Hey there, I’m Sammy, and I’m here to walk you through the top five travel options between Denver and Breckenridge.
Don’t sweat it; I’ve got your back with this guide, including pricing details and estimated travel times. Let’s jump right in!
1. Renting a Car $40-$60
If you’re a road-trip aficionado like me, renting a car is your ticket to freedom. Prices hover around $40-$60 per day, plus gas. Expect the drive to take around 2 hours, depending on weather and traffic.
Pro tip: if the car rental companies at Denver International Airport pricy or busy, try booking something outside the airport. Taking the light-rail(train) for $10 per person to downtown Denver might save you some money.
Closest Car Rental companies to the Airport with free shuttle service:
For your information: the free shuttle service is available on the fifth flour. After you pick your luggage head out the nearest exist and keep walking to the fourth lane. Some bus drivers might be able to help you finding out if their company except walk-ins or not.
2. Shuttle Service $65-$90
For the stress-free option, shuttle services are golden. Prices range from $65-$90 per person for a one-way ticket. The trip typically takes about 2 to 2.5 hours, giving you time to unwind and soak in those breathtaking mountain views.
Here are a couple of shuttle services:
You’ll find the pick-up spot on the fifth floor, right by lane number two. Different shuttle and bus companies have their own preferences – some pick up passengers at the main door. It really depends on the size of the bus.
3. Ride-share $120-$200+
So, you know, Uber and Lyft basically rule the scene when it comes to getting around Denver Airport. I saw this billboard at the airport saying they snag almost 80% of all the folks needing a ride.
Anytime you roll in, there’s a car ready to whisk you away. The trip itself? Well, that’s a bit of a gamble, usually between 1.5 to over 2 hours, depending on how the roads and traffic are playing.
Oh, here’s the deal – not every driver is thrilled about heading to the mountains, especially for the basic rides. It’s all about the dead-heading thing, you know? So, just keep that in mind if you’re planning a scenic mountain escape with your rideshare.

4. By Bus $12
If you’re watching those pennies, the Summit Stage bus system is your friend at around $12 for a one-way ticket. The trade-off? It takes a bit longer, around 3 hours, but you’ll save some cash for that extra cup of cocoa on the slopes.
