Lake Michigan Circle Tour

Enjoy a tour of the oldest continually operating stadium in the NFL! Named after the team’s founder, Earl “Curly” Lambeau, it has been the home of the Packers since 1957. The stadium is known for its iconic atmosphere and the enduring legacy of legendary coaches, such as Vince Lombardi. Our guide reveals storied history and interesting facts, like how they’ve sold out every game since 1960. Be sure to check out the Pro Shop and Hall of Fame in the atrium!

Enjoy incredible eateries and lively street performers in the entertainment hub along Lake Michigan, Navy Pier. We then explore the Windy City with a local guide who details its architectural marvels, cultural treasures, and iconic landmarks. The soaring skyline of magnificent buildings, like Willis Tower, is one of the best in America! We also view the famous “Bean,” the historic Water Tower, Buckingham Fountain, Wrigley Building, and more.

Some of the best scenery unfolds in Peninsula State Park with sights of dense forests, limestone bluffs, a beautiful shoreline, and the iconic Eagle Bluff Lighthouse. Built in 1868, this lighthouse offers a glimpse of yesteryear and still guides ships through the narrow Strawberry Channel. During time at leisure, explore the shops, art galleries, and cozy cafes in the charismatic town of Fish Creek. In Sturgeon Bay, indulge in the area’s spectacular fruit wines with picturesque views at Door Peninsula Winery. Then, head over to the Door County Maritime Museum to browse intricate exhibits, learn how the maritime pioneers worked, and step aboard the restored tugboat, John Purves.

Experience a slower way of life with two tranquil nights on this quaint island, where motor vehicles are prohibited. Enjoy the bygone era of old-world hospitality and charm at the 19th-century Grand Hotel for a one-of-a-kind Grand Luncheon, then relax in a rocking chair on the porch with stunning views. After our horse-drawn carriage tour, you may choose to spend leisure time watching the vibrant sunset, shopping for souvenirs at unique stores, diving into the island’s military past at Fort Mackinac, or tasting famous fudge in the Fudge Capital of the World!

Travel along the shores of Lake Michigan on Pierce Stocking Scenic Drive to discover stunning natural landscapes. This picturesque route winds through towering sand dunes formed over thousands of years by the forces of wind and water. The area is also home to historic sites, including early 19th-century farmsteads, which tell the story of the settlers who once called this place home. Have your camera ready for stops at scenic overlooks where you can see the dramatic meeting of land and the crystal-clear water!

Nestled on Wisconsin’s eastern peninsula, this coastal gem boasts an enchanting blend of natural beauty, rich history, and quaint charm. A must for every visit to Door County is the quintessential dinner experience of a traditional fish boil. This culinary spectacle features freshly caught Lake Michigan whitefish, baby red potatoes, and little white onions that are boiled in a cauldron over an open fire outside. Watch how the Master Boiler throws fuel into the fire for a climatic boil over, the last hurrah before dinner is served. And try a slice of fresh-baked cherry pie for dessert!
