    17th floor observation deck view of the clock face.

    Our tour of the D&F Tower on 16th St was great! We had never been up despite being Denver natives. The views...Spectacular!...Adrenalin Rush?...just enough while out on the observation decks!...A true Denver landmark that would be a great easy tour for anyone. Elevator is about 25ft from the curb, up to the 17th floor for the initial views from the lower observation deck. 3 flights of stairs to the upper deck views. No stairs at all to get on the 17th floor deck. Highly recommended!

    We were going to be heading thru Denver on our way to see my son and wanted something interesting to do. I am always up for a historical adventure and this one did not fail. Titanic artifacts made it a plus! We chose the self guided tour, but staff were available to answer any questions. The only down side was it was a bit warm, which is to be expected from an older building, and also, the one hour seemed a bit rushed. We had the final reservation for the day, and as such, missed out on the gift store as it closed promptly at 5. It would be nice to keep it open at least 30 minutes after the final tour. Other than that, a great field trip destination for all ages!

    Rebecca was a fabulous tour guide. She talked about the geology of the houses built out of Rhyolite and Castle Rock Sandstone. We also learned about "poets row" that was constructed after the great depression. Poets row is an eclectic group of apartments, named after famous poets and other writers. This tour is well worth one's time to understand Denvers rich history as a supplier to mining communities during the gold rush. A time when many individuals became wealthy overnight. A fun walking tour!

    I've been meaning to visit for most of my life and finally took the self guided tour this weekend. it was lovely and the staff are very knowledgeable. I loved having a little information basket in each room so you can read more about the specific room and sometimes you have a sample of the wallpaper etc. in the basket to hold and examine closer. such a cool place.

    Even if I wasn't a Titanic enthusiast, this would be an awesome experience. The amount of restoration and reservation in this legendary home is Phenomenal. Milly Browns story and what she stood for lies way beyond the Titanic. I got goosebumps walking through the home and the audio, just made it that much better. The audio gives you an opportunity to feel each room and what it stood for. Highly recommend this experience!

    Capitol Hill tour guide Lindsey was well-informed and friendly. We liked the variety of houses and the stories of the occupants.

    This was a fantastic experience. I brought my seven-year-old and 10-year-old, and both really enjoyed themselves.

    I bought this City Food Tour: Seattle from Bloomspot. I showed up at the location (which was a not…read morea great part of town) and time that I was told and the tour guide did not show up. There was a group of 20-25 people all waiting for the same tour and after about 45 minutes we all decided to walk away. I received a refund from Bloomspot immediately but still have not heard a word from The City Tour Co.

    I also purchased this tour through Bloomspot. Basically, it sucked on every level, from beginning…read moreto end. A few days before the tour was scheduled I got an email from The City Tour, saying two of their four venues had backed out, but they would find suitable replacements.When we arrived for the tour we were blithely informed that there would only be three restaurants on the tour, not the four promised (and paid for.) The tour guide was hardly worthy of the name. Literally all she did was lead us from place to place, never one addressing the group about the history of the area, the restaurants we were going to, anything. At the first stop we did receive what we were promised in terms of a short speech from a restaurant worker about the history of the building. The food, however, was hardly the gormet fare we had been promised: a fried mac-and-cheese ball with (overly sweet) marinara dipping sauce. This trend repeated itself at the next two establishments: we received bar food, not gormet nibbles. And after the first restaurant, no one spoke to us at all about the history of the buildings, the style of food, anything. We had been led to believe there would be kitchen tours and cooking demonstrations: not at all so. After the tour I wrote to The City Tour to explain that I didn't feel they had delivered on what their website had promised in the least, and I felt I was owed at least a partial refund because I only visited 3 restaurants. No response, ever. I would give less than one star if I could.

We learned so much about Denver's history, how the city has evolved over the years, and the stories behind many of its historic buildings and landmarks. The tour also helped us discover several places we wanted to return to and explore in more depth. The meeting location was easy to find, and we were each given an audio headset so we could hear our guide clearly throughout the tour--a thoughtful touch that made the experience even better. If you're looking for a great introduction to Denver, I highly recommend this tour.

I really enjoyed learning about the area's history and recent revitalization. I love it when cities can repurpose old buildings rather than tear them down. The tour started and ended at the train station which is an impressive building and is nicely air conditioned which helped us cool down at the end of the tour. The earbuds made it easy to hear throughout the tour even when there was traffic noise. Definitely bring plenty of water if it's hot out; there is shade which helps, but it is a walking tour so be prepared to be outside for the majority of the time. I was very happy I was wearing my sun hat. This was a fun activity and it was great to learn about the area of Denver where we were staying.

    This is an awesome tour. The guide is totally awesome and I could tell he was very knowledgeable…read more Even skeptical believers in ghosts will enjoy the history of Denver and the compelling storytelling by the guide as a narrator. I brought my whole family and it was enjoyable for all ages from 12 to 77- There is a bit of walking and standing but some chances to sit down. Totally more interesting than walking around the area without information. The fun part (all of it is fun) was going inside Union Station and hearing the history that has been glossed over by historians trying to attract visitors to Denver. As the tour progresses, it gets better and better. By the time we exited Union Station, it was dark and the area was lit up with people enjoying the beautiful evening- you see pedicabs and bicycles, lit buildings and a fountain with lights in addition to the story weaver guide. This is the authentic tour to take.

    I fact-checked several of the "events" highlighted on the tour. All ghost stories set aside, some…read moreof the historical events were factually wrong, had no documented evidence, or were just made up. The one exception was the Chinatown massacre; but there was a meaningful historical omission: how local white-owned businesses and residents hid and protected over 100 Chinese people during that riot. The entire narration was full of Marxist-ish moral evaluations that were truly eyerolling. The real facts of Denver history in its full context (and, yes, the fun and eerie ghostly aftermath) are fascinating on their own. Falsehoods and innuendo are actually quite boring.
