Steve was an Amazing tour guide, he was excellent in every way. He looked out for everyone's best interest, he was patient, kind, and full of knowledge about historical and relevant facts about the city. He even called us when we got lost, took pictures for us and helped us find everything we needed.

Izzie was a great host and added a lot of personal touch to her information she shared about the area we visited. We had a BLAST sledding!
Stacie_S, Feb 2024
This was our first time vising Colorado from Texas and we were on a girls trip celebrating a Birthday. We had an absolute blast! Our tour guide, Rico, was fantastic. Give that man a raise because not only was he knowlegeable, witty and engaging, but also a fantastic photographer. Basically, everything you want in a guide. He spent an equal amount of time with the each group on our tour, whether it was taking photos or just pointing out cool facts. All of the places we stopped at were breathtaking and sledding in Breckenridge was amazing. The only con was that Rico accepted tips only via Venmo or cash. No one in my group uses Venmo and we barely had cash. Get Cashapp and Zelle, my guy!! You're fantastic and should absolutely get all the tips you deserve!!
Response from Host, Feb 2024
Hi Stacie,
Thanks for leaving such a kind review for Rico, we're glad to hear the two of you enjoyed your day together! We'd love to have you back soon, so please don't be a stranger.

The day was fun and loved the Amphitheater and Breckenridge. Izzy was professional, sweet and knowledgeable. She really went out of way to accommodate us throughout the day and provided lots of information.

The driver made it interesting, safe…and super fun. He was very helpful and very patient. Gave us a lot of tips on where to go yo eat and what to do to size the time.
Response from Host, Jan 2024
Hi Liliana! Isn't Breckenridge a neat town? It makes us happy to hear you felt well prepared to take advantage of your time there. Safe travels home!
Dana_h, Jan 2024
Our tour guide Izzy was delightful. Lots of fun facts about Denver, mixed in with great recommendations on unique things to eat and do. The drive took us pass breathtaking views. Highly recommend sledding in Breckinridge. Izzy had a few sleds for us to use! I would recommend this trip to anyone who wants to enjoy the mountains without too much hassle.
Response from Host, Jan 2024
Hi Dana! Mountain traveling can be a bit of a hassle between weather, road conditions, and the fellow drivers on the road, so we love making vacations just a little bit easier! Thanks for leaving Izzy (and us) with such kind words! We're glad to hear you and your family were able to try out some sledding as well, what a blast!

We had Jeb as our tour guide and he did a fantastic job. He took his time to explain the history behind the sights. He was very personable and helpful with great ideas for food spots and made sure we were all safe.
My rating is based solely on the price value of the tour.
Response from Host, Dec 2023
Hi there. We appreciate you recognizing Jed and his guiding abilities, he's quite good at his job! Would you mind providing us with a little more elaboration about your perceived price value and in which areas you think we can improve?
Steph_V, Dec 2023
The tour was great and we loved all of the stops. Our tour guide was very nice and super knowledgeable. Only issue was we needed at least an hour more in Breckenridge.
Response from Host, Dec 2023
Hi Steph,
Thanks for the feedback, we're constantly looking at ways to improve the guest experience on our tours and constructive insight such as yours goes a long ways. We'd love to have you back next year to see if you can notice our investments in this product!

Jed was a great guide, he is really knowledgeable about the area. We had plenty of time at each stop for pictures or to look around. Definitely worth going
