Mackinac Island

Loved Mackinac Island. Well planned. Very poor service at second Hotel. Waited forever on rooms and customer service was sooooo unsympathetic. Rooms were not that nice either.

Great Trip! Tour Manager needs some Public Relations Training. Our tour manager talked too much about non relevant nonsense. She shared about a cousin in a cult, lacked actual historical knowledge, kept referencing the Americans, and joked so much followed by, “Just Kidding “ One example: She said we had to pay for restrooms. Then paused and said, “Just kidding.” People were all digging for money by that time. She confused a lot of older folks. She also would tell us the time to meet followed by several other times she thought of using and by the time she was finished rambling on, no one knew what time was what. She never gave us a moment of silence to visit with our travel buddies or to read or slept on the four hour bus drive. If she caught you visiting with your seat-mate, she would stop and say, “I’ll wait.” She thought she was a stand up comedian. She was frustrating.

I enjoyed getting out and walking around the island. Looking at the homes and the lilacs all around town. The view from the fort was amazing. The Grand Hotel was very cool. Just moving about and exploring.

Loved the botanical garden and history of Detroit music at farewell dinner. Mackinac and Grand Hotel of course was a highlight

The whole trip was memorable. The food was super, the tour guide was extremely knowledgeable, all the accommodations were great.
