Things to do is Denver, CO?

I am in Denver Colorado, so far we have been to, ... The Zoo, Elitch Garden Theme park, Vail/ Aspen, Cherry Creek, 16th street mall, Denver centre etc. I want to do something awesome, like a helicopter tour, or really anything.... any suggestions? :)Things to do is Denver, CO?
Try White Water Rafting; about an hour west of Denver is the town of Idaho Springs where they do White Water Rafting on Clear Creek. They also have a old Narrow Gauge Train you can take, a Gold Mine you can tour, and they are one of the entry points to take the road to Mount Evans, one of Colorado's highest peaks (14000 ft) you can drive to the top of. It is also a Historic Town, where the first Gold was discovered in Colorado (in Chicago Creek) that set off the Gold Rush into Colorado in the 1800's. It also will beat the heat of the city and the front range for the next few days.
If you have little kids, or are just a fun-loving young adult (like myself) you should go to Casa Bonita! It's one of the most famous and unique restaurants in Denver, they even reference it all the time in South Park.



Or you can go to Dave and Busters, that place is a blast.



Water world: it's one of the biggest water parks in the country.



If your into this kinda stuff, you could visit the State Capitol, it's gorgeous.



The Denver Museum of Nature and Science is amazing (and this is coming from a 19 year old who isnt normally into such things)



Good luck!Things to do is Denver, CO?
You can go the Royal Gorge it's about 2 and a half hours away from Denver. There's an aerial car that goes across the it. There's also bungee jumping there.

You can also go Alpine sliding which is sliding down a mountain on a sled. That's available in Breckenridge.
Go to Rocky Mountain National Park , about an hour from Denver...great place. go up to the top , to the Continental divide. Go to the Art Museum, Nature and Science Museum, Butterfly Pavilion in Westminster., Kayak down the Platte river right in Denver
Go to Boulder and hike up the flat-irons. The aquarium downtown is actually really nice, too. If you wanted to go crazy there you could dive/snorkel "with the sharks", or at least you could a couple months ago.
Drive to Winter park and go skiing. Or you can go rafting at clear creek. http://www.clearcreekrafting.com/ its in Idaho Springs and its awesome!!!



Hiking is fun.
drive to telluride colorado! really cool town
