This was all about beers. Steven was an awesome guy - we absolutely loved the Rockford brewery! So much useful information and so many interesting things to do.

This was our second experience with Steve and his crew. The first was a charity bicycle tour in Rochester Hills. They did a great job then and this trip was easily as well done. A quick bus ride from downtown Royal Oak to Westland and we were immersed in the Belgium Beer festival. Those of us on the bus were given VIP access, which meant we didn't have to stand in line to get into the event. Our wrist bands, tasting glasses, beer tokens (5) and souvenir pins were dispensed on the bus so we could get right to tasting once inside. The event pamphlet/program indicated there was going to be about 150 different beers spread across 18 tables. So many beers, so little time. Those of us on the bus had an inside track as one of the attendees on the bus had been to Belgium on a 2-year job assignment so he schooled us on some of the more rare beers to taste first. This was good information to have as these beers are not available anywhere else in North America. Truly a once-a-year experience at the festival. Steve does a great job and goes out of his way to make the experience one to remember.

Great time. Very informative. Steve shared a wealth of information on Detroit's automotive history and his love of beer.

I was a first timer on this tour after friends asked me to go. It was fantastic ! We stopped at 3 terrific breweries ( Hideout, Perrin, and Rockford) and tried all the different beers. Had a great time not only in the breweries and trying the fine beers, but the bus ride there and back once a blast. Steve, the tour director, and assistants were fun and all the other guests were fun and interactive. I suggest and urge you to try at least 1 tour with this company. You won't regret it !!

We went on the bus tour of three breweries in Kalamazoo and had an awesome time! We visited Tibbs, Ruperts and Arcadia (and had a quick unscheduled stop at Bells). What better a way to check out some new places and sample some new beers than being chauffeured around on a bus with a bunch of other beer fans. We met a lot of great people, drank some great beer and got to see behind the scenes at the breweries. At each stop we got either a pint of our choice or three samples. Pizza was provided at the first stop and you could purchase additional beer or food at any of the stops. Steve was awesome, making sure to talk to everyone and providing tons of interesting information! We are already planning our next tour!

Another great trip from Motor City Brew Tours !! We had a great time visiting three breweries, and even got to stop at the Bells Eccentric Store as a last minute decision. It turned out to be a long day, but hey.... we went to Kalamazoo and didn't have to drive because all of this is on a spacious, luxury travel bus.... definitely going again !

I thoroughly enjoyed the biking and the tour. Steve was a plethora of information about Detroit's storied brewing history and had clearly done extensive research. Motor City Brew Tours lays out exactly what to expect on the tour and I felt like I got great value for $32.Thanks Steve!

I took my husband on this tour as part of his birthday present. We really had a good time. Great tour guides. Easy ride with lots of stops. The last stop being the best with beer and food. Would certainly do this again next time we are in town.

My best friend and I recently went on the Warren bus tour. We visited 3 breweries and had a blast! We were provided samples at each stop (and pizza at the first one), there were snacks and water on the bus, and the tour itself was very interesting. The only issue I had, and it's a small one, is the bus trip itself. The bus smelled horrible and the driver must have just gotten her license. She got the bus stuck going through a turnaround and ran at least one stop sign and red light. All in all, we had a blast and I'm looking forward to booking a Kalamazoo day trip!

The bus was as scheduled, very neat and clean and surprisingly comfortable. The Driver and the hosts were great and courteous. We were offered plenty of snacks, bottled water and cans of beer were avail for free! For sure, I would recommend them to friends and family

A wonderful way to learn about the Detroit area and get some exercise. Very well organized and the Johnsons were wonderful guides. I never felt unsafe:)

My husband and I went on our first Bike Brew Tour in July 12th. We met in the parking lot of the Traffic Jam. Our tour went through parts of Detroit where breweries are or once existed. Our trip culminated with lunch and beer at the Traffic Jam and Snug. We learned lots of great facts from our tour guide John who was excellent. We are looking forward to our next tour. We would definitely recommend it.

Bus was on time, clean and comfy. We had a great host and driver. Plenty of snacks, bottled water and cans of Griffn Claw beer were avail for free! I'd use them again in a heartbeat.

We loved the bus trip to the summer beer festival. We were picked up at the Liberty Brewery (the only confusion was on the pickup time, which gave 3 different times on the website so we were an hour early just to make sure we did not miss the pickup). Our host was friendly and we had a Griffin Claw brew on the way to the festival and pretzels/peanuts and water on the return. It definitely is the best way to get to and from the festival in a safe and fun manner!
