Downtown Denver to Capitol Hill: A Self-Guided Walking

Denver sits exactly one mile above sea level, and nearly everything about it reflects that outsized ambition. On this self-guided walking tour, you'll trace the city's arc from silver boom to civic grandeur, hearing stories of con men, socialites, heist masterminds, and the unlikely figures who shaped a metropolis at the edge of the wilderness. The tour starts at the Denver Pavilions on the 16th Street Mall and quickly leads you to the Brown Palace Hotel, the city's most storied address, where presidents, royalty, and the Beatles have all checked in - and at least one guest has never quite checked out. Along the way, you'll walk through Civic Center Park - a grand neoclassical showpiece built by a mayor obsessed with Paris - and past the U.S. Mint, where a brazen 1922 armed robbery left one man dead, $200,000 missing, and a frozen corpse in a nearby garage. The tour ends on the west steps of the State Capitol, where you'll look out over Civic Center Park and the Rocky Mountains.

What are people saying about Denver

ZiolaBlue1, Aug 2026

Take this trip! And ask for Jason!!!!!

This was an amazing experience. My sister and I are so happy we did this. Our tour guide Jason truly enhanced the trip tenfold. Pikes Peak and Garden of the Gods were breathtaking. However while going from one place to the next it was awesome to have Jason bestow on us all of his knowledge of the area and sites. His humor and playfulness were refreshing. Aspire Tours is lucky to have him!

Family Fun

The tour was great. We had Mark and that was fantastic because we had read some previous reviews that said her was a knowledgeable guide so I was excited to have him lead our tour. We had a nice group of people and enjoyed the sights and some laughs together.

Spectacular Tour!

The tour was just wonderful. The meeting point was convenient and well explained. Our driver Mac shared local points of interest, and their knowledge of the flora and fauna. Taking the tour allowed everyone in our family to enjoy the scenery. We were released from worries about driving mountain roads or finding parking at each stop. The allotted time at each stop was perfect. The bus is very clean and comfortable. Mac expressed concern for everyone’s health and safety I’d recommend taking this trip

Great Tour!

The tour was amazing! Bryan was a great tour guide and kept us engaged the entire time. You can tell he really tries to make sure the tour is worth it, especially when it comes to seeing wildlife. He was determined for us to see some, and wildlife we definitely saw! Even while we were driving, he would slow down and give us time to take pictures. I highly recommend this tour.

Tammy_C, Aug 2026

Honestly, It was all...

Honestly, It was all about how authentic Gable was about his love for Colorado. We kept going up in elevation and learned more and more along the way. The weather was crazy, we went from blue skies to cloud/fog chasing us down the Echo Lake. It was all beautiful! (Take a sweatshirt!!) the weather can change quickly.

My tour with Nicole to Red Rock amphitheater, lookout mountain, and downtown Golden was a highlight of my trip. Nicole is friendly, delightful and knowledgeable. I got to know different pieces of history and fun and cute stories about Nicole as well. She will take you through some beautiful scenic roads and we even took a small detour to see bison.

Discover Rocky Mountain National Park-Small Group Tour & Picnic

Jessica_B, Aug 2026

Excellent tour, highlight of my Denver trip!

This was an excellent tour of the Rocky Mountain national park. My guide Rico had a lot of interesting information to point out on the way up, and the mountain views were fantastic! On my tour, I saw bighorn sheep, elk, marmots, picas, prairie dogs, eagles, hawks, and chipmunks! Due to the time of year, we also got to see a gorgeous waterfall on a different trail, that was very cool. The picnic lunch was very nice, and you could not beat the location. Overall, you will have a great day on this tour. Just make sure you drink lots of water and Gatorade to help with the altitude shift.

Red Rocks & Beyond

Corey_H, Jul 2026

Great morning!

Because I didn't rent a car, I booked this trip to see Red Rocks park. It was spectacular, but Golden was my favorite part of the outing. I loved dipping my feet in Clear Creek and watching the tubers float down. Ira was a fantastic guide. I only wish we'd had a little more time at each spot, but it was nice to be back downtown by midday.
