It was a lot of walking but so fun! We got to learn a lot about denver history and see union station at night!
Guide was very knowledgeable and fun to have. Had a lot of extra history on top of the ghost stories. Wish their were more stories on the tour.
Response from Host, Aug 2026
Thank you for sharing your review! We’re glad to hear that you enjoyed your guide and appreciated the additional history he brought to the Denver After Dark experience. Denver has an incredible history that goes well beyond its ghost stories, and we love being able to incorporate those historical details into the experience. We also appreciate your feedback regarding the number of ghost stories included along the route. Guest feedback is valuable as we continue looking for ways to make our tours as engaging as possible. Thank you for joining us, and we hope to welcome you back for another spooky Denver experience!
Some of our family members traveled from another state to visit Denver, and we booked this tour because we had very high expectations based on how it was presented. We were excited to experience one of Denver's top ghost tours together. Unfortunately, the experience was nothing like what was advertised or what we expected.
The tour guide was extremely unprepared. He struggled to tell the stories, forgot important details multiple times, and didn't seem to know the material well. There was no enthusiasm, no energy, and no storytelling ability. Instead of an engaging ghost tour, it felt like we were listening to someone who had not prepared at all. It was honestly very frustrating and incredibly boring. The experience was so disappointing that our entire group decided to leave after the third stop. We simply couldn't justify continuing because it was obvious the tour was not going to improve. Rather than spending the rest of the evening on a tour that was not delivering what had been promised, we chose to leave. We paid $209.94 for six people, expecting a quality experience, but what we received fell far below any reasonable standard. To be completely honest, the entire experience felt more like a scam than a professionally operated tour.

Thank you for taking the time to provide such detailed feedback. We’re very disappointed to hear that this experience did not meet the expectations you had for your group’s visit to Denver. We understand your concerns regarding preparation, storytelling, accuracy, and the overall energy of the tour, particularly given that you were visiting with family from out of state and had been looking forward to experiencing a Denver ghost tour together. The experience you described is not the level of engagement or professionalism we want guests to encounter. Your feedback has been noted and will be shared with our operations team for review. We appreciate you bringing these concerns to our attention and giving us the opportunity to address them internally.
Normally, I would have stayed with the full tour, but it was so poor, so painful, and so ill informed, that our guests from out of town and ourselves could not bear to continue after the second stop.
Excerpts:
-During the guide’s into to the group, he stated tonight was his last tour, he was not paid well…
-“...If you have seen DIA, Union Station looks basically the same”
-The “architect person got the math wrong on the date on the front of Union Station”
-Guide stated there is a “pervert” ghost in the Brown Palace basement…. “Who knows, maybe one of you (meaning paid tour attendees) is a pervert also…..for example, I think you (pointed a guest out) could be a pervert……”
-His jokes were highly off putting and uncomfortable.
-His description of the ghosts were actually less informative than a quick chat gpt search of said topic.
-He described how he hated downtown Denver and was sorry for anyone who was from there.
-He relayed to us all of the policies of the tour company (if someone joins the group mid tour his pay would be docked unless he checked them in
-Guide stated he was super anxious because he had never led a tour as large as this one and wasn’t sure how it would go
-On the second stop he thought guests he had already checked in were new and had a super awkward a change with them while we waited and cringed
-He allowed 4 people to join late after he did his talk for the first stop and then repeated his spiel for them while we waited
Do I need to continue with the examples?
I have booked many tours via Viator and have always been pleased with the quality. This was such a bad experience, that I actually looked around for hidden camera because I thought we might be inadvertently in a “Punked” show.
I request a full refund.

