Loved this tour!! Barry was organized & presented the information quickly, but in a way easy to understand. I enjoyed learning the histories of the bldgs, the foods & the people!! I wish we received MORE food along the tour, but the foods we were able to sample were OUTSTANDING!! This tour is suitable for both locals & visitors. I definitely recommend spending your afternoon learning & eating your way through LoDo Denver!
