In 4 hours of travel, we visit the Red Rocks amphitheater, the Buffalo Bill tomb with a view of the frozen mountains and the city of Golden where we savor the historic local beer. Jeniffer, our guide, was great. She told many stories from the region including information about geology, wildlife, culture and good music. I strongly recommend it, even in winter.

Mel was my tour guide for the day. She was full of knowledge and very friendly! We left at 9AM and got back at 1PM. Perfect little day trip.

This tour was the perfect experience for our last day in Colorado. My fiancé and I had spent the previous 4 days in downtown Denver and had one final day before our flight in the evening. The tour was everything we expected and more. We were able to put our bags in the van since we had checked out of our hotel already before our evening flight. Jed was an absolutely fantastic tour guide. He was timely and organized but also chill and flexible when it came to making sure all of our questions were answered and that we had enough time at each stop. Jed also was highly knowledgeable about the Denver area and shared many interesting facts with us during our rides in the van between stops. Overall, this tour was a great way for us to see nature and important historical landmarks near Denver, and we thoroughly enjoyed the experience! Thank you, Jed and Aspire Tours!!
