Amazing day trip from Denver to do some hiking in the beautiful Rocky Mountain National Park!
Jed was an incredible guide - so knowledgeable about the area (he modified the route to be in a section of the national park where we would be more protected from the expected rainfall), and shared interesting info about the animals and plants we came across.

I had an amazing experience. We had great weather and an awesome guide - Ty. He was super knowledgeable and kept us at a good pace. There was a nice sandwich with chips and cookies for lunch and all the stops we made along the way were very pleasant. Highly recommend for anyone looking to explore the Rocky Mountains.

Joshua was our guide and super nice and very knowledgeable. I love guided tours because I really enjoy knowledge they can impart and he had the opportunity to do so on the ride there. Van was very clean. The stop in Lyons for coffee and their kouign amann pastries were sooo good! I enjoy hiking. I’m no expert, though. I’m glad they provided the spikes because even with them on it was slippery due to all of the snow. It was challenging for me due to the altitude but well worth it! Amazing scenery. Lunch was windy but delicious. I would love to go back and hike there when the snow has melted.

I signed up for hiking tour, but it was canceled due to lack of participation and I was offered sightseeing tour instead. It was great, thanks to good work of tour guide Dillan.

A really nice hiking tour. The hike was challenging but very doable. Kyle is an awesome guide. Very happy I went.
Response from Host, Nov 2023
Hello! Thank you for leaving Kyle with such a kind note! We'd love to have you back sometime soon!
Milos_Z, Nov 2023
As this tour Was cancelled (I was probably the only one on it) I got a substitute “Rocky Mountains National Park Tour”. That one was great as well. Not much hiking, rather sightseeing by car. However our guide Kyle included also a very short hike to the rocks next to a waterfall. I really appreciated that. Kyle is also very knowledgeable regarding local history and funny stories. I really enjoyed the tour. I hope that next time I’ll be more lucky and we will hike together. Thank you Kyle.
Response from Host, Nov 2023
Hi Milos! We hate being the bearers of bad news, so it wasn't fun for us to have to cancel our hike due to lack of sign ups. That being said, we're really happy to hear you were still able to explore and experience the beauty of Rocky Mountain National Park!
Connor_M, Nov 2023
So I’m a Floridian. This definitely put me to work coupled with the high altitude adjustment. Our guide, Jed, was super sick and beyond knowledgeable. He was thorough on every question and went into great detail about the wildlife, history, culture and much more. I’d recommend him for any hike! He also did a great job connecting with the group and making sure no one felt left out.
Response from Host, Nov 2023
Hi Connor! Kudos to you for challenging yourself, it sounds like you found it well rewarding! We'd love to have you back out with us soon, so please don't be a stranger!

Response from Host, Nov 2023
