Bizarre Detroit Bus Tour
Think you know everything Detroit has to offer? Or are you looking to venture off the beaten path? Jump on our Bizarre Detroit bus tour and learn the secret places, back allies, crazy sports, and true oddities that are only found here. We will explore a members only club and grab a historic cocktail at one of Detroit's true gems. You'll learn about feuding brothers, werewolves, dive bars, cities inside of cities, and what's buried deep beneath Motown. There will be a little of everything and a lot of fun as we traverse some of the 142.87 square miles that make up Detroit. Grab a friend and your sense of adventure and hop on the bus as we prepare to explore Bizarre Detroit.
Because drinking and swearing come with the history, all public bus tours are strictly 21 years old and older. (To date the oldest person to come on one of our tours was 97 years of aged awesomeness. We've also hosted a 21st birthday party, and everyone in between!)
The tour leaves promptly at the ticketed time. Late arrivals can not be accommodated.
This tour departs from and returns to The Detroit History Club, (3103 Commor St., Hamtramck, MI 48212.) Parking is on street. Doors to the club open 30 minutes before ticketed tour start time. Guests are invited to come inside, check into the tour, and relax until the departure time.
Your order confirmation email will serve as your only ticket. Please save your email and be prepared to show it on your phone or printed to board the bus. (We do this to avoid the ticketing fees that come along with ticketing systems. The price of your ticket will remain the same throughout checkout with no added fees for tax.)
If you have a large group consider booking any of our fabulous tours as a private charter. We can arrange to pick your group up from any location, on any day and any time. Check out our Private Tours link for more information.
