Fascinating Tour of Detroit
Lisa M,,Nov 24, 2025

5.00This is a wonderful tour of Detroit. It highlights a lot of architecture but also covers plenty of history...and the history of Detroit is fascinating! The tour guide speaks six languages and is clearly invested in sharing the best of her city. She also confirmed with me twice in advance and let me know how to find her, which I appreciated as a solo traveler.
Whether a Local or Visiting - Do This!

5.00You must take this walking tour. Even if you are a local, you will never see the architecture, or get the backstory, the way you will on this tour. Ask for Mike as your guide. He personally lived Detroit's fall from grace and against all odds rise to it's current glory. More to come from this city clearly on the UP! Lots of impressive architecture, history, and cool street art.
Wonderful time with...

5.00Wonderful time with Michael, our knowledgeable and friendly guide. Small hiccup in scheduling, but otherwise perfect. Glad to have found this tour when all other Detroit tour groups had cut back for the season.

5.00We met up with Dildora on 23 September and she took my husband and me on the walking tour. We had such a good time and learned so much! I have never been to Detroit before and had no idea of the rebirth of the downtown. She explained that really it was about great business leaders AND great vision and leadership. As she pointed out various buildings which had been abandoned but reborn and repurposed, we were just so impressed by what has been done and what is still planned to be done. I love the fact that she has cultivated relationships with numerous businesses and they allow her to bring in her tours to show them original architecture, ceilings, windows, artwork and hardware right alongside renovation work. On another note, I mentioned to her that I didn’t see many homeless people outside, and she told us that the city is also repurposing some buildings for safe shelter for homeless people or families and that is also impressive. Dildora has quite a wealth of knowledge about Detroit and I believe the city has a very bright future that pays homage to older architecture.

5.00The tour with Dildora was wonderful. She introduced me to the history (not just of architecture) of her city of Detroit with an awful lot of knowledge and passion. No question went unanswered (even those after a restaurant recommendation) and I was warmly and openly introduced to Detroit's small and big secrets by Dildora. And all in good German. Thank you again.
Good Detroit tour.
