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

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.

I decided to go to Denver to celebrate my birthday but my best friend couldn’t fly in until the day after me, so since I was alone for the day I booked this tour to check out the sights. And I was not one bit disappointed, frankly this was the BEST birthday experience I could’ve asked for away from home! Our tour guide Will was SO lighthearted and funny, he had everyone in our group of 7 entertained! Also he was SO incredibly knowledgeable about the history of Colorado- and he shared a wealth of interesting scientific tidbits about the different things we encountered at each stop. I learned so much on this half day tour and had an ABSOLUTE BLAST! The places/views you will see on this tour are truly breathtaking. If you’re thinking about booking this- think no more, this tour will not disappoint!! Highly recommend, and a HUGE thank you to Will for making my bday in Denver such a fun and memorable day!

We had a great time seeing all the sights. Christin was very knowledgeable about CO history, culture, environs, and even geological facts. Would very much recommend to all audiences.
