We LOVE Colorado Adventures. Such an awesome place with so much going on!
beautiful.... i can watch and listen to you for days. thx for the videos
Visited Denver in August for a possible relocation scouting mission & happened to go to the same Snooze & Water Grill as well as the Capital Hill District & Union Station. I echo all your sentiments about the location. Fell in love with the area from the moment I arrived & am moving there in April. Appreciate the post & will be subscribing for more Colorado content. Thank you!
Wonderful! That's so great to hear you had the same great experience. It truly is a gem, we loved Downtown and can't wait to go back. Wishing you all the best on your move!! You'll love it here. Thanks for watching!!
I love your channel so much! My family and I are relocating to Boulder County in a few days and your videos have gotten us really excited about our new chapter in Colorado! Thank you and I look forward to seeing and learning from your future adventures! :)
So great to hear! Wishing you all the best as you make the move to Colorado! You’ll love it here.
Loved your video! My husband and I are travelling to Denver by train from Salt Lake City and back. Thank you for sharing what a one-day tour can be full of fun and enjoyment.
Lived in Denver my whole life and learned things watching this - thanks!
Wonderful!! Thanks so much for watching!
Fantastic list!!
Howdy Mrs. Jeanie and hubby. Yall make me want to go see some cool things and stuff my face with awesome food. Keep it up guys! Thank you for sharing these spots with us.
Ahh! Thank you! If you've never been to downtown Denver! Highly recommend! 👌 thanks so much for watching!
I visited recently. What bothered me was the parking. On the streets it runs till 9pm when it should be till 6 pm. Also it’s also for two hours when it should be for three.
There were a lot of homeless but they didn’t bother us.
@jeanie marie my wife and I went to the Van Gough exhibit this past weekend thank you so much for the idea !!
Wonderful!! So glad you enjoyed it! Vince and I didn't want to leave. We just wanted to sit and watch it replay over and over. Such a neat experience!
Cool hotel... Noted for my next visit to Denver!
Definitely! Thanks for watching!
I'm a fourth generation Denver native and proud to be! I've seen many changes in my 50 years but still like to explore all the new restaurants and bars. I live in Capitol Hill and work downtown Denver. I've heard of all the places you went to but hadn't seen them up close but now I'm definitely going to check them out! So thank you for doing the footwork!! 😊. You have just the perfect demeanor and are such a well-spoken young lady. Look forward to seeing more of your content and happy to follow you ☺️
Ahh! Thank you so much for the kind words. I appreciate it. You definitely must go explore Denver closer up...we loved it so much. So much to do and see. You'll enjoy it. Thanks so much for watching!
I really enjoyed your video!
I remember Union Station there! Such a beautiful place! A champagne bar?! I need to try one of those places!! 😅 yum! 😋💕 The Hotel you stayed in looks really cool!!
Union Station is so beautiful! And yes, Corridor 44 champagne bar was excellent 🍾 we loved the CatBird Hotel! Such a great day! Thanks so much for watching!
wow cool

Pretty too
Love this! Very helpful. I am traveling to Denver next week- What month were you in Denver?
This was end of October! Have a great time!
I've been in Denver 25years and have seen lots of changes, mostly for the better. The only problem I have now is places like the 16th Street Mall have become havens for raucous panhandlers. But when I consider the history that goes way before me, it kind of always has been that way. It's just very pronounced now. Other than I think it's a very cool city.
Thank you for watching!!
Yes, I definitely noticed that when we were there. We just tried to blend into bigger groups of people and keep walking and that seemed to work out. It is such a beautiful city otherwise, one of our favorites.
Yo también vivo en Denver ✌️
Nice veiw
Thank you for sharing this video. You're very lovely to watch. Though I need to ask
What bag did you use for this trip?
Have you tried using a duffle bag for your travel? I recommend using the Bento Bag from Nomad Lane.
I've been using this bag for months now and it is such a hack.
I tried using packing cubes and they are amazing but now I switched to a duffle bag.
Tried Nomad Lane's Bento bag and it's a good choice.
I lived in between Denver and Co Springs for a couple years and Snooze, Early Bird Restaurant at the Landmark (in DTC), and Illegal Pete’s are 100% my favorite food stops. And of course, Insomnia Cookies. Soooooo good! I seriously miss living in Colorado so much but moved for a different job.
