About Upper Peninsula Tours
Upper Peninsula Tours, led by lifelong Yooper "Yooper Steve," is a guided-tour outfitter based in Marquette that specializes in showing visitors the natural wonders of Michigan's UP. From waterfalls and hiking trails to Lake Superior paddles, Steve builds custom adventures across the region for travelers who want a knowledgeable local behind the wheel.
The signature offering is the Lots-a-Waterfalls Tour, which chases as many cascades as possible across the Marquette, Big Bay, Munising, Keweenaw, L'Anse, and Ironwood areas in a single outing. Beyond waterfall tours, the company runs guided hikes, kayak tours, and kayak rentals, with itineraries spanning the Huron Mountains, the Porcupine Mountains, and the Pictured Rocks region — including full-day and multi-area adventures.
Upper Peninsula Tours stands out for its all-in-one, story-rich guiding style — Steve's decades of local knowledge turn a simple sightseeing trip into a genuine backcountry experience. For visitors who want to cover a lot of scenic ground without the logistics of navigating remote UP roads and trails themselves, it's an ideal way to explore.
