If you’re looking to see some breathtaking sights near Denver, look no further. This experience was well worth it. Five hours, great company, amazing views, and a guide with a wealth of information! Christina was an absolute pleasure and was perfectly accommodating for our group. Thank you for the awesome day trip! Those weighing their options - this tour took approximately five hours, made three long stops for exploring, and three short stops for picture taking. Plenty of water and snacks were provided. I would highly recommend. Dress in layers. Temperatures vary by about 20°, depending on your altitude. My only complaint is that the driving could have been a bit more conservative (especially with all the hills and switchbacks).

Thank you for the wonderful review and we are thrilled you felt the experience was well worth it and breathtaking. Thank you as well for leaving details for future guests trying to decide. Yes agree mountain driving on winding passes is not for the faint of heart! It helps that we are from here and grew up learning to drive on them but is also a good reminder that others are not as comfortable on these types of roads. Thanks again for touring with us and for the awesome review.

Will was a great tour guide; very knowledgeable, lots of interesting information and he made sure that people were happy with their trip. I really enjoyed myself and wished I had signed up for a longer tour.

Thank you, it's never too late to come back and take a full-day mountain tour with us. We would love to tour with you again. I agree this is the best half-day tour but if you can, take a full day tour into the mountains if your schedule will allow it. Thanks again.
