Meet Our Founder

Meet Chief Tour Ambassador Caroline Cook. She’s a running enthusiast, cheerleader for all things Grand Rapids, & history nut. As a downtown dweller, Caroline launched Grand Rapids Running Tours in 2013 as a dream come true. She LOVES meeting new people & showing off “her” city.  Whether she’s leading or researching a tour, Caroline feels right at home and can’t think of a more delicious way to spend time.

She loves fitness. She loves sharing stories.  She loves Grand Rapids.  And she’d love to share her enthusiasm with you!

“It is definitely inspiring to see what one person can accomplish with  a heap of personality, the adrenaline of a team of wild horses, some mad PR skills and a dream.” – Laurie Sienkowski
