Wildsam
Wildsam is an award-winning American travel brand. Since 2012, we’ve published story-driven travel guides to help locals and travelers explore places in a deeper, more meaningful way. What makes us different: local contributors, interviews with locals of notes from chefs to actors to subway conductors, illustrations by local artists, original writing by award-winning local authors, and a pocket-friendly design.
We’re proud to announce our 2021 WILDSAM Detroit 2nd edition. Built on ingenuity and grit, Detroit is more than a comeback story; what’s unfolding is an urban renaissance, with thriving small businesses that point to a city alive and well.
