Best tour in Estes - Dave brought the mountains to life with knowledge and made it fun. Highly recommend as the vehicle was comfortable, had great snacks, candy and drinks. Love the retractable roof.

Captain Bruce - Bruce was very knowledgeable about the area. He took us to some amazing locations with amazing views. He described all of the beautiful ecosystems, animals, plants, etc. My kids really enjoyed his vibe. We would never have taken the tour if I would’ve been a better planner and gotten our time to entry tickets, I’m glad I didn’t. Thanks Bruce!

Great Guide and Experience - Our guide Brian was extremely knowledgeable and accommodating. He took us to some of the best spots and gave us great information and tips for us to explore independently the next few days. We highly recommend him and the tour!

Great Experience Even with the Clouds and a Little Rain/Snow - Our driver, Ron, was very friendly and helpful during the tour. He was thoughtful about the comfort of his passengers (3 of us). Even though he was sort of new taking people on tours of the park, he was very knowledgeable and found answers to our questions in his notes. He knew where to find the animals we wanted to see. We got good pictures of elk and moose. He picked us up and dropped us off directly at our resort. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who want a good tour of Rocky Mountain National Park.

Terrific tour - time well spent!! - Ron was our driver and he was terrific!! He picked my husband and I up at our hotel right on time. He asked us what was most important for us to see. We said beautiful peaks and animals. Ron had a plan and the 3 hour drive delivered gorgeous views, lots of information, and plenty of turkeys, mule deer, and elk!

Good tour of Rocky Mountain - Nice tour , learn a lot about the park. Would have liked to see more animals. But that's just nature. Not all roads have been open yet. Beautiful nature.

Incredible Tour - So glad we did this tour! My husband and I toured the Rocky Mountains with Bruce and it was truly unforgettable. The scenery was simply breathtaking. Bruce knew all the best spots for photo opportunities, and he made sure we had plenty of time to soak in the incredible views. We were surrounded by towering peaks and lush meadows. The sheer scale and beauty of the landscape were truly awe-inspiring. Bruce is a true educator, sharing insights into the geology, wildlife, and history of the Rockies. One of the most profound takeaways from our tour was a newfound respect for the circle of life. Bruce's explanations helped us see the mountains not just as a beautiful landscape, but as a complex and dynamic living system. This is a must see tour!
