October 10/26 took the Red Rock and Evergreen tour with Christina. Was a lovely trip. Christina is a local and knows the ins and outs of Denver. We were lucky to spot deers and an elk along the road. My only suggestion would be to have a longer stops especially at the Red Rock Amphitheater so we could spend time in the museum.

I took the all day Rocky Mountain National Park tour on Sept. 25th. Emily was our tour guide and was informative of the National Park and all the spots we went. The group I was apart of was amazing to be with for the day. I know a tour company can't make up how people will respond, so that was an extra bonus for a person who was traveling solo.

Nice trip despite heavy rain.

We loved the trip...the drive was good, the red rocks stop was great...as it turns out we could have stopped here a bit longer. unfortunately as we got into the mountains it poured rain, and spat hail, and the temp went down to 42f. the guide gave us a few different stops, one of which was a short walk along a stream. Still, the guide made it enjoyable. One thing...they should fix the mike.

Great Tour for Great Denver Views

This store was really good. Emily was our guide and she was amazing in many ways. The time allotted for the activities and the places we visited really gave us a good flavor for the Denver area outside the city.

Beautiful day to be in Colorado

It was a beautiful day in Colorado. We got to see wildlife, color changing of trees and some sweet little mountain towns. I Can’t say enough about our guide Emily. She was fantastic! She was funny, warm and very knowledgeable. I learned a lot on this trip. Thank you Emily!
