Wonderful insight on the history, geology, and social significance of this unique place. Perfectly paced. Kristina was very knowledgeable, engaging and she listened well. We would enthusiastically sign up for a different tour with her and she represented the company extremely well.

We had a wonderful and very educational tour with Kristina as our guide. We had gone to 2 concerts previously, but saw the south side that we had not seen before. Since Kristina is from the area, she had lots of knowledge about Red Rocks and the area. We would recommend her as a guide and definitely use this company for future tours.
Great tour with Kristina

If you’re thinking about booking a tour of Red Rocks — stop thinking and just book it with Kristina! She’s the real deal — part tour guide, part comedian, part local legend. From the moment we met her, it felt like we were exploring with an old friend who just happens to know everything about the area (and has the best insider stories to go with it). She tailored the entire experience to us — even adjusting the pace so we didn’t fall victim to that sneaky altitude. The whole tour was perfectly organized but still felt totally relaxed and personal — a rare combo. Kristina’s personality shines brighter than the Colorado sun, and her love for what she does makes the day unforgettable. We laughed, we learned, we got amazing photos, and we left feeling like locals. 10/10 — would absolutely do it again!
Great tour. Very...

We did two Urban Adventure Tours in Denver with Kristina - Red Rocks Amphitheater and History & Highlights. Both excellent and provided the perfect amount of information for the time.
