Our Rocky Mountain National Park tour was simply spectacular! Will, our guide was very knowledgeable about the park and surrounding sites. His knowledge about the local wildlife and plant & tree life was astounding! It was very apparent he is a true outdoor enthusiast and loves all thing nature. Will, was very attentive to the needs and wishes of our group and we felt absolutely safe during these trying times during Covid. I would definitely recommend this tour!

I would highly recommend this tour. I was a first time visitor to Colorado and I learned a lot from the knowledgeable and professional guide. She let us know where and when we would be stopping and there were plenty of bathroom breaks. All of the passengers obeyed the mask rule and there was a lot of space in the van so I felt very safe. The scenery is stunning and our guide added a couple of extra stops so that we could photograph elks. It was a great day

Great last minute getaway!!

My husband and I booked this tour as part of a last minute getaway to Denver, and we had a fantastic time!! Alex was an AWESOME guide!! He was so courteous, fun, informative, and safe. Christin, one of the owners, was so personable and helpful in making sure I was able to access the COVID waivers link. Also, the sack lunches were delicious, and I'm sure the cookies were homemade 😋 We have been delighted with the hospitality while in Denver, and will go home with many fond memories Kudos to the state of Colorado for managing to simultaneously welcome tourists and proactively fight COVID.

The experience was great. It was our first time in the Rocky Mountains and this tour is perfect for beginners and families. Lunch was tasting and our guide was sweet and helpful. Drink a lot of water. The higher we went in the mountains the easier it is to get dehydrated.

Our guide, Will, was so informative and funny. You could tell he loves nature and sharing his knowledge with you. He made the experience so enjoyable. I would highly recommend this tour. It was relaxed, but we also got to see so much. Just a note, take a warm coat with a hood for the top of the mountain. It gets cold! Thanks Will!
