      Hans and Laurel went out of their way to ensure we had a fantastic day!
      We had an absolutely fantastic time on our half-day tour with Colorado Sightseer! Our group of high school students visiting from Australia was lucky to have Laurel and Hans as our guides—they were knowledgeable, fun, and went above and beyond to make the experience memorable. From exploring Red Rocks Amphitheatre to the stunning stops at Evergreen and Echo Lake, everything was perfectly organised. They even came prepared with snowshoeing gear and snacks, which was such a thoughtful touch. Their enthusiasm and expertise made the tour a highlight of our trip. Highly recommend!

      Denver-Breckenridge Full Day Mountain Tour
      The Breckenridge Ultimate Full Day Mountain Tour from Denver was amazing. The tour guide was Laurel, who was a native from Denver. She was the best tour guide, shared great stories and history of Denver. She was a great driver and made sure everyone was safe, and ensure we everyone had a great time. This tour was worth it, and highly recommend this full day tour of the greatest highlights of Denver.

      Fantastic Rocky Mountain Trip
      Ben was an awesome tour guide, he was very knowledgeable of the area and also very friendly. We had children on the tour and he took us to a spot that they could sled. They really enjoyed the experience.

      Wonderful day tour
      This is a trip I would recommend to anyone visiting Denver. My kids and I were lucky to have two guides, Ann and Hans. They did wonderfully connecting with the group and providing excellent history of the areas visited. Ann also did amazing with driving in hurricane force winds. If we visit again in summer, I will boom with them again.

      Fun packed adventure
      It was a fun day with lots of stops and interesting facts. Weather was very windy but our guide Alex made sure we still had ample stops and photo opportunities. It was a great day!

      Sit back, relax, and enjoy the majestic views!
      The tour was super fun! Anne did a fantastic job sharing the history of the area, but also many geological facts that stuck with me long after the tour was over, which is saying a lot, considering that I am a long time resident of Colorado! I would highly recommend this tour, and suggest that everyone book with Anne! Her upbeat, positive demeanor provides the perfect backdrop for a really great day.

      So Much Fun!
      We had loads of fun today with Ann our tour leader with Colorado Sightseer. We visited red rocks amphitheater, the town of Evergreen and Echo Lake up on Mount blue sky. She was extremely easy to listen to, very entertaining and made the trip so memorable for us. We plan on doing more tours with this company. They’re great!

      Red Rocks, Evergreen and Echo Lake Tour
      Long post!! Good day, I booked the 1/2 day tour about a several days before arriving to Denver. I kept checking to see if the number of attendees had changed and then the day before, I decided to call. I ended up sending an email and had also called back. When I checked the email response, the person mentioned that the phone # I had left was disconnected. I am not sure what happened there, but even if that was the case, my # was on my online registration. The trip was due to cancel because they didn't have enough people, but by the end of Monday, they had the 3 they needed to run it. That was communicated to me via text, which was great. Now, on the day of the tour, we were told to wait by the flagpole, it was extremely cold. I waited a few minutes, but as I was heading back into the building, I called the office contact and was told that an email was sent to meet inside. I never received that, but with only 3 people, why would you not at least text the riders to be sure they are aware. Alex was our guide, and it was supposed to be 5 hours according to the site. Alex was very knowledgeable and friendly. We did the Red Rocks, Echo Lake and Idaho Springs since he said that he was not comfortable driving to Evergreen with how the roads may possibly be. The main roads were fairly clear, but for Echo Lake the ride up was work and not yet cleared, but he made it. We appreciated that. So, with us going to Idaho Springs instead of Evergreen, we were first only given 30 mins. But by the time we went to one store and to the ladies' room, our time was up! We asked for more time, which we agreed on 15 more mins. That was also fine. I did ask when we would be returning to Union Station and he said between 1:15-1:30. Well, we got back BEFORE 12:30. Another one of the ladies also agreed that she felt that we could have had more time somewhere or that another spot should have been added, even locally. Again, it states 5 hours, but when you add up the timeline they provide, it is only 4 and this is why I asked what time we were getting back. I cannot say I did not enjoy the experience and history he shared, but I felt like it would be more worth $60 at most for 4 or 5 hours, not $84.

      Weather and seats.
      A bit disappointing. Couldn't go to brackenridge because of weather conditions I can't fault them for that. The alternate was echo lake, but on the day of the tour that was canceled because the weather conditions. Went to evergreen lake and a museum, but the museum was closed. The van seats we were in were made for toddlers. So incredibly small. This company needs to invest in a bus. For the price I would have just drove myself.

      Pictures don’t do it justice
      Our tour was such an amazing experience! The views were stunning and we got to see more popular areas of the park without having to wait in line because there was hardly anyone there! Honestly as a Texas girl it was super cool to see the park covered in snow, just make sure your bring a big jacket, gloves, and a hat if you go in February. Hans was a great guide very personable and always checking to make sure we were doing okay. We walked around a little bit but there wasn’t too much actual hiking if that’s something you wanted or didn’t want to do. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone who would like to see the park but can’t make it up there themselves.

    Colorado Sightseer is a well-run, totally professional and fun touring company! We learned a great deal not only about Pikes Peak, Manitou Springs and Garden of the Gods, but also of the various Colorado ecosystems, wildlife and state history. Christin was delightful - she customized the tour to meet the needs of all 9 guests, remembering everyone’s name and circumstances. You could tell this is her passion! There were plenty of opportunities for photos, bathroom breaks, big horn sheep viewing, snacking and rest when desired. I was concerned about altitude sickness at the summit of Pikes Peak. She had her facts, personal experience and such a caring attitude that I knew I was in good hands if I were to experience any symptoms. Luckily just a bit of light headedness that didn’t get in the way of enjoying the beautiful scenery and newly renovated visitor’s center. A day well spent in the natural beauty of Colorado!

    Many tours to choose from, and we did 3, Rocky Mountain National Park, Pikes Peak, and the Breckenridge/Red Rocks tour. All great, informative. The tours do take time, so you have to plan on spending the day, but it is worth it. We had a great time on all the tours. Saw wild life, Elk, Mountain Sheep, and the weather was very cooperative. Good company, small and locally owned by family, and they tend to you on a personal level. not like dealing with a large tour company. Have a great tour !

    What a great day! Magnificent scenery, well organised and 10/10 for our guide, Will. He was so interesting, informative, helpful, courteous and funny telling his little stories about the animals in the region. I learnt a lot and saw a lot. A wonderful tour.
