The tour begins beneath the flagpole at Denver’s Union Station, where the air carries a mix of train whistles, diesel memory, and the faint tang of bourbon from nearby bars. As you step onto cobblestones that push back against the modern city, guides lead the group through narrow lanes and gas-lit facades, the stories growing sharper with every clink of glass.
