With some friends from out of town visiting, they wanted to try and do something a bit more unique and this fit the bill. There were 9 of us total, I think we could fit up to 13-14? We were told to arrive at 6 for a 630 start but our tour guide did not show up until a little after 630 and seemed a bit disgruntled that we were all waiting on a super hot day. We were even told that they switched guides last minute to handle our reservation even though we were there with ample amounts of time. I'm not really sure why that was relevant to share with us but it was uncomfortable and made us feel like no one wanted to take our group. We also didn't get to choose our stops (I guess they said we didn't choose on time?? Though it's not like they had reservations for us, so I'm not sure why that mattered if we could have chosen the day before) but still had a great time! I think they should provide a bit more guidance with picking seats and how to work through but I really do think that we just had someone who was rushing through and it felt a bit awkward. I can't say that I'd opt to do this again in the future but glad I had the experience.

With that said, Brian is a good host and worked well with the breweries to give us a variety of options at each, including info on the local brewing process and craft brewing from the experts. City Built Brewing, Crestor (owned by Saugatuck) and Kusterer Brauhaus were our 3 stops and each were a good mixture of tastes and styles.

He was knowledgeable and gave a nice history of the brewers, buildings, and the area. He knows GR and made it a great experience for those from GR and traveling from around the country. Highly recommend if you are looking to do a beer tour in GR.

Matt, the owner was great to work with and clearly laid out the expectations. Day of, the first shuttle, driven by Steve, for our pictures was there early and was very great to work with. He clearly laid out the ground rules and they were easy to follow. I basically handed him off to the photographer in terms of where to be and what to do. There was a gap in time where we were gone walking around downtown GR and our driver got worried about us and called my cell, which I had left in the bus....Suggestion for anyone day of is to bring your phone off the shuttle. I appreciated his concern and willingness to help. At our next stop he reminded me to bring my phone(lol). We got our photos done early so we drove around town just playing music before we got back to our venue. At reception, Matt, the owner stopped by to see how everything was going. I really appreciated that he took the time out of his day with his crew already working with our guests to ensure nothing was missing. Post ceremony we had a shuttle for our guests to the hotels. Another driver, also named Matt, was driving this bus. I forgot to mention we had a second block rate at a different hotel. I brought it up and the Matt's were able to accommodate. Everyone said they got a kick out of these guys. Last ride of the night, Matt ensured me no one was left behind and he had double checked. I really appreciated that he had the consideration of my guests which I did. If I ever need another shuttle, I will definitely use the team at The Magic Shuttle and recommend to any one I know.

Definitely not worth the money! My friends and I reserved this "tour" and it was not as advertised…read more The bus picks you up in the weirdest/sketchiest parking lot and drops you off at bars, that's it. That's what they expect you to pay $300+ for. The bars were packed and no reservations were made for our tour group, so some bars had up to an hour wait. We had to eventually find our own bar down the block to not waste the hour sitting around. On top of all of that, the ride was not safe! The bus had no seatbelts and our driver was speeding like we were being chased. Don't waste your money on this poorly planned and unsafe riding "tour". I would give zero stars if I could.m

The Grand Rapids, running tours encompass such a tremendous variety of tours from murals to cemeteries and everything in between. As others have mentioned don't let the name fool you running, is not required. I've been on a few of her guided tours, and always come away with a better appreciation of our city, and its rich history. Last fall we took the Fulton Street cemetery tour on Friday the 13th and despite the abysmal cold weather and steady downpour, we found the tour engaging and interesting. She almost bombards you with too much information as her notes are plentiful and her words fly quickly it can be a lot to take in. if you have the opportunity and have a curious mind, do not hesitate to join one of these tours.

My boyfriend and I recently did a special tour of the Rad Women public art project throughout downtown Grand Rapids with GR Running Tours. Our guide Caroline was super friendly, energetic, enthusiastic, and fun to listen to! She made sure to keep everyone in the large group together and kept a pace that was manageable for all. We learned about all the women depicted in the murals as well as the local artists who painted them. The tour we took was 3+ miles but they offer shorter tours with all sorts of themes, including architecture, art, haunted spots, the history of Beer City USA, firehouses, etc.! There are many options. The tours are great for visitors and locals alike, as there is so much history to be learned. Highly recommended!
