A beautiful view to the other side of 🇨🇦... simple trip but worth it. Take a warm jacket because once you go in the middle of the river to the side of Canada, the temperature drop significantly!

No advanced seating, pay at the dock. Cash/card. Good narration, wonderful to see our city from this viewpoint! Then rent a scooter and have fun on the Riverwalk. Just don't crash!

What an awesome experience! I grew up in Detroit, moved away due to my job, and still visit as often as I can. Incredibly, I've had never experienced the Diamond Jack's boat tour. I grabbed Mom, my brother, and my cousin and said "Hey, we're taking the tour!" What a fantastic decision. We all learned so much during the hour-long narrated ride up and down the river. The captain and crew were amazing. Such a family friendly experience. We look forward to making the tour an annual event.

Our Friday tour started a little after 5:30 pm. We were expecting to step onto a ship similar in size to the well-known Princess Cruise ship. Imagine our surprise when we boarded a small dirty river boat with hard green plastic chairs 😄. Due to the number of people, the good-view "window seats" were gone by the time we stepped onto the boat. A couple of us headed down below deck to sit at a row of card tables. The tour was pleasant and informative. We had to strain to hear the guide due to the noise level. Before the cruise started, a warning was broadcast for people to keep an eye on their children. Of course, that warning was ignored. People allowed their precious young children to dangle heads and arms out of the boat windows. Additionally, the tour does have a snack bar area for people wanting to purchase treats. You are not allowed to bring your own food and drink aboard. Overall, the tour lasted a little over an hour. My group enjoyed the tour as we chatted with diverse people from all areas. I highly recommend arriving early to obtain a good seat. Side note: The prices are still the same. However, the cruise times are shorter. The tour did not go near Belle Isle.

The river tour was great. It took a little more than an hour and basically goes North until right before Belle Isle, turns around and sails South until right after the Ambassador bridge and returns. The information provided were very detailed - unfortunately not made to remember everything (hence only 4 starts). We did other river tours on which the audio guide was more entertaining.
