Nice evening stroll through beautiful Capitol Hill area with our very informative and entertaining guide, Morgan. Interesting details behind some of Denver’s famous historic homes and buildings!
Patrick was our guide and he was very entertaining. Ask lots of questions to find out more about us. We live in Denver so it was interesting to get more of the history.
cool, creepy, ghosts so cool$
A fun little walkable experience that gives you a bit of haunting insight to the history of denver and the people who made the city as it is now.
We had a great experience! Our guide was very knowledgeable and fun.
Josh is great! Lot’s of history with the ghost stories. Denver weather is unpredictable in May when I went so be prepared.
Absolutely not worth it ... probably depends on your guide, which you can't control, so take this with a grain of salt. But our guide seemed like she had never spoken to a group of people before, couldn't remember facts of stories, or land a ghost story. Extremely disappointed.
Great. Guide had EMF detectors we could use. I’ve never had those on a ghost tour before. I’m a bit of a skeptic, but those things went off like crazy. A lot of history on the tour about the buildings and a bit about the people. Tour lasted 1 hour. I would recommend
We really appreciate you taking the time to leave this review. Thank you, Bill! It’s great to hear that the EMF detectors added something new and exciting to your experience. We also love that you enjoyed learning about the history of the buildings and the people tied to them; that storytelling is a big part of what we do. We’re happy you had such an engaging hour with us, and we hope to see you again for another adventure!
