Riley came to our hotel and picked us up in the morning. Very convenient. It’s nice to have a driver on a high alpine road that’s breathtaking but a little intimidating. You get to look around and enjoy the scenery. Our guide was engaging and knowledgeable. Much interesting information provided about the history of the park. Wildlife viewing was over the top. Saw a bull moose and then later two male elk fighting it out to protect their harems. Riley knew where to go so we could experience this unforgettable day.

If you want a great tour of Rocky Mountain Nat’l Park - look no further! We highly recommend hiring Riley as your private guide. He’s very knowledgeable about the history of the park, the wildlife, and stories of the pioneers that settled in Estes Park. He’s an excellent driver, allowing you to enjoy the views and helping you search the meadows for the Elk and their herds. Absolutely wonderful day!!! Bobbi & Dave
