DENVER (CBS4) - Aspire Tours is offering a guided tour of holiday lights displays in Downtown Denver. The tour starts at Union Station, stops at the Christkindl Market for a cup of hot cider, goes by the City/County Building, tours through Cherry Creek and stops at the Botanic Gardens' "Blossoms of Light."

Tour members have 45 minutes to walk around the gardens before the van takes them back to Union Station.

 "I think Christmas passes so fast, so this is just a really nice event to just relax, and take in Christmas, and connect with your friends, and sing some Christmas songs," said Kathrin Troxler, co-founder of Aspire Tours.

The tour takes about 2½ hours, and costs $59, which includes the price of the ticket to "Blossoms of Light."

"The nice thing about a tour is you have a guide who is also like an entertainer," Troxler explained.
