- PaulaE5570 contributionsThanks for your help with a CancellationI am editing a previous review when I initially was not refunded for a canceled trip. I just was impatient and didn't wait long enough as this company was wonderful to me and I have been reimbursed in entirety for two tours that I canceled. The email correspondence from the person that helped me was kind and they worked hard on my behalf. I hope to get to Colorado in the future that I can take the tours I had to cancel. Thank you for being so Kind.Written 18 February 2025
- 214ishikas0 contributionsGreat tour!Our guide Laurel was very nice and was very knowledgeable about the history and all the tit-bits about every place we visited. We loved her tour, definitely recommend.Written 17 February 2025
- E9487IMkerryp0 contributionsWonderful ExperienceWe had a great half day adventure (#7 Red Rocks, Evergreen, Echo Lake) with Hans. He was very personable and informative giving us insights and information on each location we visited. The trip was a great overview of the area. Perfect balance for a half day excursion - if you're in town for a short time, but also a great starting point for further exploration. I had an issue when I first booked the trip (it was my fault) and Colorado Sightseer was very prompt and helpful in getting it fixed. Would definitely recommend this tour.Written 11 February 2025
- dawnchristylrouv0 contributionsAmazing half-day tour in DenverIt's a fun experience to explore Denver with a small group, me and my sister took a lot of pictures, really worth the price & we had a very nice tour guide, overall it's a wonderful half-day tour.Written 8 February 2025
- Christian Brorh... M0 contributionsGreat bus trip and tour visiting Rocky Mountains during winter seasonOur guide Ben picked us up in Denver city, driving in a mid sized bus (good fit for the group). We made several stops along the way to the national park, while Ben was informing us about the surroundings. The weather was crisp, clear and cold. Remember some proper footwear - for icy conditions. Unfortunately the road to the very top mountain was closed - due to snow. Still we made some great stops and saw both mule deer and elk. All in all a very scenic, easy and relaxing way to experience the national park and surrounding areas.Written 8 February 2025
- Coastal093025699080 contributionsGreat views , great experienceAll I can say it was amazing. My tour guide was great and very informative! I had enough time to take photos and explore. Would definitely recommend.Written 3 February 2025
- kkaynr0 contributionsGood experienceI had a good time and experience wi tbh Philip on this tour. I was travelling alone and made some friends along the way. We caught a beautiful glimpse of the Rockies, Georgetown, and Red Rocks. Unfortunately, we weren’t able to make it to Loveland Pass. The van was comfortable and light refreshments were provided. Appreciated Philip narrating some of the history behind some of the places we drove past.Written 26 January 2025

- toddwX2794KN0 contributionsIncredible adventure!!Had an incredible adventure on this tour ( I call it an adventure because that's what it truly was!). I went into this with the expectations of just seeing some breathtaking sites, which we did, but our guide, Will, added so much more to the adventure with his information and insights of the entire area as well as his engaging, funny, and witty storytelling. It became not just a sightseeing tour, but an in-depth history of Denver and the surrounding area as well as all the places we stopped along the way. Yes, this is a long tour and takes the entire day, but for me, it was so worth it and an incredible value for what is in my opinion a very high-level tour. Two thumbs up!!!!Written 19 January 2025
- flipflopfool0 contributionsAmazing tourThe RMNP Winter/Spring tour truly surpassed all my expectations. The scenery was absolutely stunning, and Hans, our guide, was incredible. He was both entertaining and exceptionally knowledgeable, making the experience both fun and informative. I gained so much from the tour. He also ensured we were all comfortable with the altitude, which I appreciated. Overall, it was a fantastic day.Written 18 January 2025
- Rodfamilia0 contributionsAmazing sceneryThe Rocky Mountain winter tour was amazing. Our goal was to get the max snow experience since we live in the most southern part of Texas. Our trip was cut a little short by about 45 minutes, which we were told is not the norm, and the company gave us a small partial refund so that was greatly appreciated. Alex our tour guide was very knowledgeable and funny. It was VERY cold so go prepared. I highly recommend if you don't have the vehicle to drive in mountain snow and if you want some history with the sightseeing.Written 8 January 2025
- S33k3r-220 contributionsColorado Sightseer is TOP NOTCH. RMNP Tour is Fantastic!!Flew into Denver on November 6th and endured the first big snow storm of 2024. Wasn't sure we were going to be able to move forward with the tour. Another company cancelled their tour, but Colorado Sightseer came through and went through with the tour. We left about an hour late, but it was WELL worth the wait. Our tour guide was top-notch, and the scenery was stunning. We even got surrounded by the massive herd of elk as they traveled their yearly route. Amazing trip, and the best part of my 48 hours in Denver.Written 6 January 2025

My 4th tour with this company and i could not be happier with my experiences! They waited 15 minutes for me as my Uber was late arriving, then also waited for me when I had to stop and rest as that hike was kicking my butt! Always a great experience.

Such a wonderful adventure. Our naturalist, Will, was extremely knowledgable about the flora and fauna. We tasted things along the way (turns out I love juniper berries, even though I don't like gin) and learned about knickiknack, trees, geologoy, you name it. No animal sightings, but I imagine that could be possible.
From departure to arrival back in Denver, everything worked like clockwork on this trip. It was a small group and we were able to explore an area of the foothills I'd never been and capped off the hike with a beer in an restaurant steeped in Colarado history.

Wonderful experience! Went on a day trip with my husband and had a great time. Gorgeous trail, about four miles. Our guide Will was so kind/ informative. We all learned so much. We did everything from discovering animal tracks to picking wild raspberries. Can’t wait to do it again.

I would definitely give this experience 5 stars! The excursion was seamless from pick-up to drop-off and I appreciated the thoughtful amenities that were provided (water, snacks, etc). If you're visiting CO, this is a terrific way to learn about the natural terrain and vegetation. From a visual perspective, you'll be surrounded by unique beauty (bring your camera). Our naturalist was a pro. We even got to sample wild raspberries, bear berries and juniper berries on the hike. Give it a try!
