Dean's Aspen Walking Tours was such a great way to learn about the city. I highly recommend the experience and it is supporting the local economy and people.

Dean was very knowledgeable about the history of the valley and was able to answer questions, even the ones that were not directly a part of the tour. The tour is interactive, so some screaming helps make the tour more entertaining, but it is not absolutely necessary. The tour is not “scary” even though it is a ghost tour, so it would be fine for children that have an interest in history and ghost stories. It is an outdoor walking tour, but it was a leisurely stroll with several stops. Be prepared for cold weather, it’s 60 minutes outside at night, luckily it was pretty warm for our tour.

It was a pleasure hosting you on the tour. Thanks for joining me & sharing your experience. I agree it's more entertaining than "scary" but on some nights we can tap into the spookiness a bit more when conjured up. As winter rolls in dressing very warmly is key. Happy Trails!

Dean brought history to life in a fun and interactive way. The stories were so lively, they are still retained in my memory bank. A definite must for locals and visitors.

It's great to hear this brought history to life and was a memorable experience. Thanks for pointing out that it's a must for visitors & locals alike. Locals often disregard any "tour" but Aspen's DarkSide taps into a bit of local wit & is just a great way to see the town in a new light. Thank you for joining me & sharing this review. Happy Trails!
