Explore West Michigan From the Comfort of Your Home
Get to know Grand Rapids and all it has to offer from your home! Our Virtual Tours consist of a live presentation from an entertaining and passionate tour guide on a topic of your choice. Simply tell us what interests you, mix and match topics from our public tour itineraries, or request a recommendation. The tour usually lasts between 1-1.5 hours, including a question-and-answer session.
This is a great way to mix with colleagues working from home, to inspire your kids who are fed up with schoolwork, or simply a great activity for learning more about Grand Rapids and its rich history. This is also a great way to learn more before planning your next trip here.
Examples of Previous Virtual Tour Topics
- Grand Rapids Churches: History, architecture and the immigrants who built them.
- History of Michigan Serial Killers from 1800s to today. There are way more than you think.
- Grand Rapids tours in art, architecture, historic homes, furniture city, and urban renewal
- My mother and I went on a private tour through the historical neighborhood in Grand Rapids Candace. We had an amazing time, our host was extremely knowledgeable and answered any questions we had. She made it an extra fun time with added tour bonuses, we did not expect. We will absolutely use her service again!

Melissa Baker4/20/2025 - We had an excellent time on our ghost tour with Candice! She was so knowledgable, friendly, and entertaining. We learned a lot about the history of Grand Rapids and some of its beautiful historic buildings, and enjoyed walking around with someone who has a clear love for the city and its inhabitants, both living and deceased. We even had some incredible ghostly encounters of our own on the tour! We would definitely recommend this tour.

Queen B13/24/2025 - We just did a tour with Candice, and it was so fun! She is so passionate about GR and the ghosts, her energy is palpable. We loved hearing about the different historical buildings, the ghost stories, and even had our own experiences (lights definitely turned off EXACTLY when Candice was discussing the ghost doing that and we heard a scream!). Worth the cold!!
