“The experience was amazing from start to finish. Communication was amazing. I received a phone call prior to arriving since I was waiting on coffee and not early like usual. The glass top coach was very comfortable with plenty of snacks and drinks. Brian was knowledgable and informative. He drove us around and pointed out things I would have missed otherwise. He offered tips on where to eat around town and how to experience more of the park after the tour. Do not miss the gas station burger that he mentioned. Excellent experience!!”

“It was a great experience overall. Jeremy was very knowledgable of the area and having just a short time in Denver this trip gave us the best overview of the city. My one grandson wasn't feeling well and Jeremy was very accommodating which was appreciated. I would definitely recommend this trip. It was nice that there were only the three of us in the van which allowed for a more personal one-on-one experience.”

“Our electric bike tour of Denver was an unforgettable experience! Collin, our guide, was not only knowledgeable about the city’s history and landmarks but also made the tour fun and engaging. The bikes were in perfect condition, which made the ride smooth and effortless. It was the perfect way to explore the city, and we felt like we got to see so much more than we would have on foot. Definitely one of the highlights of our trip—highly recommend to anyone visiting Denver!”

“Our guide was excellent! He had great knowledge of the city and for us, it was the tour of the city and meeting people that was the best part. If you're looking to be spooked or really wowed, it's probably not for you. If you're a true believer of the supernatural, this will work. If you're a person that wants to see even the tiniest bit of proof or even a mark of an occurrence....this probably isn't for you.”
2-hour Denver holiday lights bus tour from the Denver Public Library. LoDo, Larimer Square, Union Station, D&F Tower, Civic Center.
“Absolutely incredible experience with Max and Jessie! Even when the bus ran out of battery (which could’ve derailed the whole trip), they both gave it 110% to ensure the tour was unforgettable. Their positivity, professionalism, and creativity turned what could have been a hiccup into a unique adventure, showcasing even more of the beautiful city of Denver. Their knowledge and passion for the area were contagious, and they made me want to bring my family next time to share in this wonderful experience. It truly felt like a personalized tour of Denver, and I couldn’t have asked for a better team to guide us. A+ effort, A+ tour—thank you, Max…”
