About this event

Come join our team of amazing, fun, friendly locals and jump into exploring Denver the best way possible: on foot and through our unique pay-what-you-wish model*! We'll see & experience Denver's unique sights, landmarks and history together, plus see some hidden spots & hear some fun stories that even many locals don't know about.

We kick things off at the Mile High Steps of the Colorado State Capitol & hit the streets for our walking cultural & history adventure of Denver. We'll explore Denver's Civic Center & hip LoDo (Lower Downtown) areas together, including 11 of our favorite sights while also digging into the great culture & history that make our Mile High City so unique. If you're the type that likes a little bit of everything: history, culture, art, & architecture; this tour's for you.

This experience also takes you to the old Carnegie Library, the famous Art Museum complex, the gorgeous Civic Center Park, & our U.S. Mint, where you'll hear some epic heist stories. We'll then walk a few blocks to LoDo to visit the famous Big Blue Bear, two must-sees: Larimer Square and Union Station, & more.

We give great recommendations after your experience ends. Along the way, you'll have plenty of opportunities to take pics, ask Qs, & learn more in 2-2.5 hours than you thought possible!

*Pricing:

While our 10 a.m. Denver downtown tours operate under a pay-what-you-like tipping model, our third-party ticketing and booking system (Eventbrite) does have a $2.50 booking/ticketing fee per guest. This fee goes to Eventbrite, not to Denver Walking Tours. Thank you so much for your support and understanding on this!

Denver Walking Tours do not charge an up-front price for our free walking tours - we operate on a "pay-what-you-wish" gratuity model. Why? We aim to make experiencing Denver accessible to all guests, regardless of budget, and we think that you should decide how much your Denver tour experience was worth to you and what your host's time, talent and expertise were worth to you when your tour is finished and that any amount you choose to give should go directly to your guide.

With your local tour guide (Blaine, Jill, Mariah, Cami, Dick, Alyce, Brian, Glenn, or Janine depending on the day you join us) working for gratuities only, you know we are going to go the extra mile to make sure that you have a GREAT Denver walking tour, enjoy your experience, learn something new, answer any questions you have, and give great local recommendations. If you enjoyed your tour experience, just tip your amazing guide what you feel their time was worth to you!

Organized by

Jill and Matt live in downtown Denver, love the city, and only wished there was a free walking tour available back when they moved to beautiful Colorado.  They've surrounded themselves with a team of guides who are just as passionate and knowledgeable about Denver and the unique history, architecture, and landmarks that make Denver their home.

Working with Jill and Matt is a team of twelve guides. Professional, charismatic, and dynamic - we couldn't be happier with the job they do. Our guides are a mix of professionals - tour guides, comedians, actors, history buffs, teachers, storytellers, and world travelers. With the DWT's team you get energy, enthusiasm, wit and wisdom!  We're also great at giving local recommendations to the city we love - restaurants, shows, sites, attractions - we've got you covered!
