GARY, Ind. — A tour bus company is planning a trip that will take Michael Jackson fans to his boyhood home in Gary and other Jackson family related sites in the city.

Chicago-based JWR Tours is advertising what it calls “an amazing journey” with insider guides for the trips leaving from Chicago, costing $55 for adults and $45 for children.

The company’s Web site says other sites on the tour will include Roosevelt High School, which some of Jackson’s siblings attended; the corner store where the Jackson family bought groceries; the steel mill where his father worked, and the former nightclub where Jackson made his professional debut in 1966.

Jackson lived in Gary until age 11 and last visited the city in 2003.
