What To Expect

RiNo Art District

The River North Art District "where art is made" goes by the nickname of "RiNo" and has even adopted a rhino design for its official logo, so look for creative rhinos in art and signage all around the neighborhood! The district's interesting blend of urban charm and unique industrial revival makes it a great destination for visitors. Historic warehouses and factories now house jazz bars, restaurants, brewpubs, art galleries and working studios. RiNo boasts a diverse mix of creative businesses ranging from visual artists, designers and furniture makers, to craft distillers and brewers, winemakers, creators of unique outdoor gear and small-batch coffee roasters.

If I had to describe my favorite thing about this tour, I wouldn’t be able to. This was literally some of the best hours spent in Denver. Jessica is by far a genius when she started all of this. From her excellent restaurant choices to her knowledge of RINO and the history of RINO was awesome. Not only did I learn about the local artist, but learning about the history of the chefs and how they started their restaurants made it very meaningful when eating at the various location. Not to mention each place was delicious. I wish we would have done this and all her tours. We will be back to do another one in the near future! Jessica, you’re a rockstar! Thanks for making our time memorable!

We were provided tickets to this tour through Pack Up + Go, a surprise travel agency where we emphasized our love for all things relating to food. My husband recently graduated from Culinary school and we enjoy checking out the food scene in every city. Our guide and food expert Jess was fabulous. Very knowledgeable about the food, arts, and the city. She took us to Vero for pizza, Hi Tide for poke, Los Chigones where I ate rattlesnake chorizo tacos (yes I did!), amazing tastings at Liberati, and finished it off with an ice cream at High Point Creamery. We have done a number of city Food Tours in different parts of the country and this one rocks!

Thanks for joining us, chef! I had such a blast with you two and am so grateful to Pack Up + Go for connecting us. Glad to hear you enjoyed the tastings (even that adventurous one!) and the experience. Please come back and see me on your next trip to Denver!

We did the Food & Craft Beer tour with none other than Jessica herself! I have been on a few other food tours and this one was hands down the best one yet! Jessica is SO knowledgable in the Denver food scene. I was amazed at how much I learned in such a short time. It also helps that Jessica is super easy to talk too and friendly. :) Definitely recommend this tour to anyone who love food and beer of course. I definitely could have done this tour all day long!
