Lush and bucolic, beautiful yet rugged, Minnesota's nickname as the North Star State is for good reason, its location next to the Canadian border. Lake Superior and Wisconsin lie to its east while North and South Dakota are to the west. Daily direct flights from London Heathrow to Minneapolis/St. Paul mean this adventure lover's paradise is closer for British visitors than ever before. Here's what to expect...
URBAN ADVENTURE
Vibrant Minneapolis along with its neighbour St. Paul, the state's capital, are known jointly as the twin cities. These gateways to the state are ranked among the most liveable and attractive urban areas in the US and famous for their varied culinary, culture and craft beer scenes. You'll also find Sealife Adventure here featuring shark and rescued sea turtle exhibits. Just under 32km away is Paisley Park, the former residence and studio of musician Prince.
