Denver food tour - This food tour was amazing! The portions were large and the food was very good! Melissa was our tour guide and was very informative not only about the food, but about Denver also. She gave us many recommendations for the rest of our trip also. We also had the drinks paring and they did not disappoint. Overall best food/drink I’ve had for a long time!

Great option for entertaining out of town guests - We really enjoyed this tour. A great way to take in some Denver hot spots. The only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars is I would have liked a small appetizer at each place. We had a small bite at the first and last stop. I would have gladly paid a little more for an extra appetizer to balance it out. But overall highly recommend and would for sure do it again. Our out of town guests really enjoyed it.
