We had such a fun time with Rick, the owner. He was knowledgeable and a fun to be with He read the group well and picked our activities based on our interests. We highly recommend this tour to people who are looking to do something unique in Denver.

A fun way to do a first time walking tour of Denver. Rick was very knowledgeable and fun! I’m not a huge whiskey fan, but definitely also enjoyed learning about it. Excellent customer service – I forgot a jacket and shot glasses at the last stop and Rick met us the following day to return the items!

Beautiful tour of the City of Denver with history lessons! It is a lot of walking, but it is worth it at the end with a tour of the distillery and never-ending whiskey tasting! Awesome tour to take with both couples and friends.

Parking: Generally, we recommend consulting the Best Parking site for the lowest rates:
However, one of the best parking options is in the lot adjacent to Mile High Spirits (north of MHS on the left). it’s only $3 for the day (excepting Rockies games days). There is limited free parking (street-side) in the vicinity too, but many are 2-Hour Only, so beware. The tour is 2 hours long, but most likely you will not make it back to your car within that window.
