Kalamazoo accommodation from NZ$99

Plus, Kalamazoo is just an hour’s drive from the banks of Lake Michigan and a couple hours from Chicago, Illinois. Sounds like a road trip may be in order, which is only fitting, since you’re going on holiday to the home state of America’s first automobiles. Psst…wanna book great Chicago hotels while you’re planning?

Things to Do in Kalamazoo

If you can’t get over the fact that there’s a castle in Michigan, you’re not alone. We’re pretty stoked about Henderson Castle too. This brick beauty is located just north of Kalamazoo College and Western Michigan University, because nothing fosters learning like savouring a seven-course dinner near a vineyard and perusing vintage swords.

Explore decidedly different terrain at the Air Zoo, a hands-on space and technology centre for kids of all ages, and we mean all ages. Swap wings for four wheels at the Gilmore Car Museum, just 25 km away in Hickory Corner. When you’re ready to take the road less travelled, walk through the peaceful Milham Park. Then kick back in one of the many charming Kalamazoo hotels before filling up on local treats at the Kalamazoo Farmers Market the next morning. Rest up!

Getting To & Around Kalamazoo

Touch down at Kalamazoo/Battle Creek International Airport (AZO), just 8 km south of downtown Kalamazoo. Rent some holiday wheels to get around and speed this escape along by booking one of our Kalamazoo packages. You save big when you mix and match flights and hotels in Kalamazoo with Wotif.
