I am going to Detroit with my daughter. what can we do together there? |
Travel Info we are going for family doubles bowling tournament and we have one day to relax and sight see. where should we go and will it be expensive? Travel Tips There's a lot of stuff to do around here, but it depends on where you're staying, what kind of stuff you're into, and how much money you want to spend. Like everyone else said, the zoo is always a good option. But honestly, there are zoos everywhere and Detroit's isn't a fantastic one. It's in Royal Oak. The Detroit Science Center has a really cool exhibit up right now. It's called "Our Body: The Universe Within" (or something like that). It has parts of real bodies (and a few whole ones) and lots of interesting things. There's one display with all of the blood vessels from one body isolated. Also things like hearts and lungs from smokers and non-smokers. It's really neat. I think it was 20 bucks and I was there about three hours. Don't go if your daughter is younger though, some of the things (like the whole bodies, complete with faces) could be disturbing. You may want to check out some of the things downtown, like Greektown, Comerica Park (you can get really cheap Tigers tickets), and the little cafes and galleries. If you like shopping and you're in the northern suburbs, Somerset Mall in Troy is big, nice, and fun. Or Great Lakes Crossing is a ginormous outlet mall farther north on 75 in Auburn Hills. Good luck! Source(s): I live in the suburbs. Other Travel Tips Try the Detroit Zoo...which is technically in Royal Oak, but a much nicer area than Detroit. typical zoo expenses. If the weather were a bit warmer i would suggest a trip to the beach or something. dont do it together p her off it well be expensive but that is the day that you spend time with you daughter live that day like it was your last one There is the African American Museum and the Detroit Science Center all within walking distance of one another. The Institute of Arts is going to be closing for remodeling, so I am not sure about that one. There is the Detroit Historical Museum, The Zoo(in Royal Oak), there is Cranbrook in Bloomfield Hills. All of these are pretty moderately priced. Check www.citysearch.com http://greatstufftodo.com/ Go to this site. It will tell you about everything going on today. There is a calendar to show you what is going on at any day you choose. There are lots of inexpensive or free events going on now.
