Highly recommend!! They are a friendly husband and wife owned business. The customized tours are private, so it will just be your group that they'll be privately driving and walking around (they pick you up right from where you are staying in Estes Park), and so you won't be mixed with other groups like other tours might have you do. Marriah responds quickly and in detail in email, which helped get us excited for our tour. Riley gave our tour, and made sure to take us to see a waterfall, animals, and lakes, everything we requested, all with incredible 🏔️🍃🍁🍂 Colorado scenery! The tour was wonderful and he gave us a lot of information about the animals, plants, and area all along the way. He also patiently took many 📸 photos for us lol, and knew the exact spots at each stop where the best views for photos would be! Even with some of the roads closed at the end of October, they knew just where to take us so that we could still experience the highlights of breathtaking Rocky Mountain National Park. Thank you for such a memorable experience!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (P.S. They also have transportation services. We had a rental car (get AWD or 4WD if you get one), but if you don't have a car, ask them about that too!) See their website at exploreestes.com

Riley was very knowledgeable about the area. Took us to all the right places. I was especially happy to see the alluvial fan from above. I've been to Estes several times and never knew about that view. He was so accommodating with us old folks and our limitations, helping us in and out of the car, encouraging us to walk a little farther to see that special view. A very enjoyable day. Thank you, Riley.
