Thank you Nancy from CIty Tours Detroit! 3 adults & 4 tweens spent a wonderful morning learning about Detroit. A native, who repatriated after 8 years away, I wanted some how to show my guests this amazing city, and Nancy was spot on! She even encouraged my little add ons from my 1980-90’s own Detroit history. Nancy did not rush us and asked if we could extend a few minutes, no problem here...Nancy’s passion for the city shines on her tours.

Nancy did an incredible job of our Detroit D tour. She has high energy and enthusiasm and communicated information in a very interesting way and was able to answer all the questions. The trip itinerary was excellent with a nice balance of architecture, history, current structures being built, restaurants and wonderful things going on in the city. I live in a suburb and learned a lot that I will use to visit Detroit going forward. My friend was not from the area but she equally enjoyed it. Bonus was that when asked Nancy provided us with a list of the places we had seen so I can use that as a guide . Excellent all around.

This is more of an experience than a tour. Four major conductors in the UGRR, dress in character and walk you through the city's major locations, where, in the 1840s and 50s, was a hotbed of abolitionist sentiment and where thousands of fugitive slaves were spirited in secret to various "stops," then onto awaiting boats to take them to freedom—less than a mile away in Windsor, Ontario. I'm a native Detroiter and this was my second time on the tour; it was that good!

My husband & I loved learning & experiencing Detroit on the "See the D" walking tour. Our guide was so informative & FUN! We really enjoyed seeing & hearing about the city from a native Detroiter. We had a blast & would happily recommend this tour for anyone wanting to really see the D.

Loved learning more information on the buildings and areas in Downtown Detroit. We live in the suburbs, and took the day to be tourists in Detroit. Highly recommend. Especially loved going inside the Guardian and he David Whitney buildings. I would recommend to remove the Greektown part of this tour. Sadly, this area is not what it used to be.
