New tours, new bar crawl, new awesome routes.

Detroit Bus Co. Tours 

Bar Crawls, Architectural Explorations, Discovering Detroit's Neighborhoods & More  My, how the time flies. We're actually one year old this month! We launched the company January 2012 and sent out our first bus on May 2012. Since then, we've grown much, hired a handful of incredible people and built up some mind-blowingly cool potential projects for the future.  We've also expanded our tours and special events which we'd like to share with you below. 

Last Saturdays Bar Crawl: January

 Jan. 26th: 8pm-2:30am City Pass: Ten Bucks Ironman Pass: Fifteen Bucks Tickets here The last Saturday of every month, we’ll be running an all-night, all-you-can-ride loop around Downtown, Corktown & Midtown. Grab a few beers and jump on board, we’ll be hitting seven of the city’s best spots (that puts you within walking distance of about four dozen booze joints)

DBC Book Club ft. Belle Isle to 8 Mile: An Insider’s Guide to Detroit

Will take you through a whirlwind of some of Detroit’s hidden gems, with contributing author Matthew Lewis your guide. We’re keeping most of the cards close to our chest on the details of the tour, but we can let one big hint creep out:

WE’RE GOING TO THE WEST SIDE! We’ll give you an itinerary once you board the bus. Jump on for an adventure!

Divine Digs: Detroit’s Historical Churches

w/ Kari Smith, Certified Architectural HistorianFebruary 16th, 11am & 3pmTickets here

They were the institutions that Detroit built itself around, hand-built by the city’s founders. And unlike most relics of Detroit’s history, many of them stand around us to this day. We’ll visit several of Detroit’s most architecturally and significant historic churches. From Ste. Anne’s, which was originally built just days after French explorer’s first set foot on land here, to the elegant Fort Street Presbyterian, which was partially modeled after 15th century English Cathedrals. These churches do more than tell the history of Detroit- they represent it.

2013 will be the year of the regional transit. We're retooling here at the Detroit Bus Company, with new services, ambitious initiatives and a host of new programming.  You can catch the full story on where we've been and where we're going here
