Fun Fresh Fabulous - I had a great time on this tour, especially with our tour guide Victor, who was super knowledgeable and personable, especially to me and the other guests who had tons of questions.
This experience is great for both the new to town tourist, and the folks who have been here a while - I’ve lived in Colorado for the past 10 + years and learned tons of new info about the city, as well as heard some fun ghost stories 👻👻
Great paced walking with plenty of food and bathrooms around if needed!
Overall awesome way to take in the city!

Interesting Tour! - First of all, I thoroughly enjoyed our guide Victor!
He really made an effort to connect with his guests and made us feel very comfortable!
The tour included just the right amount of history and stories to make it memorable and not overwhelming. It was a fun way to get to know the LoDo area. I highly recommend this tour.

Awesome - even for locals! - Even though I’ve lived in Denver for a few years, I still learned new things and got some laughs on this diverse tour of the city. I especially liked learning about places that continue a legacy of connecting old and new, and getting to learn about and new bars, restaurants, and shops downtown!

Once again, Best Tours of Denver knocks it out of the park - We have taken a few tours with this company and loved each one, but I must say, this has got to be my favorite!! Bill, as always, is full of energy and so much great information that is engaging and spooky! Some great spots you'll hit include the great Union Station as well as the Dairy Block. I've lived in Denver almost my entire life and learned some really cool new things!! You must take this tour, especially during social distancing times to break up the day and get you some fresh air!
