Overview

Discover Denver one bite at a time on this three-hour walking food tour through the heart of downtown.  You'll visit 5 award-winning local Denver restaurants for delicious tastings. 

You will taste authentic Neapolitan pizza certified by Italy's AVPN, award-winning from-scratch Colorado green chile, fluffy baked empanadas from a family-owned shop, Southwestern fusion cuisine on the brand new Dairy Block, and a sweet treat from a James Beard award-winning chef inside the historic Union Station.*

In between tastings, your experienced foodie guide will share stories about Denver's rich history and architecture. From secret tunnels to world-famous bordellos, learn just how wild the west was in the city's early days.
