Excellent tour of Downtown Detroit - Dildora was a terrific guide to Detroit and its many unique and interesting buildings. The Guardian Building was our favorite. She had innumerable stories of the city's people and history, and went above and beyond by recommending various restaurants to try in future. It was a great tour!

Detroit architecture: from initial build; through city bankruptcy; to astounding, inspiring rebirth and restoration! - Super-informative walking tour that covered not only architecture but also underlying social and economic history.

Detroit Architecture at Its' Best - Dildora was the our guide on this tour. Her extensive knowledge and love of Detroit and its' historic, beautiful architecture were obvious. It's a fun, fast paced tour with plenty of rest spots. I never knew Detroit had so much to offer visitors until I took this tour. She also gave us useful tips on other historic sites and restaurants. I highly recommend this well priced tour for fans of architecture and history.

Exceptional guide and tour! - Seeing several of Detroit's art deco masterpiece buildings was a treat - certainly. But the real value of this extraordinary tour was the guide's masterful explanation of Detroit's history - especially its impressive renaissance in recent decades. Highly recommended!

Interesting history of Detroit. - The tour with Dildoro was terrific, but I was charged $140 and the advertised rate is $115. I do not understand why this discrepancy.

Preparation if KEY - Great History but it was a frigid day and we were not dressed for the amount of time spent in the cold.
