Overview

This is a Private, Walking Tour. NOTE: What makes this walking tour unique is that, in most cases, we take our guests into several locations. We limit the number of guests on each tour to 20; because of this, this tours tends to sell out quickly. This is where it all began, in 1856. This walking tour is a fun adventure through the oldest and most trendy neighborhood in Denver. You will be treated haunted stories.
