What you'll do

On our Secret Food Tour: Denver-Lodo, you'll enjoy a variety of classic local foods.

You'll walk along historic streets made famous by prospectors, miners, entrepreneurs, and architects, during the Colorado Gold Rush and infamous by the confidence men, madames, saloon girls, and bank robbers of the once Wild Wild West. Modern Denver is one of the fastest growing cities in the US, and with the boom has come an incredibly rich and ethnically diverse culinary scene. Denver is home to Slow Food Nation. We'll take you to some of Denver's best spots highlighting the history and what makes each place unique. Along the way, we'll show you how to find Denver's most iconic shopping, award-winning restaurants, and local tips to make your experience truly memorable.

At the end of your tour, you'll have sampled some of Denver's most delicious dishes and gained a better understanding of our culture and history.

Quality drinks will be served at some stops, however if you would like more, a thoughtfully curated Upgraded Drinks Package is available.

WHY LODO?

Lodo is the cultural heart of the city, as well as the birthplace of our modern metropolis. You will walk in the footsteps of history while walking in view of modern gleaming high rises, as your guide helps bring the past and future together. This area began its life as a gold and silver mining camp, and within a decade, Denver rapidly grew into the wealthiest city west of the Mississippi.
