Overall, I enjoyed our tour especially it was snowing. Of course, I spent more because we have to use Uber back and forth from our hotel which is near the airport to the Denver Union station because of the snowy weather that my husband hesitated to drive the rental car. Our driver and tour guide Wil was very accomodating and well knowledge of what he is doing.

Snowy sightseeing is beautiful, we are glad you agree. Many guests use the lightrail A line from out by the airport to Union Station but Uber and Lyft will work in a pinch or weather too. Thanks again for touring with us.

Throughly enjoyed the tour. Evergreen was quaint but not much there. We would have preferred another natural scenic stop. Alex was a great guide.I was with my adult son on the tour(it wasn’t an option below) they still like to spend time with their parents too😊.

We were in Denver on a whim and decided to take a tour of the area. Colorado Sightseer was highly rated on TripAdvisor, so we signed up. First, the staff at C/S worked with us to get us to the right rally point (there are three) and then followed up the morning of the tour. Nice touch. Second, our tour guide, Will, was full of information about everything from geology to ancient peoples to Denver-centric trivia. Third, the tour takes you to area hotspots near but outside of Denver proper where we enjoyed brief breaks and we could interact with the sites and take plenty of pictures. Making reservations was simple and efficient. Check in was a breeze. The van was new, clean, spacious and comfortable. Our fellow tourists made for a good trip, too. All in all, it was a very professional tour and so much better than having to drive, figure out an itinerary, find parking, and make my way around unfamiliar environs. I would strongly recommend this tour, especially for people unfamiliar with Colorado, young/old (if you can climb in/out of a van this tour’s for you), very family-friendly narrative from the guide, and those interested in spending a day in the Denver foothills.
