Summer is here and the time is right for ice cream in the streets (thanks, Bruce Springsteen…). Celebrate National Ice Cream Day with us – join us for LIICT West on Sunday, July 21st, 2024 – Long Island Ice Cream Tours (LIICT), now in its 14th year, will again this summer tour Long Island sampling the sweetness of fresh, homemade ice cream. Each day lasts about seven hours, sampling from the shops on Long Island that make their ice cream on their premises.

Think of it as a bar crawl, but where no one ever got arrested from trying a lot of ice cream.

Our next tour is LIICT West, which will be held on Sunday, July 21st, starting at 10:00am. We will begin at 10:00am at LICS Ice Cream in Northport, and includes stops at Alkemy (made-to-order in front of us), Gelateria dei Colteli (old-world authentic gelato), Hildebrandt’s (a great place for ice cream and food), Smusht (an ice cream sandwich shop), and Sweet Treats by the Wharf (family-owned shop on the water in Port Washington).

Registration includes an official LIICT tour shirt — which entitles participants to special discounts — and many of the shops offer special flavors or creations for the day. All shops on LIICT are locally-owned and create their ice cream on-premise. This unique event also helps the local economy by supporting our fellow Long Island neighbors, their businesses and their families. In past years, our tours have been covered by local media including network broadcast news, and appeared in a variety of print media. And we were just covered in an article by Newsday online (https://www.newsday.com/lifestyle/restaurants/long-island-ice-cream-tour-vwh8gueo)
