Private Three Hour Afternoon Custom Tour of Rocky Mountain National Park

Private Three Hour Afternoon Custom Tour of Rocky Mountain National Park

Overview

Custom tour designed for you and where your interests are. We are not on a schedule and can even adapt as we go depending upon what we find on your special day.

I am a local historian and naturalist who has lived in the area for over 50 years. I consider myself an interpreter of nature adding color to the already stunning beauty you'll see. We'll concentrate on the myriad wildlife, the diverse biology, and incredible geology of the Rockies. We'll also get insight into what it might have been like for early pioneers and lodge keepers as well as indigenous people like the Arapaho, Cheyenne, and Ute.

My tours are completely flexible so if you want to hike for 3 or 4 miles, great! Or if you just want sit back and relax and enjoy the view that's fine too! Either way we'll stop often to photograph and talk about the amazing sights.

What To Expect

Rocky Mountain National Park

This tour begins with meeting your party at your lodging in Estes Park or at the Estes Park Visitor Center on 500 Big Thompson Ave. Follow me in the safety and comfort of your own vehicle as we talk on a 2 way radio and make a few short stops to view historical sites and look for wildlife in the Estes Valley before heading into Rocky Mountain National Park. In winter our destination is Bear Lake for breathtaking snowy scenery or maybe a short snowshoe walk in the forest! In summer our destination is Trail Ridge Road the highest continuous road in the US. Both tours include plenty of stops for wildlife viewing, photography and a short hike as you and the time allow.

Bruce was such a delight. He answered all of our questions and kept us moving to new sites for the entire tour. He covered geology, biology, conservation, and local history. He was warm and personable; it was more like driving around with a friend.

What an amazing tour of RMNP! Bruce has deep knowledge of of the park, and the surrounding area. He made a point to taking to us to locations with great panoramic views of the mountains and valleys, and provided us with recommendations for hikes and sights for us to explore after the tour. The tour was a highlight of our visit to the Park. I highly recommend this tour.

Bruce, picked us up @ the Visitors Center, drove through the town of Estes Park to RMNP. He explained the history of the park, present, & hopefully the future. We stayed mostly in the Van due to the wind & cold on that day. We did visit many of the parks within RMNP. We ventured out @ some areas, also @ Bear Lake just magnificent to see natural lake @ over 9,000 ft. We returned to Estes Park to their Golf Course, & saw at least 30-50 Elks. Wonderful ending to our tour.
