Tips for the Tour Escort

Your greatest motorcoach tour is waiting on the shore of the greatest Great Lake, Lake Superior, the world’s largest body of fresh water. Here, on the edge of Lake Superior, sits a sprawling city cut out of the rugged northern Minnesota wilderness. A city bustling with activities and events, attractions and entertainment; a quiet city resting by the deep blue Lake Superior waters that surround it. Duluth welcomes ships from across the globe and visitors from around the world.

Walk the shores along the Lakewalk, the boardwalk winding through one city park after another to Canal Park, the center of summer activity, where oceangoing freighters slip silently by. Explore shop after shop and dozens of eateries housed in waterfront buildings. Relax on a romantic horse and carriage ride along the water’s edge, or take a motorcoach tour of Skyline Drive—offering 30 miles of breathtaking views along a rocky hillside 600 feet above the city. Experience a scenic train ride along the North Shore, and explore the area’s rich history and heritage. Uncover the hidden beauty of Duluth, then discover the attractions that make it an even more memorable stay.

Explore a relic ore boat, which supplied the steel mills that built this country’s history - part of the Great Lakes Floating Maritime Museum. This includes the newest addition, the U.S. Coast Guard cutter, Sundew. Tour elaborate, turn-of-the-century mansions. Take a cruise on the harbor, the bay, and under the world-famous Aerial Lift Bridge as it rises to greet you. Grab the edge of your seats in a 3-D adventure at the OMNIMAX® Theatre or view varied species up close at the Great Lakes Aquarium. You could even try charter fishing on the big lake! No matter what your interests, you’ll find events and attractions to keep you busy and help you relax.

Duluth. It’s a city of experiences, and it’s waiting to be explored! So plan your tour today.
