Worth the time and effort to see Denver with a very educated experienced guide. Carol did a great job making the tour interesting and fun.
Nice experience seeing historic and contemporary sites with Carol who was an experienced Denver local with plenty of yesteryear insights . Nice for casual stroll and experiencing the city's off beat landmarks . The state capitol was awesome
