Went on a guided tour of the Molly Brown House on 4/8/2026. I was in Denver for work and I always enjoy 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. read more

I've been excited to experience the clock tower tour for a long time, and I was so happy when they fixed the elevator and reopened the tours. My expectations were blown away, you have so much freedom to explore at your own pace and get unobstructed views of downtown. The history is very rich and interesting and I will absolutely be back. Thanks! read more

Historic Denver Walking Tours - View from 17th floor viewing deck - Architectural Tours Near Me - Denver, Colorado

The Molly Brown House Museum tour exceeded expectations. We booked same-day on a relaxed Sunday afternoon, and the experience felt both intimate and insightful. Our guide was exceptional--not only covering the highlights but diving deeper to answer every question with genuine knowledge and enthusiasm. The tour offered meaningful context about who Margaret "Molly" Brown and her family were, the lives they led, and the impact they had. From the personal memorabilia to the unique features of their historic home, the details brought their story to life. If you have any interest in the Titanic's most legendary survivor--or simply love rich Denver history--this tour is absolutely worth your time. read more

Our tour of the D&F Tower on 16th St was great! We had never been up despite being Denver natives. The views...Spectacular!...Adrenalin Rush?...just enough while out on the observation decks!...A true Denver landmark that would be a great easy tour for anyone. Elevator is about 25ft from the curb, up to the 17th floor for the initial views from the lower observation deck. 3 flights of stairs to the upper deck views. No stairs at all to get on the 17th floor deck. Highly recommended! read more

Great museum and tour!! The tour guide was very knowledgeable about Margaret Brown- she never actually went by Molly! I wish the tour was a little longer but it was super informative and cool to see all the different rooms in the house! I definitely recommend it if you live in Denver or are visiting- especially if you are a Titanic fan. read more

Capitol Hill tour guide Lindsey was well-informed and friendly. We liked the variety of houses and the stories of the occupants.

Awesome! The staff at both places were so friendly and informative. My husband and I had a great time. Thank for sharing Denver history with us. read more

The guided tour was interesting and informative. Very enjoyable experience. The home is lovely.

The tour guide was so incredibly knowledgeable, it was clear that Margaret Brown was a passion for her - well beyond her role on the Titanic. I thought it was fascinating. So did my 20 year old daughter. read more

Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic. My husband and I are Titanic enthusiasts. It was such a fun experience to have for our quick overnight stay in Denver. read more

Wonderful, informative, creative in her presentation tour of the Mrs. Margaret Brown museum/home. I believe our curate was Amy - well done! First thing to know - she never ever was called "Molly." Well restored home after near being torn down at one point a few decades ago. This tour, and information shared, brings to life the family and more Mrs. Brown's strong willed, determation, interest in community building, social justice, women's voting, and so much more. Step back in time to the charm and life of the Browns through a visit to this restored home. read more

We were going to be heading thru Denver on our way to see my son and wanted something interesting to do. I am always up for a historical adventure and this one did not fail. Titanic artifacts made it a plus! We chose the self guided tour, but staff were available to answer any questions. The only down side was it was a bit warm, which is to be expected from an older building, and also, the one hour seemed a bit rushed. We had the final reservation for the day, and as such, missed out on the gift store as it closed promptly at 5. It would be nice to keep it open at least 30 minutes after the final tour. Other than that, a great field trip destination for all ages! read more

We really enjoyed the self-guided tour of the Molly Brown House Museum. Very informative with lots to see and read about.

Rebecca was a fabulous tour guide. She talked about the geology of the houses built out of Rhyolite and Castle Rock Sandstone. We also learned about "poets row" that was constructed after the great depression. Poets row is an eclectic group of apartments, named after famous poets and other writers. This tour is well worth one's time to understand Denvers rich history as a supplier to mining communities during the gold rush. A time when many individuals became wealthy overnight. A fun walking tour! read more

Even if I wasn't a Titanic enthusiast, this would be an awesome experience. The amount of restoration and reservation in this legendary home is Phenomenal. Milly Browns story and what she stood for lies way beyond the Titanic. I got goosebumps walking through the home and the audio, just made it that much better. The audio gives you an opportunity to feel each room and what it stood for. Highly recommend this experience! read more

This was a fantastic experience. I brought my seven-year-old and 10-year-old, and both really enjoyed themselves.

Did the LoDo tour with a local friend and 2 guys from Philly, just like me! Our guide, Lois, was newer, but was a longtime native and able to add her experiences to the historical stories. Our group had a blast asking questions and putting together pieces of a historical puzzle on downtown Denver, plus contrasting it with Philly. Highly recommend this tour! read more

I really enjoyed the tour. Our tour guide was awesome and we had time to explore the house on our own. Thank you.

Wonderful experience. Learned about Margaret Brown. The movies missed their mark on her life. The house is a beautiful example of late 1800s. The staff is welcoming and extremely knowledgeable. read more

I always make a point to learn the history of my vacation destinations. As a librarian sometimes that means reading biographies, memoirs, or histories about the place. Lately I'm much more fond of historical tours and I'm so glad I found the Historic Denver Walking Tour to add to a whirlwind three day CO excursion. We took the Larimer Square tour and our guide was knowledgeable and friendly. The tour length was just right, at under 2 hours and the views of the city were priceless. Would definitely recommend! read more

We opted for the self-guided tour. Easy to book and drive to. Adequately priced. All staff are very kind. No video-recording, which is understandable, but photos without flash are allowed. I am a bit of a Titanic enthusiast, and was surprised to learn the "Unsinkable Molly Brown" lived in Denver! Of course we had to visit her house. Loved learning about her and what she did for others. You aren't allowed to touch anything (it's a museum), but I was really tempted to play the Titanic theme song on the piano! There are "touch boxes" in each of the rooms. Nice relaxed way to spend my birthday :) They have a pressed penny machine in their gift shop for any of you who also collect!! read more

Visited there several years ago. Enjoyed it so much,took a friend back this week. Do the self-guided tour! You can take your time and go back to see things. So interactive. Learned things this time, I ddn't know last time. Staff friendly read more

My partner and I highly enjoyed our tour of the LoDo district! We signed up very last-minute, not knowing much about the tour, and learned so much about the history and growth of Denver. Our guide, Tamara, was very knowledgeable and friendly, and made the tour very easy to understand. She answered all of our questions, and gave us some great recommendations for the rest of the visit. Highly recommend these walking tours! read more

Wow. The Unsinkable Molly. I thought it would be mostly Titanic but the truth is this woman is more than just a survivor, this woman fought for women's rights and campaigned to be Senator of Colorado. Thank you so much for such an unforgettable tour. This tour was very dear to my heart because Titanic was my #1 movie as a little girl, but now I know why I loved Kathy Bates portrayal of Margaret Brown even more. She was much more than the tiny part she had in the Titanic story. She was the true hero of the story. read more
