Customer Reviews

We loved the tour of the Guardian. Our guide Lorrie did an amazing job. She was so knowledgeable with excellent delivery.

My niece and I loved the walking tour! Melissa was fantastic and full of energy, personality, and interesting info. It was a well organized and thoughtful tour and I loved that we hopped on the people mover and got to see so much more than a standard walking tour! I've taken a lot of tours in a lot of different cities and Melissa is one of the very best tour guides. She's passionate and loves her city! The tour is a nice overview with glimpses of things to check out in detail later. Take this tour at the beginning of your trip so you have time to explore afterwards. In the afternoon we also did the Guardian Building tour and some local friends joined us. Lorrie was super knowledgeable and also fantastic. My local friends were so impressed by a building they previously knew very little about. This is really a tour that everyone will enjoy, whether you're in Detroit for a day or a life-long resident. The details about the Guardian are impressive!

The tour was really nice! Melissa, our tour guide, is well informed and though I'm a native-Detroiter and have been to the Guardian Building before, I'd never been on a tour. It highlighted the priceless architecture we have right here in our city.