Yes 🙌 there are so many amazing food options! We can't wait to go back just to enjoy more restaurants! We loved Downtown Denver!
Reminds me how happy I am to live here. One block for an illegal Peet’s and a bus ride Away from Snooze
and insomnia cookies up the street
It's called 5 Points, Gentrification made it Rino! Beautiful Video overall though! Love it!
Good
Hi there, I just found your Colorado videos yesterday and they've been so helpful for my partner and I who are seriously considering a movie to Colorado (we have a trip planned for the next month to visit Boulder and Denver).
I see that you just moved to Arizona and I'm wondering if you changed your mind on CO for a specific reason or if something led you guys out? Would love to hear this story, I haven't watched your recent videos if you explained it !
I’m always struggling to come up with ideas of what to do around town and in the mountains.
Even after being in Denver over a year. Your videos have been some of the best for giving me ideas. I like the day trip style videos.
Also if you like sushi and haven’t tried temaki den, highly recommend. I prefer it over uchi and matsuhisa’s sushi. It’s under the same ownership as sushi den and izakaya den. To my understanding 2 brothers own the restaurants. One lives in Japan and sends fresh fish daily and the other manages the restaurants here in town. Also, blue island oyster bar always has amazing oysters! Definitely gonna try the seafood place y’all went to
Thank you so much for the feedback and recommendations! We LOVE sushi, so I'll definitely keep those in mind for our next visit. Thank you! I appreciate you being here and following along, glad you find my vlogs helpful. Thanks for watching!
Spencer, Denver has some of the best Mexican food in the country. Please explore and enjoy the culture of Denver locals. If you want to try some East Asian cuisine and support locals of Denver I would recommend looking in south Denver. South Federal specifically below Alameda
@@fr8nkmorales any recommendations? Always looking to try new restaurants
@@spencer5280_ Here are a few for starters. Santiago's, Chubby's, Los Gallitos (for tacos), Tamales by La Casita, Tamale Kitchen, Camargo's, Lucero's, Torta's ATM.
Thanks for the video and the hotel you stayed. It was really cool I almost decided to change my booking to go to that hotel but I think I’m just gonna stay where I’m at. I wanna head and booked a room at the Hyatt centric by the Union Station downtown. I will be coming November 2 on a Thursday and leaving Saturday. I will be seeing Deadmau5 show at Red Rocks on Friday. I’ve never been to Denver. I’m flying in from Phoenix, Arizona, and I will be taking the light rail to the union station, walking down to my hotel. We will be having a shuttle pick us up at one of the local bars to take us to the venue and back. Other than that I would like to check out some vegetarian restaurants and maybe some shopping at some cool shops and some art maybe a museum I’m still looking at things, but thank you.
Which suite type did you get at Cat Bird? And was there space for luggage somewhere?
Jeanie Marie: As always, you gave a superb performance in this enlightening expose of downtown Denver. You covered the best of the best while totally avoiding the ugly underbelly of the vile homeless encampments. KUDOS! WELL DONE!...I kinda missed seeing Ozzy in this one. But thinking about it, I'm sure he would have had his "fluff" instantly electrified & standing-on-end had you taken him inside the Marquis club while that band was blasting away!🙀🤣🤣🤣...By the way, where was Ozzy spending his time while you were shooting in downtown Denver? Is he visibly "happy" when you & Vince rejoin him?🤔
Thanks so much! We loved exploring downtown! Definitely want to go back again! Yes, I don't think Ozzy is a city cat! 😅 No Denver sdventures for him. He gets to chill at home safe and sound enjoying his cat naps and watching the birds from the window. We have an inside camera set up so we can watch him! 🤗🐈
We are visiting this fall for a nephew's wedding. We have one day in Denver before heading to Loveland. I enjoyed your videos. We will have a car. We'd like to try some of the places you mentioned. How is the parking?
I intend to visit Denver for 4 days probably on April 18, 2023. I will be staying in courtyard cherry creek denver and it is my first visit. I am coming from Canada and a senior citizen. Can you guide me, I am your subscriber also:
1. What type of clothes and shoes in these days.
2. Best places to see and particularly can I visit downtown attractions by walking. I will not have a car.
3. Best way to reach hotel from airport and other transports suggested.
4. Any other information.
Thanks and regards.
