My husband and I were really impressed with our trip with this company. As i'm pregnant I wasn't sure if it would be ok for me to do the trip, but I had a very prompt and lovely email response with some good information from one of the owners Christin, as well as a phonecall with her very friendly and chatty husband Rich when I called to change our pick up point.
We were really lucky in that we had absolutely beautiful weather for the day of our trip, with snow on the ground, and a clear blue sky. The van was a decent sized people carrier, and with just 9 of us on the tour we didn't feel crammed in.
The other guests were all lovely, and our guide Will, well, I can't praise him enough. He was incredibly knowledgeable, as well as being entertaining and absolutely full of stories! We had bad traffic both ways in and out of Denver, but Will impressively managed to keep up an almost constant stream of interesting and funny tales about his experiences with the local wildlife. He is also obviously a real nature lover and outdoorsman, and was as excited as we were about seeing elk, bighorn sheep, and a real treat - a bald eagle!
This trip was a great mix of sighseeing from the vehicle, as well as having a good few chances to stretch our legs with some easy walks. Even with the altitude and carrying a few extra pounds of baby, none of it was too strenuous. And we had an hour in Estes Park where we could choose our own place for lunch, and Will drove us up to Stanley Hotel for some quick pics.
We were only in Denver for a week and this was the only day we had free to see some scenery, and it was a great way to fit a lot into one day. Much better than hiring a car and trying to do it ourselves. It must have been a long day for Will, but he stayed happy and fun the whole time which can't always be easy! A huge thank you to him and the Colorado Sightseer team for a really wonderful day.
