It's a lot to explore in 8hrs tour. We really enjoy the trip and Ben from Ilimo, our tour guide made everything seems interesting and fun. He is very patient and accommodating toc our needs during the trip. In fact, he helped trace the missing camera belongs to one of the participants in the restaurant. The weather during this tour is quite dramatic. It was quite warm when we visited Garden of the Gods. But it was chilly and windy when we reached the Pikes Peek summit. In between, we visited a charming small town called Manitou Springs for lunch break. This town is famously known for its spring fountains. Overall, the trip was quite pleasant !!
