Itinerary
Day 1 – Dearborn, MI – Greenfield Village
Travel today takes you to Dearborn, MI where you first visit Greenfield Village this afternoon. Experience firsthand the sights, sounds and sensations of America’s fascinating formation, where over 80 acres brim with resourcefulness and ingenuity. Here, 300 years of American perseverance serve as a living reminder that anything is possible.
Step foot in the lab where Thomas Edison had his lightbulb moment or the workshop where the Wright brothers taught us to reach for the sky. Take a ride in a real Model T, or a walk through four working farms. Rub shoulders with world-class artisans, and explore the place where America’s can-do spirit inspires you to go out and get it done. Journey into America’s past to discover inspiration for bringing innovation and imagination into your life today.
Visit the shops from Liberty Craftworks to Main Street Emporium and the Greenfield Village Store, these carefully curated stores will spark your passion for history and inspire your next great idea.
Then check into your local hotel for an overnight stay. Dinner is included this evening at a local restaurant. (D)
Day 2 – Henry Ford Museum – Depart for Home
After breakfast at the hotel, tour the Henry Ford Museum of American Innovation. Step into a world where past innovations fuel the imagination of generations to come. A vibrant exploration of genius in all its forms, Henry Ford Museum of American Innovation allows you to experience the strides of America’s greatest minds while fully immersing yourself in their stories. Step inside the bus where Rosa Parks took a stand by taking a seat. Play pilot as you explore flight innovations, starting with the Wright brothers’ achievements, or make yourself at home inside Buckminster Fuller’s circular Dymaxion House. Put yourself in the place of the movers and shakers who blazed the trail to where we stand today. And in doing so, discover your own path.
From race cars to freedom rides, modular houses to microprocessors, the wide-ranging exhibits of the Henry Ford Museum of American Innovation bring you face to face with real things that have the power to inspire, inform and engage you in ways no image or description can do on its own.
