4.00Tour guide Zach was great. He pointed out things of interest along the entire route and made sure we were drinking enough water for our ascent to Pikes Peak Summit. Only issue was the back bench seat of the bus was so cramped with four people sitting there. I would recommend changing the group from 13 to 12 to create a little wiggle room for the folks that have to sit in the back row. I’m 5’4” and my knees were in the back of the seat in front of me. My husband is 5’11” and he was so uncomfortable the entire ride.

5.00Monica G. Was amazing from beginning to end. She is so insightful and shared all kinds of knowledge about this entire tour. Be prepared for Pike Peak as 14,000 ft up cause most to take short breaths but even at that, she ensured we only stayed at the Summit for 30 minutes to ensure our safety. They provided us with plenty of water to stay hydrated and shared all kinds of fun facts. It was an amazing journey and if you are healthy….. go for it!!!
Great views and a great time
