How much is an Uber from Denver Airport to Golden, Colorado?

I’m meeting up with friends in Golden for semester break. I have to fly in, so I won’t have a car of my own to get there. How much is an Uber from Denver Airport to Golden, Colorado?

That sounds like fun! An Uber ride from Denver International Airport (DEN) to Golden, Colorado, could cost $60 to $159 on average. Here’s how those prices break down based on what Uber travel option you choose:
  • UberX: $60
  • Green: $71
  • Black: $129
  • UberXL: Not available
That’ll take you on a route of 36 miles and the trip would approximately be 42 minutes. It’s worth noting that different factors like traffic conditions could affect pricing, so it’s possible that available rates could be more or less expensive once you arrive at the airport.
If that sounds a little pricey in combination with your other plans, there are cheaper options you could consider. Bustang is the area’s interregional bus service, and while it doesn’t have a stop in Golden, the Denver Federal Center stop gets you pretty close. RTD’s SkyRide bus can also get you to and from Golden if the departure times align with your travel plans.
Golden’s West Rail Line also leaves the Golden stop every 15 minutes, and switching to the A line at Union Station will take you to the

airport. A one-way ticket with this option costs only $4—that’s a lot less than an Uber!
In Golden itself, car-sharing network Zipcar is an option now, too, which could be a convenient option to get around the area throughout your trip—just know that with this option, you need to drop off the car where you picked it up, so it wouldn’t be very practical for getting to and from the airport.
