Shared Half-Day Mountain Tour in Red Rocks Evergreen and Echo Lake

Overview
This is the best half day mountain tour to get out of Denver and see the mountains without spending an entire day touring. These small group tours are designed to get you out to See, Learn and Explore not just drive past. This tour really highlights the best of our Denver Mountain Park system. Visit Red Rocks Park and amphitheater, then travel up into the mountains via  Bear Creek Canyon to the quaint mountain town of Evergreen.  Browse the local shops or enjoy a quick drink in the Saloon, winery, or local coffee shop. Witness beautiful Rocky Mountain vistas while climbing over a beautiful mountain pass to  Echo Lake at 10,600 ft.  Stroll around this beautiful glacial lake sitting at the base of 14,256 foot Mt. Evans and enjoy the mountain scenery.  Travel by historic  Genesee Mountain Park while viewing herds of Buffalo and Elk on your way back into Denver.  *Wildlife viewing not guaranteed.

OMG! Where do I start. The owner was very accommodating when our flight landed late and there was a crash on the highway so we missed our originally schedule tour. The owner was willing to give her competitor the business so that my son and I could go the tour we originally wanted. We declined so she scheduled us for this one. This tour was equipped with everything. Our guide Kristina was A-Mazing! She was equipped with everything snacks, water, viral worthy pictures spots and much information.

My wife and I were very happy with our Colorado Site Seer tour. Kristin was our guide and was fantastic. At no point were we bored. There was always beautiful scenery to look at while Kristin provide interesting information throughout the tour. She was also very helpful at suggesting the best locations for photos and always there to snap our pictures for us when needed. There were also snacks and water provided on the trip as well as stops with opportunities for additional drinks and restroom breaks. Would highly recommend this tour!

We actually took two excursions with Colorado Sightseer - The Red Rocks, Evergreen, and Echo Lake Tour as well as the Rocky Mountain National Park Tour and they were both fantastic. Christin and Will were our tour guides and both were great! It's amazing how much knowledge they both have of the ecosystems, wildlife, and history of Denver. The groups were small, the vans were comfortable and nice, and it was very laid back - we felt right at home. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and our tours.
