Door County, Wisconsin
Mackinac Island, Michigan great lakes cruises 2023
Mackinac Island, Michigan
Door County, Wisconsin. Found on the eponymous Door County Peninsular, between Lake Michigan and Green Bay, this destination is a growing favorite among all sorts of Great Lakes travelers for 2023. Synonymous with cherries, many of the greatest varieties in North America stem from the county. Festivals like Jacksonport's annual Cherry Fest only reinforce the fact, while acres of wineries, quaint shops selling handmade wares, and numerous state parks offer even more to do in Door County. Visit Door County with Viking's Great Lakes Collection Cruise.

​
Mackinac Island, Michigan. A staple of Great Lakes cruising, Mackinac Island continues to grow in tourism for 2023. The island's claim to fame is its lack of motor vehicles. With everyone on bicycle or horse, you'll feel taken back in time. Over the years, Mackinac Island has been a vacationing destination for politicians and celebrities, including John F. Kennedy, Vladimir Putin, and Mark Twain. It was also the setting of the 1980 drama Somewhere In Time, starring Jane Seymour and Christopher Reeve. Visit Mackinac Island with Victory's Great Lakes Grand Discovery Cruise.
