Join Denver History Tours/Treasure Box Tours as we look at the modern and historical worlds of entertainment, sharing the grace of dance, the belly laughs of comedy and the pathos of dramatic works with those who perhaps have not yet had their fifteen minutes upon the stage. You won’t have to memorize any monologues, so just sit back and prepare for a ride worthy of an Oscar. You’ll end up shouting “Encore!” Tour includes a lunch break so please bring money for your meal. Fee includes step on guide, escort and transportation.

Streetcar Neighborhoods Tour

Once upon a time Denver had one of the largest streetcar systems in the nation. The streetcar linked the city to the hinterland, allowing folks to begin their suburban dreams and brought generations of workers, revelers and everyone else downtown to pursue their various purposes. Presented by Denver History/Treasure Box Tours, our ride will show you where the lines ran, how the neighborhoods they served were changed by their presence and show whole cities were able to exist because of them. The streetcars are no more, but the signs of their presence remain. As Denver spends billions to put them back, our modern Light Rail trains, it’s time to pay homage to the trolleys of the past! All Aboard! Tour includes a lunch break so please bring money for your meal. Fee includes step on guide, escort and transportation.
