Give the gift of DBC

Give someone a night on a hand-painted bus.

Things eventually wear out, but experiences you get to take with you forever. Give the gift of adventure — a bar crawl, a haunted history tour, holiday lights from the good seats — on a bus painted by a Detroit artist.

How it works today

Three ways to get one, zero ways to mess it up

  1. Buy through our booking system. Use the button above, or hit BOOK on any tour page and look for the GIFT CARD button.
  2. The code lands in your email immediately. Send it straight to your person, or to yourself to keep it a surprise.
  3. Or just ask a human. Email help@thedetroitbus.com or call (313) 444-2871 and we'll sort you out.

Gift cards work on our tours and experiences, and they never expire. We're constantly adding new tours, so a card bought today gets more useful with age — like the buses.

Giving twice

Every gift card gives a Detroit kid a ride

Every ticket sold provides a ride for a Detroit kid to school or an after-school program through Ride For Ride. So when your gift card gets used, you're giving twice the good — one gift you can see, one you don't have to wrap.
