Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore
With towering dunes, endless beaches, wilderness islands and miles of trail to explore, Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore is definitely the main feature along the M-22 Scenic Drive.
2
Pierce Stocking Scenic Drive
A mini-drive within the main drive, the Pierce Stocking Scenic Drive was once nominated for the Most Beautiful Place in America series. This slow but extremely beautiful 7-mile loop drive is not to be missed, taking in viewpoints, dunes, a covered bridge, changing forests - including a ghost forest - and even the Sleeping Bear itself
3
Point Betsie Lighthouse
The Point Betsie Lighthouse marks the southern entrance of the Manitou Passage, one of the Great Lakes' most treacherous stretches of water. It’s one of the most photographed lighthouses in Michigan and guided tours are available of the 19th century keeper’s residence and 34-step tower.
4
Traverse City
Traverse City has long been known as the “Cherry Capital of the World”. In July and August, the countryside surrounding Traverse City is filled with fruit stands and markets brimming with baskets of sweet, dark cherries.

Unfortunately, while I was able to download the tour from Viator, I was not able to listen on the app for listening. Why? You are supposed to use the same log in for Viator as for the listening app. I used a one time password offered by Viator to log into Viator and therefore I could not match it to my Apple ID or Google is. So this purchase was useless.

Hi Jennifer, you need to follow the instructions sent via email. You cannot listen to the self-guided tour on Viator. After booking, you will receive a link via email. You need to sign in using that link, which will allow you to download the app. Use the same sign-in credentials for both. Once you follow this, you might see the tour you bought in your "My Tour" list. If you cannot participate, don't worry—your tour is valid forever. You can give it another try by following the instructions. I hope you will give it a try and enjoy it next time!

This really added a lot to our vacation. It worked very well. It notifies you what is coming up ahead of you, tells you some of the history of the area, points out good places to stop, take pictures, or take hikes. It was a good value for the money.
