Quick Details
Experience Denver’s hippest neighborhood on our new 1.5-hour RiNo (River North) walking tour. From urban charm to industrial revival, learn firsthand why Lonely Planet has named RiNo one of the top 10 must-visit neighborhoods in the US.
Our small group tours give you an intimate experience where you have time to ask questions, connect with other guests, explore works of art and get to know the neighborhood. You’ll gain an appreciation for how this area evolved from Denver’s first neighborhood to the “Harlem of the West,” to how it transformed into the creative art district it is today.
You’ll learn not only about its past, present and future but where to eat, drink and shop! We donate a portion of your admission to local organizations supporting artists, residents, and the community at large. Your tour will have a direct and positive impact in the community!
You’ll meet your experience creator (aka local guide) at Improper City in the heart of RiNo. You’ll spend the next 1.5 hours learning, laughing, walking, and experiencing the heart and soul of the neighborhood as you walk just over 1 mile.
We end the tour at the Ramble Hotel. Your local guide is here to help you make the most out of your time in Denver so don’t hesitate to ask any questions like, “what was the name of that great Tapas place you mentioned?”
You will learn some fascinating history, explore important sites, art, murals and learn how this area went from Denvers first neighborhood to a community of architects, art galleries, designers, furniture makers, illustrators, painters, media artists, photographers, sculptors and studio spaces, “Where Art Is Made”.
