Loved this tour! A nice way to escape the hustle & bustle of the shops and learn too a lot more about the island than you ever knew before. The tour guy we had ( which I am sure is the same with all if the tour guides)was very knowledgeable, and the price for the horse drawn tour was well... More

My friends and I have visited Mackinac Island four times and have taken the Carriage tours. It is a wonderful way to see the Island, very relaxing. The drivers are very informed and make the trip enjoyable. There are stops along the way, so that you can get out and explore the Butterfly House, Fort, etc., and then catch the... More

The tour was very informative and it covers a very large area. The guide tells you local history as you go, and there's a pit-stop halfway so you can grab food, drinks or gifts.

White wedding carriage. Driver in black coat and top hat. Tourists were taking pictures of our carriage. Driver answered all of our questions and was very knowledgable. Couldn't have asked for a better tour. Beautiful scenery.

This trip was a girls weekend. We had a couple of elderly people with us that couldn't get around that well and this carriage ride allowed them to see most of the scenes. And the last stop was at The Grand Hotel for lunch. The only con was that we were cramped in the seats and there was not anything... More

We took the 1 1/2 hour carriage tour of the Island and it was excellent for $24.50 each. The driver was engaging and the tour very comfortable. They have a choice of a private tour for 2-4 at a price of $120 but the tour is only for an hour and I doubt you can see as much in an... More

We were there off season and it was a very cold day. Rate were higher than we had read about and all but one of the stops of the tour were closed. there were blankets available and the guide was talkative. will probably try it again.
