Things to Do
There are countless things to do in Denver from roaming the 16th Street Mall to checking out one of the many museums in town. Below are a few highlights that you should definitely check out if you have the time! A few of them are right in town, and a few we would recommend renting a car and driving (look into Turo for daily rentals).