Thank you for the fantastic review! We’re thrilled to hear that you had such a great time and that Michael helped make the experience both informative and enjoyable. We especially love hearing that he was able to adapt to the group and create an experience that felt engaging for everyone. And as for seeing a ghost—we understand that an unexpected paranormal encounter isn’t necessarily everyone’s idea of a good time! That certainly makes for a memorable ghost tour, though. We’ll be sure to pass your kind words along to Michael. Thank you for joining us, and we hope to see you again in Denver!
The tour guide was very nice. The tour itself was not what I expected because I thought we were going to enter some buildings and not just walk by them. It was quite boring and not worth the price. Would not recommend it to others.
Response from Host, Aug 2026
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re glad to hear that you found your guide to be nice, though we’re sorry the overall experience did not match what you were expecting. Our walking ghost tours are designed to explore Denver’s haunted history from the streets and exterior locations associated with the stories, rather than entering the buildings along the route. We understand that if you were expecting interior access, the format may have felt different from what you had anticipated. We appreciate you taking the time to share your perspective, as guest feedback helps us better understand expectations and opportunities to improve how we communicate the tour experience. Thank you for joining us.
I've done many of these types of tours and this was by far the worst. This was suppose to be an hour and a half. It ended up being only an hour. The tour guide did not recall a lot of facts. Could not remember things. Would say things like she forgets what this was or certain names. Each spot was to be 15 minutes. It was only 5 minutes at most. Long walk between spots with no interaction. Was not perfesional. Cursed when telling a story. Speed through the story. Talked about the architecture of the building more then ghost stories. I would not recommend this at all. I had a group of 5 and was a waist of my money.
Response from Host, Jul 2026
We’re sorry to hear that your group was disappointed with the tour. Our tours are designed to provide a full experience with a strong mix of haunted history, ghost stories, and local context, and we regret that this did not come through during your visit.
We appreciate the detailed feedback regarding the pacing, length of the tour, guide delivery, and professionalism. We take comments like this seriously and will review the experience internally to determine where additional coaching or retraining may be needed.
Thank you for bringing this to our attention.
Michael was delightful. He knew so much about Denver and the ghost stories attached. I loved hearing him narrate Denver history.
I went on a Tuesday after Halloween, and only one person signed up. I actually enjoyed only walking with two other people.
My ghost tour with Michael was awesome! He was very knowledgeable and personable. He shared a lot of great information that I had never known before! It was a lot of fun and an amazing tour.
Good walking tour, lots of history on Denver and the people that became the ghosts. It was worth it. Logan was fun and exciting.
Fun tour! Great ghost stories, some history mixed in. Michael is a wonderful guide who knows a lot about the city’s history. Highly recommend it if you visit Denver.
Claire was amazing, she told us a lot of information that we would have never known. It was a cold very rainy night and we still wanted to keep going.
Such a fun trip! Logan was great he gave some great facts about Denver I didn’t know and was extremely making it just an overall fun experience
Quite a bit of walking so make sure you wear good shoes. The guide shared some ghosts stories and also shared a lot of information about Denver and its sorted past.
This was far more than just a haunted tour. This was a walking tour of downtown Denver! My group was a small, intimate tour of five travelers who were all willing to share their thoughts and experiences. Not only did our guide Logan know his stuff, but seemed like the kind of guy I’d want to go party with! He gave us the low down on all the creepy stories that had derived from Denver's long history along with some seedy stories of prostitution and murder and threw in some mysterious building where security seemed to be pretty tight. Logan even took us past piano bars and street musician while giving us a little insight on the local karaoke bars and restaurants. Indeed, this was far more than just a “haunted tour.” A tour that was well worth the price.
Amazing, very informative and our guide was personable, which I greatly! My hubby and I were not well versed with Denver, CO so as we learned about hauntings, etc., we were also able to see what was around the area, too.

Thank you for joining us on the tour! We hope you had a great time learning about the ghosts and hauntings in Denver!
I appreciated that the group was small- only 9 people total. The tour guide told us it was her first time doing that tour, so she often had to rely on her phone to get us where we needed to go- I feel we lost valuable time of the tour when this happened. Most of the tour was walking around more than stopping and really explaining what had happened. I was expecting more of an in-depth, truly, spooky experience. I felt it was a more ‘history of downtown Denver’ than a true ghost tour. I was disappointed. I would not do this tour again.
Response from Host, Aug 2025
Thank you for your feedback. We're glad you appreciated the small group size, but we’re sorry to hear the tour didn’t meet your expectations. We understand how frustrating it can be when the experience doesn’t align with what was advertised, especially when you're hoping for something spookier and more immersive.
Your comments about the pacing, content, and guide preparation are noted and will be shared with our team to help improve future tours. We appreciate you giving us a try and hope you'll consider joining us again down the road for a stronger experience.
Great experience and tour. Logan was awesome and very informative. He gave a lot of background and the storytelling was on point! Highly recommend.
Response from Host, Aug 2025
We're glad you had a great time with Logan. Thanks for your recommendation!
The host was very knowledgeable and was local so he knew the city very well. You will get a good feeling for the city
Our tour guide was a nice guy, but the stories he told were bland and obviously fake. It was supposed to be an adults only tour, with good, dark historical stories and the only adult thing mentioned was one cuss word.
Many people in our group left within the first 30-40 minutes (including us). And the only scary part was the tour catching up with us and spooking us so..
Response from Host, Nov 2024
Thank you for your feedback as it allows us to better our tours in the future.
Logan was great! He was very knowledgeable about the history of Denver and enthusiastic at delivering these horror stories. You can feel the strong energy from the city’s history. Was a great experience, definitely recommend!
Great time. History, tall tales, brisk walk! Our guide had a lot of energy and cultivated a great experience.
Response from Host, Oct 2024
Glad that you had a great time and was able to enjoy the tour!
Great tour in a small group. Andrew provided plenty of entertainment and knowledge. Would recommend.
Response from Host, Oct 2024
Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback. Glad to hear that you had a great time and enjoyed your tour!
Tour guide was a nice guy, but not a very good story teller. Did not seem to really know a lot of history .
Response from Host, Oct 2024
Thank you for the feedback, We will address this moving forward.
Friday 7/26/24 tour guide lacked charisma,details, scary stories and was boring. Our group was very disappointed.
Logan had a wealth of history about Denver. Thank You for a fantastic tour and sharing your knowledge with us and showing us all the beautiful buildings and what spooky ghosts inhabit them.
Guide was nice, another guide joined and had some input to add but mostly surface level on the research.
More walking than talking. Stories were hit or miss not much historical facts about the buildings or the back stories of the people who died their. Just walked a huge circle with the guide who was more excited about the 7Eleven sitings than historical stories.
Group management was hard with the guide starting stories before all were together.
We would have loved to hear more about the tunnels and brothels etc...
Logan had lots of good ghost stories! Liked hearing about the history of many of the older buildings.
About a 1.5-2 mile walk. Nice small group.
Logan was a great tour guide. The tour is just around downtown Denver area. Some of the stories were interesting.
