We had a great time! Chris was very knowledgeable about Mesa Verde. The 4 1/2 hour trip was a good amount of time to see so many different areas. It was an incredible day for all!

Our tour guide Aaron was the best, he was very knowledgeable knew his archeology inside and out. Learned a lot about the native people who lived here. We were also given information regarding other sites e.g. Choco, would definitely recommend this tour for those who like history and learning. We had snacks and water available to us also.
