This tour is for hardcore history buffs who want to know as much as possible about wild west Salida--the fascinating stories, the bawdy brothel district, the shootouts,  architecture, culture, and facts. Lots of information and sights are crammed into a slow-walking exploration. ​Details for this tour are based on the best-selling books, The Salida Sam Histories of Salida, Colorado, written by local historian, Steven T. Chapman.  This intimate-sized tour covers 1880-1910 and is for those who enjoy getting every ounce of flavor out of a new town. While you've probably never heard of wild west Salida, the fact is this was one of the most violent, and forward-thinking, towns on the frontier.  Learn about aggressive business owners who brought electricity here in 1887 and who fought to have this tiny town serve as the State Capitol of Colorado You'll walk away knowing Salida better than long-time locals Questions? This tour is designed to be interactive--ask away!

My husband and I have lived in Salida for years and Steve showed us a side of Salida we never knew! Great tour and I'm looking forward to one of his other tours.

Steve is extremely knowledgeable; he makes history come alive. His tours in BV and Salida are well worth the time, even for locals.A+

Having just moved to Salida we thought this tour would be an interesting way to make sense of all the beautiful downtown buildings. This tour was perfect for learning the basics of Salida history and noting the details of architectural interest. Highlights were Steve's intriguing stories, the murals at Mama Di's, and getting a sense of Salida's humor and passion over the decades as it boomed and busted and now thrives. Highly recommend for tourists and townies alike.
