Interesting and informative tour! While I had been to Detroit previously, I hadn’t really noticed some of the buildings before so Kacie was great in describing the history and nuances. Also she recommended some good places to eat while in town. She offered to take photos of me in front of some of the landmarks since I was solo which is everything when you’re on your own. Wear comfy shoes since you will cover a lot of ground.

Kacie is a nice girl. She is not very experienced at dealing with the public, Im guessing. She speaks too quietly and not very clearly. Despite some awful weather which made our tour a bit miserable there really wasn't much energy from her to give it any enjoyment. Very expensive waste of time. I was really disappointed - its the only reason Im writing the review.
Not worth the price

Very disappointed. The tour guide was very sweet however very soft spoken. Couldn’t hear most of what she was saying. The tour claims 19 stops with admission, most of the stops are outdoor sculptures and the buildings that we went into were free (Huntington Place, GMC, Guardian, and Book Tower). Also the ad claims 10,000 steps we only recorded 6,000. Total tour was around 2 hours. I don’t normally write reviews but I think this was not worth the price and would hate for another tourist to experience.

Loved the history of Detroit. Also saw Ford Field and enjoyed Corktown. Train Station renovation is amazing.
