Very excited to have finally visit this historic place and important part of music history. I cannot wait for the extension. My only comment is that we not allowed to take any photos inside and the tour even the host is lovely, I hate guided tours. But I knew this would happen. Hope that in the f...

What a fantastic museum! Although definitely understated from the outside, it opens up the moment that you step through the door! Chock-full of priceless pictures and artifacts, it is a true honor to get to be so near! Our tour guide was wonderfully knowledgeable, what a lovely site.

I highly recommend this place to anyone who lives in or is visiting D...

In a bad neighborhood but worth it to get a few pictures of the house. Unfortunately only got to see the gift shop since at 2pm a sign was posted saying no more tours for the day. Guess it s really popular. If you want to go best to buy your tickets in advance online and don t expect to go and ju...

The tour was sold out so we didn't get a chance to view the inside. I wanted to go in so bad. If you're in Detroit and you would like to go to Motown you have to book your tickets really early if not you will not be able to view the museum.

To be in the Studio were all the Motown songs were recorded that I grew up listening too was Truly an Honor. Music has been one of two constants in my LIFE. SPIRITUALITY and MUSIC have been my Constant Companion. Thank you Berry Gordy and the MOTOWN FAMILY. LOVE YOU ALL.

Wonderful history on this tour. Carolyn was a phenomenal tour guide and very knowledgeable. I especially enjoyed the studio at the end of the tour. Staff was courteous from arrival to exit. Very good with Covid safety procedures. We had a great time.

My experience here was made by our exceptionally warm, funny and knowledgeable guide. I wish I could remember his name (it was Saturday Feb 2 and he has been working there for 6 years). Learn all about the creation of the Motown legend and stand in the studio where your favorite music was recorded. ...

I am so thankful that my mom and I went to tour Motown Museum. It felt great being surrounded by musical history. I felt the presence of all the musicians who visit and recorded at Studio A at Motown. Make sure you go and visit if you are in the Detroit area.

This place was amazing! Grew up listening to Motown and had this on the bucket list. I was so glad I did it. Worth every dime. This recording label delivered more than music. It delivered a message and the tour guide put it in perspective. Thank you Jordan. When we met i thought id be schooling you...

The Motown Museum is a must see in Detroit for both residents and visitors. Berry Gordy accomplished so much in so little time with a small amount of money, a lot of work and incredible vision. But, don't let me tell you the story, hear the incredible history for yourself. The staff of the Motown M...

It's small and guided tour only, on 1/2 hr schedules, but it is awesome. Web site says no cell phones but almost everyone kept theirs they just don't allow pictures although our guide did let people take pics of just one area.
