There’s no better way to feel the heartbeat of a city than discovering it with a knowledgeable local by your side who has similar interests to yours. Whether you want the focus of your visit to be on art, food, nightlife, sightseeing, or culture, now you can customize a city tour with a Showaround local wherever your next destination might be.
What is Showaround? Showaround helps travellers to connect with locals who are ready to show off what they love most about their home cities – or in other words, it’s an online marketplace for private tours, where users have the freedom to tailor tours with residents before they arrive at their travel destination.
When arranging a trip with the help of a local, sightseeing becomes a more flexible and impromptu experience, as opposed to formal guided excursions or pre-packaged itineraries which are regimented to suit large groups. With Showaround locals, you can take a turn at any narrow street, café or store that catches your eye, giving you the chance to make spontaneous decisions and enjoy whatever comes your way.
The Showaround website makes it easy to find and meet locals who want to share not only tourist attractions and famous must-sees, but also what’s happening ‘behind the scenes’, as well as their favourite spots and best things to do in the city you’re visiting. You can also use the Showaround app for both iOS and Android mobile devices. With the free app, you get simple and on-the-go access to 152285 locals worldwide.
From some of the most popular metropolises around the world like Paris, London and New York to less-visited cities such as Tbilisi or Kiev, with Showaround, you’re only a few clicks away from finding the perfect local friend.

Soak up our city’s rich history as we stand where the Grand Rapids’ first settler had his fur trading post . These days, a building named after an infamous mob boss and political leader, McKay Tower, takes its place and you’ll learn the story behind it all. Moving away from Greek Revival architecture, we’ll move on to spot what was once the tallest building between Detroit and Chicago. We’ll continue our tour as we head over to one of West Michigan’s most iconic buildings, The Waters Building, the world’s largest building dedicated to furniture exhibition. Here we will learn how the ‘Furniture City’ got its name.
Learn about the people who made the city what it is today and the social groups that shaped and influenced Grand Rapids society. We are proud to have thousands of years of Native American history spread out along the banks of the river and in the 19th and 20th centuries, Grand Rapids saw waves of immigration from the Dutch, French, Polish, and Germans. As industries grew, people from all over the world, and other parts of the U.S., flocked to the city to find work and flee oppression. Grand Rapids’ rich heritage continuously becomes more diverse as our community attracts the best minds in science, innovation, the arts, and entrepreneurship.
Finally, we will discover Grand Rapids’ affinity with culture and the arts as we stroll through the city. Spot the many murals which line our streets thanks to the festival/competition ArtPrize. We’ll also learn about the inspiration that led to Maya Lin creating her famous Ecliptic in Rosa Parks Circle in the heart of the city. And we can’t forget La Grande Vitesse , Alexander Calder’s 43-feet high red sculpture. This sculpture was the first public work of art funded by the National Endowment of the Arts and we’ll fill you in on the initial controversy it caused upon its unveiling.
We are constantly researching our tours to find new stories about our fascinating city. We can guarantee you won’t be disappointed!

Our group of 7 had a great time on our ghost tour!! Almost all of us are from the Grand Rapids area, but we were astonished at how much we do NOT know about our city... 😏 We learned about ghosts, but also lot of history. Candice knows her stuff!!
I’ve lived in West Michigan for over ten years now but I’ve never seen Grand Rapids like this before! The Ghost Tour from Tours Around Michigan was so interesting and Candice was a fantastic tour guide!
