lufty2622024-11-25 Spooky Denver History! What a great tour! Lot's of interesting Denver history, including the spooky stuff! Amazing underground locations, super weird creepy spots (Union Station in paticular), and great insights into classy historic spots! Highly recomend to those wanting some Downtown Denver History, spooks included! AnnMar801222024-11-06 Denver Haunted Tour! We took our work team out for this tour as a company event and it was amazing! Our tour guide was so knowledgeable and loved answering all our questions. Would highly recommend. Amanda C2024-11-03 Great Ghost Tour This was a great ghost tour. We got to go to the basement of union station. This was the spookiest part of the tour. We got to learn all about the history of Denver and what it used to look like. Not too much walking and part of the tour was inside. Avrilmo2024-10-14 Lovely ghost tour Rachel was an awesome tour guide. We went inside two buildings which almost never happens on ghost tours. The stories were interesting and Rachel was informative. You definitely learn history from a different point of view. xishe2024-09-04 Great Tour For the Young & Adults We took our 9- and 11-year-old kids with us on this tour while in Denver. Our kids found it as interesting as we did, and talked about it for days afterwards. Our guide (I think her name was Rachel?) was informative, and let our kids participate in her telling of stories and demonstrating techniques. We are glad we included the tour in our vacation. Julie G2024-06-05 Fun night out Not spooky, but the stories were great and I learned some fun stuff about the city. Our tour guide, Dani was informative and funny. brandonburton8112024-02-15 Good tour! Very good tour, very good tour guide, made for a fun night and great way to learn history of Denver and learn its urban legends! lisa_whiteland2023-11-18 If you take 1 ghost tour in Denver make sure it's this one! A last minute decision on my last night in Denver & boy was I impressed. Our small group was led by Rachel who was amazing, her knowledge & enthusiasm for the history & ghostly stories of the City made it an event I won't forget. I've done 1 other ghost tour before in Melbourne Australia, I'd give that a 2 where this was definitely a 10 out of 10, I couldn't have asked for more information, spiritual or worldy. I'm not really a believer but hard to explain somethings, especially the chair under the grate at Union Station!Great few hours & worth every dollar 👌🏼 Sarah S2023-11-15 Delightful Denver Ghost Tour Loved this tour! We learned a lot about ghosts and ghouls but also some rich history of the city. Our guides were fun and knowledgeable. Definitely recommend for a fun, out of the box, tour of Denver! Connie I2023-11-03 Fun, packed with info We recently moved to the Denver area and had this on our list of things to do for many weeks. We went on Halloween night, the perfect time for the Dark Side of Denver Ghost Tour. The tour started on time and ran exactly as scheduled (2 hours). It’s an outdoor walking tour of the downtown area, so plan shoes, jackets, and bathroom needs accordingly. Suitable for all ages, but younger kids will be bored. Phil, our tour guide, is funny, charming, and incredibly knowledgeable about the Denver area. He was written several books on point (which you can buy and he’ll sign if you ask). He was also very responsive to group needs and checked in with us frequently about our tolerance for the weather (it was cold), and he was willing to divert us to a lovely bed & breakfast to warm up for part of the tour. I learned so much about the capitol building, politicians, former governors, etc. the tales were titillating,delivered by an expert storyteller with the acumen to engage, chat, give a history lesson, and walk backwards in the dark. I’ve been on many walking tours — it’s kinda my thing — and there’s usually the issue of being too dawn back and not being able to hear. Not so with Phil. He walks backwards to talk to the group, so everyone can hear. And he stops talking when crossing streets and when emergency vehicles are passing by to maintain safety and ensure everyone can hear not once did I ask “what did he say, I couldn’t hear.”The tour of the mansions adjacent to the capitol was my favorite part. So much interesting detail,conveying the history of haunted mansions through various owners, generations, establishments (restaurants, clubs etc), with the various people whose lives shaped the first ghost stories, or who subsequently lived in (and fled from) haunted mansions. For Titanic buffs, there’s even a bit about Molly Brown (but no spoilers here).If you’re looking for a haunted house or scary things to jump out at you, this isn’t it. But if you’re looking for a really interesting historical tour of haunted places in Denver, a fairly easy walk, and lots of beautiful architecture, this is FANTASTIC. Highly recommend. And we plan to do his other tours this spring
