Greenfield Village, Dearborn

It's not just a collection of old buildings. As you walk around you realize you are standing in the original buildings that are so historically important that were brought to this site but Henry Ford. You will stand inside the Wright Brothers actual workshop and learn facts about them and their impact on the world. Tour Alexander Graham Bell's lab. Tour Thomas Edison's multiple labs where he developed so many life changing inventions. The docents are interesting and knowledgeable. Ask for demonstrations, they love to show you how things work. Some of the buildings are air conditioned to preserve the contents and some are not so on really hot days make sure to plan your visit accordingly. Visit this incredible place. I'm not one to seek out history normally but I couldn't get enough of the history of this amazing place.

Wonderful for kids of all ages up to 100-plus years old. For younger kids through grade school, ride package includes carousel and unlimited train and Model T rides, horse-drawn transports, etc. Highly recommend for that age group. 1850s restaurant is excellent experience. Can easily spend a week in Village alone.

Ah-mazing experience! It really is like stepping back in time. Ride in a steam train, a Model T, or a horse drawn taxi! Everyone we spoke with was very friendly and obviously full of passion for history as well as good story tellers. I highly recommend a visit! Our whole family had a great time and I'm sure your family will too!

My goodness, the number of changes they've made over the years. It's been at least a decade since I was there last. The day started out kind of rainy but by the time we went to the Village, everything was good! Some of the buildings weren't open but that did not detract from our experience. We especially like watching the glass blower and the pottery makers. Of course everything is for sale in the gift shop. If we had more time we would have taken the old car ride. It was pretty cool watching them around town.

We had a wonderful time at the antique car festival. Everything looked so different from when I was there 24 years ago. Much cleaner, more to do and see. And all the workers were pleasant and helpful.
