Went on a guided tour of the Molly Brown House on 4/8/2026. I was in Denver for work and I always…read moreenjoy learning about local history where I travel. Also, with the 114th anniversary of the Titanic approaching, I figured I should learn more about the disaster's one of the most prominent survivors. My tour guide (Eli) was very informative and they talked about a lot of the inticracies of the house that I wouldn't have noticed if I had wandered around the house by myself, including details about the staircase and the method of constructing it, the wallpaper, stained glass, etc. I was particularly fascinated by how Margaret Brown leveraged her high profile status as a Titanic wreck survivor to fight for various causes such as women's suffrage, who she really was behind the legend of "Molly Brown," and the history of the house after its sale (how it became a group home for girls, and their antics of painting the lions up front and throwing things at the people passing by on the sidewalk). Definitely grateful for Eli's expertise -- shows they're really passionate about passing down the local history to the community and beyond. I left with more knowledge than I expected to learn. Thank you Eli! It was also great that the house itself contained a good number of original pieces of the house from back in the 1910s, which isn't always the case with historical houses. There was also a little back room that had original pieces from the White Star Line so people could see the plates and other things that passengers on the Titanic would have used, as well as a super detailed model of the ship itself. Will definitely be recommending this tour for anyone who plans to go to Denver.

Wow, my yesterday's visit to this historic park was so mesmerizing. It's because of their annual…read more(?) "Bright Nights" (originally a lantern festival.) It is said that they unveil a brand new theme each year and this year's theme appears to be focused on some Eastern cultures such as cherry blossom and bamboo forest with pandas. Not that I have been to many lights shows and yet I must say that I have never seen anything quite like this as far as my recollection is accurate. In its 12-acre land, the installations of lantern lights are everywhere. After 8:30pm or so when it's dark, the illuminations from the lanterns are glowing brighter than Las Vegas' illuminations (LOL - why am I comparing this to Las Vegas!!) According to the park's website, some of the sculptures are 23-foot tall (such as the cherry blossom gate.) It's currently open from Wednesday through Sunday until October 5th. And last night's was one of the adult-only nights where you must be 21+ to enter (I believe the next and last such night is Sept 17th. And this writing is as of late August of 2025.) I am already curious as to what the next year's theme is going to be. There is a centralized bar, some food vendors, a stage where a performer performs, and a DJ booth. Great for family time, girls' night or date night. Helpful staff were working tirelessly to assist all visitors. Although about 1,300 tickets were sold last night, it was never super jammed packed. There is still time to visit this enchanting light show. Not only for the locals but definitely one of the must-visit attractions for out-of-staters as well.

Every inch of the 12 acres had lights and even in the trees and bushes. So many details that it seemed realistic. Many of the lanterns were interactive such as stationary bikes or cranks to power the lights to glow even brighter. The staff were friendly and happy to help. This event is for young and old and I highly recommend going!

While on the Denver City Tour, we came by the Mamie Doud House, which was also known as the Summer…read moreWhite House, when Mamie Doud's husband, President Eisenhower, was Commander-in-Chief in the 1950's. It is located in the ritzy Capitol Hill part of town. This stately home is on the National Register of Historic Homes, as it is a well-preserved architectural example of American Foursquare. Locally, this type of house is called a "Denver Square," which simply means that the design has four square rooms on the first and second floors. According to Wikipedia "Mamie Eisenhower lived in this house from 1906 until 1916. The Eisenhowers were married in the first floor music room on July 1, 1916. Their son, John Eisenhower was born in Denver on August 3, 1922, while Mamie was living in the house." After Mamie Eisenhower's mother died in 1960, she sold the home to a real estate investor. Since then, the house has gone through several owners. It is still privately owned and not available for tours. But Denver city tour operators do stop along the street in front of the house and talk about it's history. The Mamie Doud House is something the city Of Denver is proud of, as the Doud family were prosperous and their daughter Mamie certainly married well. Mamie Doud is so beloved that a park in southeast Denver was named after her as well as a public library in Broomfield, Colorado, a suburb of Denver. As a Historic Home on the National Registry, the Mamie Doud House is a great example of America's late 19th and early 20th century architectural heritage. 4 YELP STARS.

I brought my whole family and it was enjoyable for all ages from 12 to 77- There is a bit of walking and standing but some chances to sit down.

The fun part (all of it is fun) was going inside Union Station and hearing the history that has been glossed over by historians trying to attract visitors to Denver. As the tour progresses, it gets better and better. By the time we exited Union Station, it was dark and the area was lit up with people enjoying the beautiful evening- you see pedicabs and bicycles, lit buildings and a fountain with lights in addition to the story weaver guide. This is the authentic tour to take.

My grandma didn't even need to pedal because with 3 of us pedaling it was pretty easy. I liked the bridge and the little history markers along the route. Excited to come out later and see the Christmas tour! We loved the yard games and snacks at the depot too! I'm glad the confirmation email recommended bringing water and sunscreen as it was a bit hot by the afternoon, but we were prepared. We liked the snacks at the turn around too. My grandpa especially liked the history presentation, and asked the staff lots of questions about the mines and the railroad stuff. We didn't do the audio history tour but will try it next time.

It was a hot day, we enjoyed it but we all agreed it was a "one and done". The views are good but not great. We were given a speaker to take with us. No explanation of what the purpose of the speaker was so we just synced it with our iphone and played music (which the car behind us did the same so it was dueling music). Maybe that was the purpose??? I think the concept of Colorado Railbike Adventures has so much potential and they could do so much more to make the experience unforgettable but unfortunately, there's was nothing that made me want to come back or spread the word to try this experience. The staff was nice and the manager was great at sharing some history of the RR tracks, coal mining town, and history of Erie.

I really enjoyed learning about the area's history and recent revitalization. I love it when cities can repurpose old buildings rather than tear them down.

The earbuds made it easy to hear throughout the tour even when there was traffic noise. Definitely bring plenty of water if it's hot out; there is shade which helps, but it is a walking tour so be prepared to be outside for the majority of the time.
