The guide, Bill, was very personalbe, knowledgable and fun. We heard many stories about Denver's wild west past and learned about the people who infulenced Denver's growth and economy. We walked through different parts of Denver and discovered the purpose of that area of Denver. We ending at the Ballpark museum with numerous historical artifacts (seats, signs, pictures, pennants) from ballparks across the country. The Ballpark museum is a bit unorganized and the space is small. This looked more like a person's personal collection of artifacts, then a museum. The pictures of the past presidents throwing out the first pitch was interesting.

Bill did an amazing job with his tales and history of Denver. I had heard Denver was a wild rowdy cow town at one time-definitely worth the time and money. Bill was a delight and learned so much fun and interesting information. Thanks Bill.
