100 thumbs up! What a cool tour of the Detroit theaters with Ken, our guide. We met in front of the the Detroit Music Hall Center and started our journey to see the magnificent theaters of Detroit. We toured the Fox, the Detroit Opera, the Fillmore and ended back at the Music Hall. Each theater was unique and beautiful and Ken was very knowledgeable and open to all questions. He really knew his stuff. Paid parking was located very near where the tour started and all the theaters were located in close proximity and that made for a very nice walking tour.

Read moreI had a wonderful architectural tour today (a Wednesday) with guide Rick. Not only is Rick extremely knowledgeable about Detroit but has lived here his whole life and seems to really enjoy sharing his own experiences.
