Rocky Mountain National Park is one of the country's most visited parks. The region features breathtaking peaks in virtually every direction and an unspoiled, panoramic view of nature at its finest. Inside the Park, 110 peaks reach as high as 11,000 feet in altitude, including the celebrated Longs Peak, which boasts a height of 14,260 feet.

Great convenient trip to Rocky Mountain National Park out of downtown Denver. Our driver/guide, Brian, did a great job keeping us informed and entertained. Great mix of a drive tour with plenty of opportunities to explore on foot. I would recommend this group for a tour. One suggestion: less or no time in Lyons and more time at ths Stanley Hotel.

The views are beautiful to see and the guide was giving us a lot of information about Colorado and the Rocky Mountains. A great experience!

The sites were great. Beautiful scenery and lovely stops along the way and back from the national park. We stopped at a beautiful lake for lunch. However there was some confusion with my lunch that I requested. I texted the number given the day before to specifically request a vegetarian sandwich with no cheese. There was another person on the tour who thought they also requested a vegetarian sandwich so they took the only one available. Instead of resolving the matter by confirming who requested what, our driver/ tour guide Brian stated he only had one vegetarian sandwich and another person would have to take the turkey off of the regular sandwich. The other person who took the sandwich ended up giving me the sandwich I requested and apologized for the mistake after he realized his request did not go through. I did not appreciate how this matter was handled and it honestly but a damper on the rest of my day because it felt like unnecessary conflict and no help from our tour guide who did not speak to me or barely made eye contact with me for the rest of the trip. While the tour itself was a good way to see a lot over the course of the day (all clearly stated in the itinerary which was helpful) ; I would have appreciated a chance to maybe hike a little(personal preference).

My husband and I were only in Denver for a short time, so we wanted to make the most of our time and see as much as possible. This tour accomplished that goal. Dave was knowledgeable and made sure everyone saw the wildlife. I would definitely recommend.

It was a perfect day trip to the Rocky Mountains National Park from Denver. There were multiple stops at picturesque spots where we could take in the beauty of the landscape. Brian was knowledgeable about the area and shared quite a few interesting facts about the state and parks. I am really glad that I found this tour and made this trip!
