Riley came to our hotel and picked us up in the morning. Very convenient. It’s nice to have a driver on a high alpine road that’s breathtaking but a little intimidating. You get to look around and enjoy the scenery. Our guide was engaging and knowledgeable.
Much interesting information provided about the history of the park. Wildlife viewing was over the top. Saw a bull moose and then later two male elk fighting it out to protect their harems. Riley knew where to go so we could experience this unforgettable day.

I traveled to Rocky Mountain National Park with a friend. Our tour guide, Riley provided door-to-door pick up service in Estes Park. With a private guide and driver, we were able to customize our trip into the park to match our interests Riley was an excellent driver, the car was new and well maintained and he was well informed about the history of the park. With concerns about the continuing Covid pandemic, a fully vaccinated private tour guide also provided a degree of safety. I would definately recommend this tour and the operator Explore Estes.
Great!

Going up Old Fall River road without the worries of driving giving us the ability to take in all of the sites was priceless. Riley was very knowledgeable about the park. We saw several herd of elk, marmot and pika. This tour was the highlight of our trip to Colorado.
Awesome private tour to the Rocky National Park!

Our tour guide, Riley, was very knowledgeable of the park. He told some fascinating stories about the park and historical occurrences within the park, and the local town at the gateway. We saw beautiful scenery - gorgeous mountains and valleys. Riley led us to a beautiful waterfalls. He also pointed out wildlife along the way. We were blessed to see a large heard of elk in a field as well. I would highly recommend Riley as a private tour guide for the Rocky National Park.
We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.
