What To Expect

Royal Gorge Bridge and Park

Look down into the breathtaking Royal Gorge as this tour takes you over America’s highest suspension bridge nearly 1000 feet above the Arkansas River. Exclusive access through the south entrance to the Royal Gorge Bridge and Park and to the top of Fremont Peak allow you to see and experience true Colorado beauty.

Skyline Drive

Skyline Drive is a scenic roadway in Cañon City, Colorado. It was built by inmate labor in 1905.[1] The road starts from U.S. Highway 50, with a gradual incline up the side of a ridge. When the road crests, it winds, climbs, and falls like a roller coaster until near its end, where a scenic outlook overlooks both the city (east) and the highway (west). The single-lane, one-way road rises about 800 feet above the surrounding terrain. There are no guardrails despite sharp drop offs, and the drive is about 3 miles long.

Temple Canyon Park

Temple Canyon road winds over the Royal Gorge anticline through the ancient hunting grounds of the Ute tribe. The canyon road passes "The Temple" but you have to know where to look. Fossils can be seen along the road with other geological wonders.

Cancellation Policy

All sales are final. No refund is available for cancellations.

It was a very interesting tour. Saw places that we wouldn’t have seen on our own. Our guide was very knowledgeable.

We were on our honeymoon, and I was looking for things to do in Colorado. I almost did not book this tour because it seemed so expensive, well to be honest, it is expensive BUT is absolutely worth every penny. I had very high expectations for this tour given the price, but I can honestly say after having done the tour it feels like a bargain. Our guide, Wyatt was phenomenal. He was very knowledgable and gave us awesome information and history of the royal gorge and the city. I am so glad that we went on this tour. We got to see some great wildlife, great view of the Royal Gorge, and got to go through some of Colorado’s prettiest mountains. I will be back, and if you’re looking for something to do, book the Jeep tour. You WILL NOT regret it.

We had an amazing journey courtesy of Wade our guide. Wade shared personal knowledge of the mountain range with a passionate voice. This is far more than just a drive through rough terrain, it is a personal journey and we are very thankful. Our special needs daughter enjoyed engaging with our guide who was more than sincere in answering her questions. We highly recommend and look forward to coming back.
