Summer isn’t over (not even close) if you like homemade ice cream! Join us for LIICT East on Saturday, August 10th, 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 tour 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 enjoying a lot of ice cream.
Our last tour of 2024 is LIICT East, which will be held on Saturday, August 10. Starting at 10:00am, the tour will travel and sample the creamy goodness at ice cream stores throughout Suffolk County. It begins at Snowflake Ice Cream Shoppe in Riverhead, and includes stops at McNulty’s Ice Cream Parlor (family-owned), Mia’s Ice Cream Kitchen (at its new location), Strong Island Ice Cream, Northport Sweet Shop (homemade ice cream at an old-fashioned luncheonette), and Henry’s Confectionery (homemade ice cream and a great luncheonette)..
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 make their ice cream on-premises. So LIICT 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. This year we were covered in an article by Newsday online (https://www.newsday.com/lifestyle/restaurants/long-island-ice-cream-tour-vwh8gueo)
Newsday covered us with a two-page spread in their July 17, 2024 issue (pages 46-47) see below.
And also, we were covered with TWO segments on News12 Long Island. One was only on the cable outlet, and the other is here. https://longisland.news12.com/long-island-ice-cream-tours-celebrate-national-ice-cream-day
