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.

First time visiting Denver for my family of 6 adults. This food tour was a great experience to learn about Denver's history as well as try some some unique and fun food selections. Our favorites were the AVPN Marcos' pizza and the Lazo empanadas. Our guide Barry was excellent. He said he'd only been working a few months, but one would have thought he'd had this job for years. He engaged the whole group and knew all kinds of history and fun facts. He also gave great tips/ideas along the route for places to return to if we had more time. He kept us at a good pace and completed the tour in exactly 3 hours. I'd highly recommend this tour and would choose Barry again! Thank you for a great introduction to Denver. We will be back. :)

Can't rate highly enough! This food tour was so fantastic! There was nothing on the tour that wasn't delicious. We even went to one of the places for lunch the next day :) Jess was our tour guide - she is the owner of the tour business. She was amazing - very friendly, knowledgeable, amd entertaining. She gave us tons of extra little Denver details, and what made each place special. Would definitely do again - we are planning on taking a different tour of hers later this week!!
