Amazing Experience!

I got this as an anniversary gift for my boyfriend who loves whiskey! We had the best time, perfect combination of fun and history! Couldn’t recommend enough! We recently moved to Colorado and it was a super fun date night and way to learn about the city! We are both hungover today :)

Got 3 hours in LoDo to spare? Whiskey, history & Denver done right

This downtown Denver whiskey and history walking tour was truly fantastic. We were among the few locals in our group. While others came from the West Coast and the Midwest with different appreciations for whiskey and rye, everyone had an equally wonderful experience (just make sure to drink the water when offered; we are in the high desert, after all). Will, our tour guide, was absolutely outstanding - knowledgeable, engaging, and genuinely fun to listen to. He smoothly blended Denver history, Prohibition-era and brothel stories, and whiskey tastings, keeping the pace relaxed and his storytelling lively. He surprised us with a private distillery tour, the type where you're not quite sure if you're supposed to be there! It was definitely the highlight. The whiskey selections were excellent (some common, if only to illustrate the difference with the more unique varieties), the stops thoughtfully chosen (plan on photos in Milk Alley, it's beautiful), and we gained a new perspective on the origins of Denver - things we hadn't known even as locals and products of Colorado schools! If you’re interested in a Denver whiskey tour or want a fun, unique way to explore LoDo and a bit of RiNo, I highly recommend it. Remember to plan on having a bite to eat before, and a snack after, he's not skimping on those tastings! Thanks, Will!
