Reviews
I took the small group day trip to Rocky Mountain National Park with Hans as the tour guide and I loved it! Everything went super smoothly, we saw a lot of the park, Hans was knowledgeable and entertaining. I highly recommend this tour!
Unforgettable Experience – Khem is the Absolute Best! Booking the Rocky Mountain National Park tour was easily a highlight of our trip! From the moment we met, Khem made us feel incredibly welcome with warmth, humor, and infectious enthusiasm. Khem’s knowledge of the history and hidden spots went far beyond standard scripts—every story felt personal and fascinating. The pacing was perfect, allowing us to hit key landmarks without feeling rushed. Khem was even prepared for the day's weather and somehow managed to plan the rainfall to mosrly be when we were on the van. When the skies cleared up she circled back to lookouts she didn't want us to miss. If you are considering booking this sightseeing tour, request Khem! 10/10 experience.
We had a wonderful day with Khem seeing Rocky Mountain National Park. She was so warm and inclusive of everyone in the group, and provided a lot of history and information that added to the experience. The weather was precarious at times and she was prepared and handled our transportation and comfort very well. Her clear passion and love of the area coupled with her knowledge and friendly personality made the day feel even more special. The scenery was stunning and Khem provided lots of stops for photos and gave us time to absorb the grandeur and appreciate it while also keeping us moving along. She often asked for feedback on time and stops, and wanted us to feel comfortable asking for any particular photo requests. The group really blended well and that was in large part to Khem’s encouragement of engagement. The company itself was easy to work with and impressive in its business practices. My husband and I both would highly recommend this tour.

Another Great Tour
My 4th tour with this company and i could not be happier with my experiences! They waited 15 minutes for me as my Uber was late arriving, then also waited for me when I had to stop and rest as that hike was kicking my butt! Always a great experience.
Great half-day hike with a naturalist?
Such a wonderful adventure. Our naturalist, Will, was extremely knowledgable about the flora and fauna. We tasted things along the way (turns out I love juniper berries, even though I don't like gin) and learned about knickiknack, trees, geologoy, you name it. No animal sightings, but I imagine that could be possible. From departure to arrival back in Denver, everything worked like clockwork on this trip. It was a small group and we were able to explore an area of the foothills I'd never been and capped off the hike with a beer in an restaurant steeped in Colarado history.
Hike the Rockies
Wonderful experience! Went on a day trip with my husband and had a great time. Gorgeous trail, about four miles. Our guide Will was so kind/ informative. We all learned so much. We did everything from discovering animal tracks to picking wild raspberries. Can’t wait to do it again.
Wonderful hike with a Naturalist!
I would definitely give this experience 5 stars! The excursion was seamless from pick-up to drop-off and I appreciated the thoughtful amenities that were provided (water, snacks, etc). If you're visiting CO, this is a terrific way to learn about the natural terrain and vegetation. From a visual perspective, you'll be surrounded by unique beauty (bring your camera). Our naturalist was a pro. We even got to sample wild raspberries, bear berries and juniper berries on the hike. Give it a try!
