Why Michigan Should Be on Every USA Traveller's Wish List

Over the past few days, we've followed our MDs journey through Michigan, from the vineyard-covered landscapes of Traverse City and the timeless charm of Mackinac Island to the vibrant resurgence of Detroit.

One thing became clear—Michigan is one of America's most diverse and underrated destinations. Spectacular Great Lakes scenery, award-winning wineries, historic communities, world-class attractions and genuine Midwestern hospitality combine to create a fly-drive holiday unlike anywhere else in the USA.

Inspired by his journey, we're also delighted to launch our brand-new Cherry Country, Island Life & the Spirit of Detroit itinerary, following the very route he experienced while allowing extra time to fully immerse yourself in each destination.