When I was a kid you’re chances of being mugged near union station were pretty high
Yikes! We felt very safe there now. It was such a beautiful area with lots of people around (not scary people 😅).
It's the same lol
Lol stop lying about the city. That's east Colfax or Civic Center not Union Station.
@@andrewgomez4169 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Not anymore! Lived there for 4 years, just left. No fear of muggings
Great info, maybe add ease of parking/cost when showcasing....11:31 random background guy's beard though!! lol....Would also be interested in a shot of the menu when you eat out so we can see if its actually affordable for some.
Thanks for watching!
😊yum
@3:07
Yeah best thing to do is get outta Denver, baby go, go. Bob Segar.
I just came back from Denver Colorado it was a horrible experience it was supposed to be my vacation 😢
What happened
I had a great time in Denver! Although they had a snowstorm that Thursday! The city did wonderfully by cleaning it up quickly and the scenery was gorgeous
how much it cost for water grill dinner
How many meters is it to drive to Denver?
Depends where you're coming from!
@@JeanieMarie I'd be coming from my house.
@@Cody_Clarke : Are you serious right now??!!
KEEP VLOGING DENVER MILE HIGH BIG NEW SMART CITY COLORADO WE WANT MORE FOOTAGE VLOGS YOUR GOING VIRAL YOUR BEING KNOWN IN MILE HIGH AS MIKE HIGH CELEBRITY'S
Um, the Van Gogh Immersive venue is permanently closed. awkward.
Hmu if near Capitol im a little introverted
Do you think one could fly in, enjoy Denver and fly out the next day but still enjoy Denver?
The matchbox bar bathroom is rated the best bar to do cocaine in.
Hello
👋
check out meow wolf next time you're in Denver
Yes, that's one we want to try out next time too!! Thanks for watching!
What no hockey
In Denver and did not get santiagos SMH
All was very small and empty in person. I have yet to find good Mexican food here!
Tamale kitchens the best I’ve found. Even though it’s cheap it’s the best I’ve had. The rest is white washed foods and it’s sucks.
@raquelnery: All of WHAT was very small??!! She covered quite a few places. Be more specific, otherwise your reviews/ comments are worthless. Just complaining, which no one wants to hear. There is a difference bewteen helpful opinions, and straight out whining......
@@janellestevens2316 went to all of it in one day ITS SOOOO SMALL, TINYYYYYYYYYYYYY
In Aspen is Las Montañas Restaurant. The best Mexican food we had. Wow. I highly recommend it
Voice goes up at end of sentence = question.
Voice goes down at end of sentence = statement.
Be prepared for all the homelessness and pan handling Unfortunately........
I wouldn’t call Denver a foodie mecca. In fact, I’d cal it a foodie desert. It’s gotten better but Denver has no real food scene compared to comparable cities. Love Denver but the food scene’s pretty bad.
You must be from California
@@hoopadooppoopnloop1267 that makes no sense.
Name one Colorado signature dish other than Rocky mtn oysters? You can’t. Name one significant pocket of ethnic cuisine people travel to Denver for? You can’t.
I’m not defending Denver, I’m pointing out that you seem like a pretentious asshole on a CZcams travel video of some couple just having fun
@@dalepellerin My point is to highlight that you sound pretentious and unnecessarily critical of a simple travel video
I'm curious.. How would the people of Denver feel if the Mayor had told people that she was going to help the children by teaching them life skills and job training then took them out on the streets and told them that when the light turns red they need to run up and start washing the windshield? Seriously. I live in a city where this really happened. Just wondering if people there would not expect more from a Mayor
No politics on my channel - that's not relevant to this video at all.
😂😂😂 Was Fox news on commercial break? And there was time to type this 💩 out.
I recently moved to Thornton/North Glenn area. California is a leftist Biden supporter hell hole. Hopefully more Conservatives here. Viva Trump amigos
@Christophermichael.w: Get lost. A time, and place. This IS NOT it!
I mostly saw homeless people and got yelled at by them in Denver.
Smoke a fat blunt
Best thing to do in Denver: don’t go to Denver. Literally pick any other city in any other state. It’s a fucking dump.
Too bad they Californiaed Colorado! Really sad that these cities and states are aloud to be torn to pieces.
