LET’S KEEP IT FRESH, PURE MICHIGAN!
The State of Michigan in the American Midwest is known as The Great Lakes State, with an international airport in Detroit.
Travellers from the UK are blessed with two daily
direct flights via London with Delta Virgin Atlantic.
With a brand-new flight introduced by Icelandair, the opportunity to travel via Iceland is also an attractive one.
With the longest freshwater coastline in the United States, pristine beaches, lakes that feel like oceans, glorious sunrises and sunsets, travellers who want to experience the best of the outdoors, the snow-capped peaks, fresh powder, water sports and abundance of natural wilderness Michigan will be a revelation. The skies, free of light pollution also make it the perfect place to observe night-time skies scattered with stars, and daytime skies that are the deepest of blue.
Iconic cities, open roads and picturesque towns, Michigan is blessed with attractions that provide visitors with an experience of what might be called “The Real America”.
If taste is high on the agenda, the food and drink offering is of the highest quality. Michigan prides itself on locally sourced produce, with a strong farm to fork culture and caters for the most discerning tastes.
The home of Motown, Detroit continues to attract music enthusiasts to the world famous and revamped Hitsville USA recording studios, where it all began. This vibrant city has regained its former place in the top five places to visit in the US, home to attractions such as the Henry Ford Museum of American Innovation. The huge twelve- acre site is more than just a car museum, it is an indoor
and outdoor educational experience with its collection of cars, objects, and houses, documenting life in early America.
One can visit the Wright brothers’ bicycle shop, Thomas Edison’s laboratory, the very bus that Rosa Parks sat in when making her protest, and the Lincoln Continental which carried John F Kennedy the day he was assassinated...
Detroit also has one of the largest theatre districts in the US outside Broadway and is home to major baseball football and hockey teams.
The Upper Peninsula is popular all year round but this heavily forested area with mountains in the west has world class winter sports and is the birthplace of snowboarding.
