Art aficionados will not want to miss a trip to the Detroit Institute of Arts, one of the most significant art collections in the country. This gigantic museum covers 658,000 square feet and features over 100 galleries filled with everything from ancient Egyptian artifacts to today’s top contemporary works.

Have a sweet tooth? You’ll definitely want to add the Sanders & Morley Candy Makers Factory Tours to your list of must-see opportunities. This famous local sweet shop has grown exponentially since it first opened its doors in Detroit. Look down along the 100-foot observation walkway and see the candies being made below you. End your tour with a delicious souvenir!

Drive out to Taylor for a fun day at the Heritage Park Petting Farm, where guests young and old alike can have fun meeting the friendly, domesticated animals. Head inside the big red barn to interact with all sorts of barnyard life, from goats and ponies to piglets and alpacas. Or, stroll over to the nature pond where you can admire koi fish, frogs and turtles (but don’t pet the wildlife!).
