Day 4 – Sault Ste. Marie to Mackinac Is.
Cross the Mighty Mac five-mile bridge that links Michigan’s Upper Peninsula.  Ferry over to Historic Mackinac Island.  A horse and buggy carriage will carry us around on a charming tour of the island.  Mackinac Island has seemingly remained untouched, as it was when the first European settlers came here about three centuries ago.  No motorized vehicles are allowed on the island so you must travel by horse and buggy or bicycle.  Enjoy a spectacular luncheon buffet at the famous Grand Hotel.  The remainder of the day is at your leisure to enjoy the surrounding activities, shops, and scenery.  Your hotel is located across from the ferry to make your return from the Island at your leisure.  Some may want to take in the free laser show at Mackinaw Crossings.
