Additional Information

Our Denver excursion starts with an insightful city tour, showcasing popular sights such as the Denver Performing Arts Complex, Colorado Convention Center, Civic Center Park, and Denver Art Museum.

We will pass by the lush Cheeseman Park, the historic district of Five Points, and drive along the extensive Colfax Ave, known as the longest street in the nation. Our journey will lead us to our first stop, City Park, known for its stunning cityscape and mountain vistas.

You’ll get to appreciate colorful murals in the vibrant River North (RiNo) Art District, see Coors Field, and savor coffee and empanadas at a preferred local establishment.

Next, we will proceed with a scenic half-hour drive to the monumental Red Rocks Park and Amphitheater. As we venture through the park, the breath-taking rock formations will unfold before us, and we’ll get out to inspect the world-renowned amphitheater (if available). Our trip concludes with a brief visit to Lookout Mountain for a burst of fresh mountain breeze and sweeping views of Denver, Golden, and the majestic Rocky Mountains, prior to heading back to Union Station.

Spring break fun! - My son and I took this 1/2 day tour as part of his spring break. Jerry S did an awesome job of explaining the different parts of the city! Gave us a little extra time as well to wander Red Rocks and Overlook mountain. I highly recommend taking this tour. You get to see so much!

Great for sampling Denver - The guide was friendly and knowledgeable. There were a lot of places that he pointed out to us, and i took notes so i can visit them later. I found that the city tour part was a little too long. My 13 year olds fell asleep. The stops were very brief, not enough time to explore anything. This is perfect way to explore Denver, but not if u want to explore any one site for an extended time.
