Small Group Rocky Mountain National Park Day Tour with Lunch

Overview

Rocky Mountain National Park is one of the most beautiful national parks in the USA. However, due to its size and timed entry during most of the year it can be complicated to visit so we can make the journey easy for you.

We will drive an hour and a half to Rocky Mountain park and stop briefly at the souvenir shop and visitor center. We will take a short ride to some cascades to have sandwiches and chips for lunch or in winter something hot. You can explore the falls before we move on.

Afterwards we have the option of going up trail ridge road to the highest continuous road in the USA which has great views of we can go to south to several beautiful alpine lakes and hike more. The tour is flexible depending on the group.

There is a good chance you will see some Elk and other wildlife on this tour before heading back to Denver.

If we have time we can visit the Stanley Hotel which inspired Steven King to write the Shining.

What To Expect

Rocky Mountain National Park

Rocky Mountain National Park's 415 square miles (265,807 acres) encompasses a spectacular range of mountain environments. From meadows found in the montane life zone to glistening alpine lakes and up to the towering mountain peaks, there is something for everyone to discover. Along the way explore over 300 miles of hiking trails and incredible wildlife viewing. We will leave Denver, pass Boulder and enter Rocky Mountain national park which takes about an hour and 45 minutes. We will first stop at the visitor center for 25 minutes where people can utilize the bathroom and purchase any souvenirs or snacks they might be interested in.

Rocky Mountain National Park

We will go from the visitor center about 20 minutes to stop in the park at Horseshoe falls and have sandwiches and chips for lunch. We will take a 45 minute break here. You can climb up next to the falls or take a leisurely walk on one of the several trails in the area. Afterwards we will drive up the mountain on a small dirt road.

Alpine Visitor Center

We will go up a dirt road to the highest continuous road in the park and in the US to the Alpine visitor center which takes about 45 min. From here you can sightsee and take some short hikes up to a nearby overlook. Sometimes there are nice views of Elk or other wildlife. We will take a 35 minute break before making our way down the mountain, stopping a couple times for pics before heading back to Denver which is almost 2 hours.

Had an Amazing adventure today with Jeremy! Offering hotel pick-up was a great start to the day, he communicated well, was on time and very organized. We actually got to start our tour with a trip to the Stanley Hotel, which was pretty neat. Once in the park he had the greatest little picnic area picked out for our lunch...which was a very thoughtful and amazing spread. He customized our tour to our needs and interests and had a lot of interesting stories and information to share. He even went on the hunt for some elk...and we found a herd of them! Our tour yielded many great photo ops and was easier, much more efficient, and way more enjoyable than making a trek to the park by myself. Thanks for a fantastic experience!

Thanks so much for the review Christina. That was a fun trip with Rhonda and Todd, I'm glad they also made it at the last minute. Hope you got back to Florida ok and hope you can make it out again to see more! Cheers, Jeremy.

He contacted us first and asked where we wanted to go. And thank you so much for giving us snacks and water to go on tour and taking a lot of pictures. He got off at an unexpected place and showed us a wonderful view. Also, he moved slowly so that we could take pictures. It was a good tour because it was small group, easy to walk around and the guide was kind! If you want no hiking, I really recommend this tour. Thank you for making good memories!

This day was simply amazing! Jeremy picked me up from the airport, and brought us directly to the national park. One of the most beautiful days in my life, we got to see a lot of different views of the park. Jeremy himself is a great dude, very flexible and overall a super guide. I recommend this 100% to everyone!
