This was a great tour. Made more interesting by our tour guide Ben. My wife and I were visiting our son who lives in Denver. Even he, a local, was impressed by the knowledge of Ben. I would highly recommend this tour.

Nick was an outstanding tour guide, very knowledgeable about the flora and fauna as well as the archeological history. Provided plenty of snacks and water and advice on how to deal with the altitude.
