Luckily, the weather was perfect for walking around Detroit, but the tour itself was pretty lame. Once the tour guide started making an argument that Prince haunts the Majestic Theater it became laughable.

The young man escorting us through downtown was fantastic. Not only did we have a tour filled with historic spooky stories, he also enlightened us on a bit of rock and roll history. Me and my spouse had a wonderful time. Will definitely do again!

Lots of walking between sights, sort of a good guide, nothing spooky about it, not a loop so had to walk from ending point all the way back to the parked car which was parked at the beginning (another mile walk back). Weather was great so that was a bonus. Most of the buildings would have been more entertaining in the day light.

For a city with as much history as Detroit, we expected a lot more from this tour. Our tour started late because the guide didn't get there on time and then everything felt rushed from that point forward. The tour ended up being a lot more site seeing of the city, than hearing stories of the past which we were looking forward to. We ended over a mile from where the tour started and were left to find our way back to the start on our own because the guide was doing an extended tour with a few others on the tour who had paid extra for that.
