    1. 30-Mile North Shore helicopter tour in Duluth

    4.8· 31 reviews

    Thirty-minute aerial tour—sights include the Port Terminal, Aerial Lift Bridge, Glensheen Mansion, and Lester River along the North Shore.

    The experience was fantastic! The scenery over Duluth was stunning. Park Point helicopter service was professional and welcoming, making us feel safe and well cared for. We would definitely recommend them and would love to repeat it!Kurt_W
  2. 60-mile helicopter tour over Duluth and Lake Superior, Duluth2

    2. 60-mile helicopter tour over Duluth and Lake Superior

    4.8· 5 reviews

    Approximate one-hour flight covering Jay Cooke State Park, St. Louis River, and the North Shore's scenic vistas around Duluth.

    We flew with Lake Superior Helicopter for the second year, and our 13-year-old grandson always takes the co-pilot seat for an incredible experience. The views from the back seats are fantastic as well. Each flight has had an entertaining and informative pilot. We're definitely booking again next summer.Rosheim

    A leisurely audio-guided stroll through Canal Park, exploring Duluth's rich history and significant landmarks at your own pace.

    The tour was engaging and educational, making it easy to navigate. The tour app worked well, and the recorded narration added to the enjoyment. My husband and I appreciated the opportunity to explore Duluth in this manner.649dv
  1. Self-guided audio driving tour of Lake Superior's North Shore, Duluth4

    4. Self-guided audio driving tour of Lake Superior's North Shore

    4.1· 23 reviews

    Historical landmarks and natural beauty along Lake Superior — a self-guided audio tour covering shipwreck tales, Glensheen Mansion, Gooseberry Falls, and Split Rock Lighthouse.

    Having lived in Duluth for two decades, we still found this tour to be incredibly enjoyable. We discovered a wealth of information about the North Shore that was new to us. While I initially thought it was slightly pricey, the experience proved to be worth every penny. I highly recommend it.mikemA74ZW
  2. Murder mystery detective experience in Duluth, Duluth5

    5. Murder mystery detective experience in Duluth

    3.5· 4 reviews· 2.5 hours

    Two to three hours of crime-solving across 10 locations — audio adventure alongside walking or driving options, gather clues and issue a final arrest warrant.

    Overall, we felt somewhat disappointed. At times, it was difficult to hear the guide due to the traffic noise at various stops, and a few locations felt a bit unsafe. However, the narrative was engaging.joansA6773JE
