The Fort Collins Ghost Tour

Highlights

Description

Step beneath the surface of Fort Collins on this immersive ghost tour through historic Old Town. Over seventy-five minutes, your guide leads you through streets, alleyways, and subterranean passageways once used by merchants and bootleggers.

Along the way, hear tales of restless pioneers, mysterious figures glimpsed in basements, and the darker chapters of the city’s Wild West past. Each stop reveals a new story—some tragic, others humorous—all grounded in local history and eyewitness accounts.

This relaxed evening walk covers about one mile and includes several staircases. It’s perfect for curious travelers, families with older children, and anyone who loves a mix of folklore and fun. Tours operate year-round, rain or shine, and can be arranged privately for groups. Bring comfortable shoes, a light jacket, and your sense of wonder—Fort Collins’ spirits are waiting.
