We recently took the tour and found it really boring. It's more for the 65+ crowd. I took the tour 15 years ago and found it more interesting. Today it has a differnt route and too much of it covered wooded streets, much less scenic than years ago. Also, the tour was way too long. The tour picks you up... more
I come to the island every year for the Lilac Festival and I adore the carriage tours. It gives you a chance to sit & relax as well as see things you normally wouldn't see by walking. The guides are very friendly and funny! I do wish we could stop and take some better pictures,but I understand how things got... more
if you want to see all aspects of the island & hear some interesting & funny stories then you must take a carriage tour. They are pricey, but well worth it. I didn't even rent a bike, since the tour took me everywhere I wanted to go anyway. & it stops at the butterfly house & you can look around... more
This tour is divided into 2 parts. The horses need the rest & time to get water on a HOT day. The first part was from the road by the ferry. The tour guide/driver was pretty good with the technical part & impressed us with all the work that goes into taking care of the horses. Nothing impressive about what... more
We took the full day tour of the Island in late August. We thought the tour was great. I had my two daughters (age 11 and 13) and my niece (age 12) along with me. We all had a fantastic time! The drivers we had (total of 4 because you always switched wagons after each stop along the tour route)... more
We spent full day on the island and took the tour on the beginning of our stay to get the general idea of the island and see the most interesting sites. Our drivers on both legs of the trip were very mechanical with manufactured speeches and not much else to say. First driver didn’t even speak English and we couldn’t... more
Since we have visited Mackinac Island several times, and taken the regular tour likewise, this time we arranged for a personal tour, with just the 4 of us on board the carriage. The tour lasted one hour in length, though you can make it longer. The driver was very friendly, knowledgeable, and more personable-meaning she dished up some island stories... more
Taking a carriage tour of Mackinac Island is a must! The drivers are very personable and knowledegable, full of interesting information about this spectacular piece of real estate. Their love of the horses is evident, and I felt a special affefction for the animals (despite the smell that I just couldn't get used to, even after 4 1/2 days on... more
