I booked the tour of Belle Isle as a surprise for my boyfriend's 60th birthday, and Lisa and her crew went above and beyond to make it an awesome experience for us. She even hung a sign and streamers on the back of the car to make it extra-special. Our tour guide, John, was amazing, and we learned so many interesting facts about the city and the island that we didn't know. We highly recommend this tour!
