When temperatures rise, there are so many fantastic ways to appreciate our beautiful region - from hiking trails to festivals to delicious eateries with outdoor dining options.

Today, we’ll fill you in on an awesome bourbon boat tour in Michigan that promises to fill your summer with fun. This season, this fantastic summer day trip in Michigan could be calling your name! Michigan in summer is a magical time, and there's no better way to celebrate than with a trip on Sip n' Sail Cruises in Mackinac Island.

Sip n' Sail Cruises operate off of Mackinac Island, Michigan’s beloved car-free wonderland.

We’ve featured Sip n' Sail before, but there’s something extra special in store for those who choose to set sail in the summer: a fun-filled boat tour known as Bourbon Under the Bridge.

This tour is just what it sounds like: an incredible jaunt under the Mackinac Bridge complete with samples of delicious assorted bourbons.

Of course, this outing is designed for grownup passengers, so round up a few adult friends before you make your booking. When you’re seeking a truly unforgettable way to celebrate summer in Michigan, this surely fits the bill.

When the time comes for your tour, you’ll step aboard the delightful Isle Royale Queen III and sail from Mackinac Island into the marvelous Straits of Mackinac. Be sure to bring along your camera.

As you sail, take in the sights and sounds of the Straits and the Mackinac Bridge itself.

You’ll share the boat with local musician Pete Kehoe, who will provide a wonderful soundtrack for your bourbon-sipping.

If that weren’t enough, passengers will appreciate light snacks and a full cash bar for extra beverages. Whether you’re here for date night or an outing with pals, you’ll quickly fall in love with the atmosphere.

Whether you’re a first-time Sip n' Sail cruiser or a repeat customer, there’s no denying the wonder of appreciating Michigan’s many charms by boat. This is one of the best summer day trips in Michigan around, and the scenery is unbeatable.

The Bourbon Under the Bridge tour is definitely a Michigan day trip that won’t disappoint.

Grab some friends, or enjoy this bourbon tour solo - either way, you'll leave with some fantastic memories!
