Great Historical tour of Downtown Detroit. - I only had one afternoon to explore downtown Detroit. Kacie was so knowledgeable and showed me so many things that I wouldn't have had on my own. She was great tour guide and well worth it. I recommended her to a friend who s taking the tour tomorrow.

Great guide and tour! - Quick taste, and informative. However, a whole lot of downtown and a whole lot of history. I had no idea that Detroit had some art installations in public places.

Great tour - lots of interesting highlights - Kacie did a wonderful tour highlighting the interesting stories surrounding downtown Detroit. We toured a wide range of important statues, buildings, sculptures and plazas. My favorite was the Guardian Building. The tour was excellent. Well worth it. Thank you to Kacie for a great tour!

Terrific experience - This is one of the best walking tours we’ve taken. Kacie is amazing and really packed an entertaining and educational history of the downtown area into two hours. Detroit is spread out, and she was extremely helpful and knowledgeable with tips on the other things in Detroit that we planned to see on other tours (Michigan Central Station, Belle Isle, Fisher Building) including amazing restaurants for our tastes. Her attentiveness and enthusiasm are off the charts!

Wonderful city and architectural history! - My family was born and raised not far from downtown, but left in the early 1980's. We were thrilled with the details this tour provided. I was especially surprised by how much information we got just from walking through the convention center. But the best part of the tour is going into the lobbies of the downtown buildings. We've been to cities all over the world and Detroit ranks right up there with its "Wow Factor." Our guide was well-informed and able to answer any questions we had.
