Bus Tour Descriptions: Looking for an exciting and scenic escape this Labor Day Weekend? Join Travel Treasures and Tours for our biggest sightseeing trip of the year—a 3-day Western Michigan Sightseeing Bus Tour that combines natural beauty, local charm, history, and fun into one unforgettable experience. Whether you’re searching for a Saugatuck Sightseeing Bus Tour, a unique alternative to the Sleeping Bear Dunes Sightseeing Bus Tour, or simply a well-rounded weekend getaway in Michigan, this tour is for you!
Highlights of the Trip:
Cruise aboard the Aquastar – Set sail on a beautiful, fully-narrated cruise along the Lake Michigan shoreline. This relaxing ride offers panoramic views of the water, shoreline architecture, and coastal scenery that make Michigan summers so magical.
Lunch aboard a Historic LST Ship – Step aboard one of only two LST (Landing Ship, Tank) vessels in the world still in its original WWII configuration. These massive flat-bottomed ships played a critical role in Allied amphibious operations. Enjoy a delicious lunch while exploring a rare piece of American military history—a truly one-of-a-kind experience you won’t find on other tours.
Saugatuck Dunes Sightseeing Bus Tour – Experience the thrill of a professionally guided dune ride in Saugatuck, where the towering sand dunes and forested trails create a ride that’s part rollercoaster, part scenic tour. Often compared to the Sleeping Bear Sand Dunes Sightseeing Bus Tour, this version offers a more private, up-close view of Michigan’s iconic dune landscape—without the long travel time. You’ll also have entrance to the park, time to explore the Dunes Visitor Center, and time to enjoy Saugatuck’s delightful restaurants and boutiques, known for their artistic flair and small-town charm.
Casino Fun at Gun Lake – Try your luck at Gun Lake Casino, where you’ll receive $10 in free slot play and $10 in food credit. Whether you’re a seasoned gamer or just looking for some excitement, this stop adds an extra layer of fun to your trip.
Two Included Lunches – In addition to your Drury Inn meals, you’ll enjoy a boxed lunch during your time at the Saugatuck Dunes and a freshly prepared meal during your historic LST visit, both included as part of your tour.
