| Details: | Discover Detroit from a whole new perspective on this fascinating guided ride aboard the Detroit People Mover. While the 2.9-mile loop may be short, the stories it holds are anything but
Learn about hidden artwork worth millions to surprising historic connections and quirky downtown landmarks. Along the way, youll hear about how one determined woman transformed the stations into a city-wide art gallery, uncover the origins of Detroits own Times Square, and learn the unexpected tales that make this elevated train a true Motor City icon.
Your tour is led by urban planner and Detroit enthusiast Michael Boettcher, who has been leading tours since the early 1990s. With decades of experience working in Southeast Michigan communities, he brings both knowledge and humor to the story of the city. When hes not sharing Detroits stories, he collects antique Detroit postcards and is slowly building a scale model of downtown Detroit entirely out of Legos.
A full-service lunch is included at Slows Bar BQ.
Light walking, standing, and some stairs required
Round-Trip motorcoach transportation is also included.
