Crossing into Canada requires a valid passport. An Enhanced Michigan Driver's license may also allow you entry into Canada, but check with local authorities to confirm.
Note that there is a toll to cross into Canada. Also, if the caravan goes to Pinery Provincial Park there is about a $10 per vehicle admission fee . These fees are not covered by the fee for this field trip.
