Patrick was a fantastic tour guide, friendly, fun, and knowledgeable! The tour was interesting and the cocktails were delicious! I love that we got to choose between 3 options at 2 of the stops and then multiple options to select from on the 3rd! The description mentioned that a small snack was included but we didn’t get one. Not a big deal, just don’t include it if it’s not a thing.

Patrick was an absolute touchdown and we all had a great time. He had us follow a cool timeline in relation to pre/during/post prohibition and incorporated the story with the drinks and locations as we went. Great tour!

This was a great experience. We went to three different bars and had the option of 3 cocktails. The only thing is there is NO food. I read it as being good food foodies and assumed there would be something and went hungry. Confusing wording! But our tour guide Patrick was awesome.

We were looking for something a little different in Denver and this was it!! Kristina has obviously done her research and gave us some great stories about people and places related to cocktails and Denver’s history. We learned so much about the city and its characters, and about the original versions of some cocktails we know today, and how they evolved. This was a unique experience with a really fun guide! We’d love to come back with other friends and do the tour again. Hopefully with Kristina!

Loved the tour- guide was very informative and the cocktails were delicious. We explored new restaurants and had great conversation with our guide and others touring. One note- the info said that a snack would be provided, but that was not the case. All that was included was three cocktails.
