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.

Our small group had both Jess and Chris providing us with some history of downtown Denver while enjoying some wonderful savorings of downtown Denver. What made the tour more enjoyable was each restaurant made it a point to explain the dish we were to taste. The restaurants took an interest in our group and wanted to ensure that we were tasting something a little different. For just a little bit more of money I had added on the delectable drinks offered as some of the stops. We really enjoyed our three hours with Jess and Chris. They made the tour very enjoyable and interesting.

This is our first trip to Denver. Me and my husband are big foodies and we were so looking forward to the tour. Chris and Jess were great. They were both very knowledgeable and learned about Downtown Denver while getting to eat yummy food along the way. The tour was a lot of fun. Great way to spend an afternoon in Downtown Denver.
