Private Discover Denver Bus Tour —
2, 3 or 4 Hours | Per-Group Pricing | Daily; Year-Round

Q: How is the private Discover Denver tour different from the public bus tour?

The private Discover Denver Bus Tour and the public Discover Denver Bus Tour cover much of the same downtown Denver and LoDo territory, but the experience is fundamentally different. The public Discover Denver Bus Tour is a fixed 1 hour 45 minute tour with set departure times, priced per person from $35, and shared with other guests booked on the same departure.

 

The private version reserves the entire 14-passenger shuttle exclusively for your group — no other guests aboard — with flexible 2, 3, or 4-hour duration options and pricing per group rather than per person, starting at $485 for a 2-hour tour with 1–7 guests. Private tours also offer a level of customization the public tour does not: your guide can tailor the focus, pacing, and even the starting time and meeting location to your group's preferences, simply by emailing the team in advance. If your group wants a shared, social experience with set departure times at the lowest individual cost, the public tour is the better fit. If you want exclusivity, flexible scheduling, more time on the road, and the ability to customize your itinerary, the private tour is the better choice.

 

Q: How much does a private Denver sightseeing tour cost for a group?

The private Discover Denver Bus Tour is priced per group, not per person, based on group size and tour duration.

• For groups of 1 to 7 guests: a 2-hour tour is $485, a 3-hour tour is $718, and a 4-hour tour is $960.

• For groups of 8 to 14 guests: a 2-hour tour is $588, a 3-hour tour is $880, and a 4-hour tour is $1,176.

To put that into perspective, a 2-hour private tour for a full group of 7 works out to roughly $69 per person — a competitive rate for a fully private, climate-controlled sightseeing experience with a dedicated local guide. The price is the same total whether your group has 1 guest or 7 guests in the 1–7 tier, which makes the private tour an especially good value for smaller groups, couples, or solo travelers who want a personalized experience.

 

Gratuity is not included in the listed price and is at your group's discretion. To book, email the team to inquire about availability and a time slot will be opened on the booking calendar for your group.

 

Q: Can I customize the private Denver bus tour route?

Yes — the private Discover Denver Bus Tour route can be customized based on your group's interests and schedule. While the standard itinerary covers iconic stops like Union Station, Larimer Square, the Colorado State Capitol's Mile High Steps, the Denver Art Museum, and the U.S. Mint, your guide can adjust the focus, add or remove stops, and tailor the storytelling toward what your group cares about most — whether that is history, architecture, food and drink culture, or something else entirely. 

 

You can also request a custom starting time, a custom starting location such as your hotel, and a custom ending location, rather than using the default Union Station meeting point. Please note that the route may also vary on the day of your tour due to weather, road closures, construction, time of day, or traffic, regardless of the itinerary you request.
