Do we have to use the vouchers all on the same day?
Do we have to use the vouchers exactly like the sample itinerary?

We ask for the date of your arrival on Mackinac Island, however, all vouchers do not have to be used on the same date. The sample itinerary is just a suggestion, you may use the vouchers in any order that you wish.

Is there a charge for children age 4 and under and do they need tickets for the Mackinac Experience Package?

No, there is no charge for children age 4 and under as long as they are accompanied by an adult, and that they ride on an adult's lap during the Carriage Tour. Tickets are not available for children age 4 and under and they are admitted free with an adult at all of the businesses included in the Mackinac Island Experience Package.

If I purchase a package for a given date and that date is rainy can I use the package on a later date?

Yes. We just need the earliest date that you are arriving in the Straits Area so that we can ensure timely delivery of your vouchers either by US Mail or hand delivery from Mackinac Island to the Will Call locations in St. Ignace or Mackinaw City. You may use the vouchers from that date until the end of our current season.
