Deans Aspen Tours

  We're a family of four with two teen/tween kids who were *not* thrilled with the idea of a walking tour. Dean did a great job of keeping their interest and... read more covering a variety of topics from history to architecture to the local economy and much more (even some ghost stories) that gave the adults what we were hoping to learn in an hour overview. We asked a ton of other questions, and he was great at covering everything we wanted to know. Overall, the whole family enjoyed it.

  He was like having a live actor telling you a story! It was very enjoyable!
Definitely recommend for a pre dinner activity. You get to walk around Aspen... read more and learn about the history!

  What a unique and interesting experience! Dean was an engaging storyteller, interesting and fun! DO THIS FOR SURE!! - An engaging and informative dark tour, our first! Loved it! Spooky but not frightening. A well done trip into the dark side. Totally worth it

  Dean was extremely informed about the Apen history, and really had everyone engaged with the tour! I would recommend this to anyone!

  Fun way to learn about the secrets of Aspen - There is a lot to learn about Aspen. Fun to hear about the death that has shaped Aspen. People that have been hunting the people for decades.

  This was a fun tour and Dean had many stories to share that were interesting. I would recommend this tour!

  Insightful History Journey - Our tour was the best. Visually we saw Aspen from the best vantage points and visited the city’s most beautiful and historic buildings. Most noteworthy for me was Dean’s perfect... read more telling of the Ute creation story, and how the Ute valley came to be. All cultures have creation stories and they are vitally important to truly understanding history.

Furthermore, the walking helped with altitude adaptation.
