What To Expect

Coors Field

Built in 1995 in the heart of downtown Denver, Coors Field is home to our beloved Rockies and a must-see stop when visiting the Mile High City.

Dairy Block

This historic block, located in downtown Denver’s LoDo neighborhood, was once home to Windsor Dairy and is now a vibrant micro-district that boasts 15 shops, 19 restaurants, seven bars, a luxury coworking space, and a 172-room boutique hotel.

Denver Union Station

Denver Union Station is the cultural hub and the “crown jewel” of the city. The addition of world-class dining, shopping, and the award-winning Crawford Hotel has revitalized and transformed Denver Union Station far beyond its humble beginnings.

Cherry Cricket

This award-winning local spot has been serving delicious burgers, Colorado green chili and local beers since 1945.

Mcgregor Square

In the heart of Lower Downtown Denver (LoDo), adjacent to Coors Field, McGregor Square spans an entire downtown block. This new development includes The Rally Hotel, residences, restaurants, retail outlets, and expansive food-hall, all circling a 17,000 square foot plaza complete with a stadium-sized LED screen.

El Chapultepec

Denver's oldest jazz club closed during the COVID-19 pandemic but still sits in a historic building near Coors Field.

LoDo

Short for Lower Downtown, LoDo is the heart and center of the Mile High City and contains some of Denver's best local restaurants and bars.

The Wynkoop

Wynkoop is Colorado’s First Brewpub. For almost three decades they have been brewing handcrafted beer in a modest basement brewery underneath Denver’s largest pool hall. Over the years the neighborhood has transformed, and Colorado’s craft beer industry has exploded.

My husband and I took this this tour on a Friday in October. Bonnie, our guide, was enthusiastic and attentive. We enjoyed all the food samples and hearing about some of the history of Colorado.The pace of the tour was on point and relaxed. We had pizza, beef heart, hot dogs, empanadas, fried bread tacos and gelato from a variety of fabulous restaurants. We would highly recommend this tour for a great time in lodo!

My fiancé and I are locals in Denver and took this tour just to do something different this weekend. We had a blast! Sarah was so personable and I loved the time she took to give us tidbits of DENVER history. All of the food was so good. We did the drink pairings as well and my favorite was the tiny dancer at the Butchers Bistro. It’s obvious that there was thoughtful consideration when picking the locations and the treats we’d get to try. We highly recommend this tour! We are going to try the other tours because we had some fun!
