doorly Zoo – renowned for its breeding of endangered species. The Durham Museum – an old Union Pacific Railroad station – is a National Historic Landmark, considered one of Omaha’s most unique treasures, and one of the best examples of art deco architecture in the country.
