Motown Museum, Detroit

My boyfriend and I drove from Cincinnati, Ohio to visit here and it wasn't worth the drive nor $15 pp. They sit you in a room to watch a 15 min video and although the tour guide was pretty good, all the job require is for you to remember the movie and a little history. The tour was short. 2 stars because the tour guide was nice.

Have visited this museum more than a dozen times. The tours are top notch. An incredible part of history. So much to learn!! Standing in the spaces occupied by countless artists is a great experience.

I was SO disappointed that the Motown Museum was closed AGAIN! I have visited Detroit 3 times, and every time it has not been open! I grew up on Motown Music in East L.A., my All-Time favorite singer is Smokey Robinson, and I LOVE dancing to all my Motown singers! I hope there will be a virtual tour of the museum once it is remodeled so I can finally enjoy and relive the 60's and 70's, when Motown ruled!

I was on a Road Trip in 2006 and by complete chance we connected with Martha Reeves and she took us to Hitsville, USA for a tour of the legendary Motown Studio aka "The Snake Pit". Then we were invited to a Motown alumni event at Bert's on Broadway where I met members of Smokey Robinson's Miracles, the Contours and many more cool people. I was reminiscing about the trip recently and decided to share some photos here.

Simply awesome experience! The tour guide was the best. She was informative, engaging, and certainly entertaining. As someone who grew up during this time, I really appreciated the experience.....5-stars indeed!
