If you are planning to do a 4x4 tour in Colorado make it this one. If you are not planning to do a 4x4 tour, change your plans a - The 4x4 trail ride was fun and exciting, the view from the tower was breathtaking, and the guide was knowledgeable, funny, and great with the kids on the tour. The marshmallow tour was a great choice bringing you up into such a scenic place right around sunset, enjoying a campfire with s'mores and hot dogs, and then going back down the trail at night was unforgettable. My son and I spent a week in Colorado, did lots of great stuff and saw lots of gorgeous views. This was by far the highlight of the trip for us.

MUST DO in Estes Park - We had an absolute blast on our tour! CE was an AMAZING guide - super knowledgeable and personable. You can definitely tell that he - and the rest of the staff - love their jobs and have so much fun at work. We cannot wait to go back to Estes Park and go out on another tour (hopefully an astronomy tour with CE!!)

Rock-n-roll ride is awesome ! - this tour was easy to book online. Our guide -Royce- was just wonderful! Had a great playlist, is extremely knowledgeable, knows a 'few' good jokes and was just a warm genuine person. He made a great campfire - beautiful! Would definitely recommend this tour!

Amazing views, thrills, and educational - Had a fun time with my wife on this tour. Our tour guide was Theress. We were not expecting to learn so much, but Theress was very educational while keeping it fun. The views and the thrills were 10/10.

Family/friends fun for everyone - Second adventure with Wildside 4x4 Tours and always a thrill! Sam was the perfect guide once again with his crazy "dad" jokes, excellent 4x4 driving skills, and 5 star dinner service of hot dogs and s'mores. Bring your family, bring your friends (we did) and have a ton of fun!

Offroading, Smores and Soul: A Tour That Ka-Kawed Its Way Into Our Hearts - If you think hot dogs, smores, and off-roading sound like a chaotic mix—add a killer playlist and a sunset that felt handpicked by the universe, and you’ve got the recipe for one of the most unforgettable tours we’ve ever taken. We booked a private experience, and from the moment our boots hit the dirt, it was clear: every detail had been thought through. From gear to grub, nothing was left to chance. The soundtrack wasn’t just background noise—it was a curated vibe that matched every twist, turn, and toasted marshmallow. Think adrenaline meets nostalgia, with a side of smoky sweetness. Now, let’s talk about the guide. Tour guides can sometimes feel like forced fun, but ours was the glue that turned strangers into family. Sam didn’t just lead—he hosted, weaving stories, safety, and humor into a seamless experience that made our eagle group soar. And yes, we ka-kawed. Loudly. Proudly. With zero shame and maximum joy. The sunset at the end? Soul-soothing. Like nature’s mic drop on a day that already felt like a highlight reel. If you’re looking for a tour that blends adventure, comfort, and connection—this one doesn’t just deliver. It ka-kaws. Thanks for the memories, Lisa Boggs, Clayton Boggs, Austin Boggs, and Tiffany Valenti

favorite part of our trip - My husband and I went to estes park for our 30th anniversary and our 4x4 tour with Sam /the wolf as our driver was the BEST part of our trip. From our reservation with a friendly person to when we walked in the door of the office and were greeted by the owners ,everyone was so nice,funny,welcoming. This business is like being with family ( the ones you enjoy being around) !!! I recommend this tour company to anyone. They will let you decide everything about your trip. Want to sit and look at the view longer no problem, want to catch air over the bumps or want to go slow ,no problem. Want to rock out with tunes or play music trivia sure! Small group , large group they can make it memorable for any size group ( I think Sam said up to 150 people size party) . They are the only ones that have access to certain areas and the look out tower will give you the best view we saw in all of estes park. I would give them more that 5 stars if I could!!!!
