James Scott Memorial Fountain

Your guide-driver will pick you up from your downtown Detroit hotel in a comfortable private vehicle. Cross the historic MacArthur Bridge, the only bridge connecting Belle Isle to mainland Detroit, and enjoy your first views of the Detroit River. Your first stop is the heart of Belle Isle—the spectacular James Scott Memorial Fountain. Completed in 1925 and designed by renowned architect Cass Gilbert, this magnificent white marble fountain is one of the finest examples of Beaux-Arts architecture in the United States. The fountain features elegant sculptures, decorative basins, and beautiful water displays during the warmer months. Your guide-driver will share the fascinating story of James Scott, whose unexpected bequest funded one of Detroit's most iconic landmarks despite his controversial reputation. Enjoy time to walk around the fountain, admire its intricate details, and capture memorable photographs.

Belle Isle Casino

Despite its name, the Belle Isle Casino has never operated as a gambling casino. Designed by Albert Kahn and completed in 1908, the building has long served as a venue for weddings, banquets, dances, and community celebrations. Admire its elegant architecture and beautiful riverfront setting while learning about Belle Isle's social and cultural history. Interior access may be limited if private events are taking place.

Standing approximately 58 feet (18 meters) tall, it is widely recognized as the only marble lighthouse in the United States. Enjoy beautiful river views while watching freighters, sailboats, and recreational vessels travel along the Detroit River.

Belle Isle Beach

Relax at Belle Isle Beach, Detroit's favorite urban beach and one of the island's most popular attractions. Enjoy the sandy shoreline, fresh river breeze, and stunning views of downtown Detroit and Windsor, Ontario. During the summer, visitors often swim, sunbathe, or picnic here, while year-round it provides an excellent location for photography and peaceful walks along the waterfront. Note: Swimming is seasonal and subject to weather and beach conditions.

Sunset Point

Finish your Belle Isle experience at one of the island's most scenic viewpoints. Although your tour takes place in the morning, Sunset Point offers spectacular panoramic views throughout the day. Look across the Detroit River toward the Detroit skyline and Windsor, Ontario, while watching international freighters and pleasure boats travel through one of the busiest waterways connecting the Great Lakes. This stop is an ideal place for final photographs and a relaxing conclusion to your Belle Isle adventure. After exploring Belle Isle's most famous attractions, your guide-driver will return you comfortably to your downtown Detroit hotel, bringing your private sightseeing experience to a relaxing conclusion.
