Rocky Mountain Christmas Gifts in Denver

The best Denver Christmas gifts bring Colorado's big scenery and big adventures to the people you love. Three experiences in our catalog are local to Denver and the Front Range, and all three can be booked through the winter, so start with these.

The Rocky Mountain Escape is a half-day trip from Denver up into the mountains, with someone else doing the driving so they can soak in every view. It's the most Colorado gift on this list, perfect for the friend who moved here for the peaks or the relative visiting for the holidays. See all Denver experiences. The Indoor Skydiving Experience includes two flights in a vertical wind tunnel and a personalized certificate to take home. It runs all year in any weather, and kids, teens and grandparents all fly the same tunnel with an instructor alongside, so it thrills almost anyone on your list. Browse all indoor skydiving.

The Pikes Peak COG Railway & Garden of Gods Tour fills a full day with wonder: the towering red rocks at Garden of the Gods, then the train ride up one of Colorado's most famous fourteeners. The views from the summit stretch for miles across the plains and peaks, and it's the main present on this page. If they live farther south, look at Colorado Springs experiences too.

Small Denver Christmas Gifts and Stocking Stuffers

Denver offices run a lot of Secret Santa swaps, and these small gifts are made for them, while each one still feels like a real present. An AMC Theatres® Movie Ticket is the easiest small gift to give and to love. It works any month and suits a coworker, a Secret Santa or a teenager who loves the latest releases. See more attraction tickets. A Year of Live Events: 2 Tickets Every Month turns one small present into twelve nights out, with two tickets each month for the friend who loves having plans on the calendar.

The Campfire Smores Pizza Kit. Bake it With Mel ships the ingredients along with a guided bake-along. It turns a holiday afternoon into a family baking party, and kids old enough to stir can do most of the work. More in baking classes. 36 Live Event Tickets is the bigger bundle, for someone who loves going to shows. Denver has a fantastic music and comedy scene, and three dozen tickets keep them enjoying it all year.

Denver Christmas Date Night Experiences

Paint and Sip is painting with a drink in hand, the most relaxed creative gift there is. An instructor takes them through one canvas step by step, and everyone goes home with their own masterpiece. It's a hit with couples, groups of friends and parents who swear they can't draw, and classes and workshops has more.

Blue Apron Date Night for Two sends the ingredients for a meal they cook together at home. It's a warm, cozy date night for a couple with young kids, with no babysitter and no reservation needed. See couples cooking classes. At a Pasta-Making Night a chef shows them how to mix, roll and cut fresh pasta, then they eat what they made. It runs in several cities, so the gift travels with them. Browse more cooking classes.

Denver Spa Gifts for Christmas

SPA near you with Spafinder can be used at a range of Denver-area spas, so they choose one close to home. A massage or facial after a day on the slopes or a busy holiday season feels wonderful, and they pick the treatment and the date. See spa and wellbeing. The Spafinder Wellness Gift Card for Two is the main gift in this section. It covers treatments at many venues, and the two-person version lets a couple go together and make a whole afternoon of it, a beautiful present for parents or an anniversary near the holidays.

Denver Christmas Gift Boxes

Someone living in Denver might spend Saturday at altitude and Sunday in a cooking class, which makes betting on one activity risky.

The Merry Christmas box is the festive one, made for unwrapping beside the tree, and the Bucketlist gift box brings bigger thrills for a mountain person whose list keeps growing. A Tinggly gift card works when you want to name the exact amount yourself.

Weekend stays sit under getaway gifts. The Christmas gifts hub has the rest of the family covered, budget-friendly Christmas gifts solves the office exchange, and Christmas experience gifts for kids is the place to look for younger Coloradans.

Something that changes the view. The Pikes Peak COG Railway and Garden of the Gods tour reaches the summit without the climb, and A Year of Live Events puts two tickets in their hands every month, a gift that keeps arriving long after Christmas.

Which Christmas excursion from Denver makes a good gift?

The half-day Rocky Mountain Escape is the easiest to fit into a busy holiday, out into the high country and back by evening. For a full day out, the Pikes Peak COG Railway tour heads south toward Colorado Springs.

What is a good Christmas date night gift for adults in Denver?

Paint and Sip, the Pasta-Making Night and the Blue Apron Date Night for Two all suit a couple who likes a project. The Dealer's Choice Virtual Cocktail Making Lesson brings a bartender's tricks to their own kitchen.

Yes. The recipient books the date themselves, so they can pick a crisp winter ride during the holidays and take in snow-covered peaks from the summit. The voucher has no expiry date, which takes the pressure off picking the day.
