Description

Hop on the bus and get the inside scoop on America’s best kept secret!

Ready to explore the Motor City?

Even if you live here, we have something new for everyone. This exclusive ride through the city will take you to some of Detroit’s most iconic buildings, experience our storied riverfront, walk through an outdoor art installation (or two), and maybe even get in a little bit of shopping.

As a city that got its start in the early 1700’s before our country’s founding, we know a thing or two about making big things happen. As we start with a taste of downtown, Campus Martius and The Guardian Building are your first stops where you’ll see how industry shaped Detroit, and how the Motor City in turn shaped the trajectory of American innovation.

Explore the Paris of the Midwest with us!

Beyond the sites, we have stories for days about the way Detroit has helped shape not just Michigan, but the world. Did you know Detroit played an integral role on the Underground Railroad? Sure you’ve probably heard about Motown, but did you know Techno originated here?

Uncover the past, immerse yourself in the prolific present, and witness the transformation of Detroit on our Welcome to Detroit Bus Tour.

FAQ’s

What happens if I miss the bus? Will the bus wait for me if I’m late?

We can’t hold the bus for you if you’re late. Sorry to be so mean about that. There’s a schedule to keep and we want everyone to have a good time.

Is this tour family-friendly?

Yes, this tour is designed to include everyone. The whole family can come! However, please know this tour does feature several stops where we will disembark from the bus and do some walking around. Please plan accordingly.

Can I drink on the bus?

No. There is no drinking on this particular tour other than water, juice, or pop. However, we do offer several tours where you can drink both on and off the bus, such as our popular Drunks of Antiquity Tour, our Wine Not? Tour, and Brewery Hop! 

What if I can’t show up? Will my friend be able to go instead?

Totally. Just let us know ahead of time via [email protected] and we’ll update your tickets with the new name or send them with your printed tickets.

Will you be selling extra seats at the bus?

Nope. Sorry. All passes gotta be bought online. There’s a limited number of seats and we want you to have plenty of room – no roof riders no matter how badass that might sound.

What about weather SNAFUs?

We live in Michigan. Sometimes Mother Nature likes to throw us a curveball. We keep safety as our highest priority. In case of gnarly weather, you’ll receive an email the day of the event with a raincheck/snowcheck date. If you cannot make the rescheduled date, you’ll get a voucher good for a future tour with us.

With every seat you purchase on one of our experiences, we will give a Detroit kid in need of a safe ride to school or after-school program. Ride for ride.
