Wow, what an amazing day. Colorado Sightseers does not skimp on intensive, fun, fact-filled tours. I took a tour to the Rocky Mountain National Park and it was phenomenal. I had no idea I would experience so much beauty and wildlife. Our guide Jorge is just the nicest guy, so professional and always giving his all to everyone on the tour. He was so patient and truly kind. I'm suggesting everyone to come to Denver and take this tour. And ask for Jorge!

Wonderful day in Colorado...

Alex made the tour great. His knowledge of the history of the area and how organized he was made it a great day. One of the best all day tours we have booked!

So grateful to have been...

So grateful to have been able to book this tour last minute after another with a different company cancelled the day before. Alex was a friendly and knowledgeable guide that gave us plenty of time to explore on our own at each stop, and I appreciated the free history lessons in between. Truly a great value and definitely recommend!!

Good Trip spoiled by a bad Guide

The trip itself was good road trip. The vehicle was ok. The views were good at the Loveland pass which was fully covered in snow. But the timing at each stop was very less. So if you want to enjoy take a private vehicle instead of shared vehicle like this. Also I want to be very critical of the tour guide Alex. He is not a people person and the worst. I have made multiple guided tours before in Europe but Alex is the worst tour guide I have seen.

Worst tour.

Our trip organizer Alex was unnecessarily rude. We came here to enjoy ourselves, but his behavior spoiled the mood by threatening to leave us. We were only two minutes late—arriving at 1:47 pm instead of 1:45 pm—which doesn’t justify speaking to customers in such a harsh and disrespectful way.

Denver Fun

You will experience the most beautiful scenery! Hopefully you will get Alex as your guide. He was awesome!
