Top Tour to the Top of Park! - Our guide Brad was awesome, he drove our car through the park pulling over to key places we could get out and enjoy. We loved that we would get to the top of the park where there was snow on the ground.
Brad is a wealth of interesting facts and stories about the park! He took photos of our group and made great recommendations for other things to do on our stay.
Highly recommend!

Top of the Park Top Tour! - Great way to see the top of the park! We enjoyed having Brad drive our car through the park and pull over at places that we could explore.
He shared great stories and was generous in taking photos of our group. Reaching the where we got to throw snowballs in June!
Brad communicated with us prior and meeting up with him at Coffee on the Rock was perfect. I highly recommend doing this tour first, then the next day go back on your own to hike & explore.

The Best Tour Guide in Estes Park - Our guide, Brad, was fantastic. He was knowledgeable, personable, and kind. He rode with us for 1/2 day in our vehicle and shared his knowledge of Rocky Mtn Nat’l Park and Estes Park. We learned so much from him and through our experience. He helped us take great photographs of what we saw. I would love to go back and spend a whole day with him! His service was well-worth the money and I highly recommend booking a tour with him, especially if this is a first time visit to RMNP!

Let Brad drive and just enjoy the wonders of RMNP! - Our tour guide Brad made the trip so interesting with his stories and his own personal photography. We loved having him do the driving so we could just enjoy the spectacular views! We have been to RMNP before but this tour really enhanced the visit this time.

Absolutely Phenomenal; Best Tour Guide Ever - We had Mike as our guide and he was amazing! He shared so much knowledge with us and showed us some of the absolutely most beautiful parts of the Rocky Mountain National Park. We can’t wait to go to the Park again and bring the kids. We will likely call them just to see where the animals might most likely be so we don’t have to search all over. 😁

Best tour guide ever - This was the best tour we ever had of Rocky Mountain National Park. Our tour guide, Mike, was so knowledgeable and was able to point out things that we would never have seen ourselves if we had not had him along to guide us. Mike went out of his way to make sure that we didn’t miss something, if he saw it and we didn’t he would go back and reroute so we would see it. Highly recommend this tour to everyone.

So glad we booked this tour!!! - We had been to Rocky Mountain National Park several times, but always drove ourself. It was so nice to have Mike drive our vehicle and enlighten us on the history of the park. Also went up the mountain on the dirt road that we did not even know existed. We were fortunate enough to see a bear, elk, deer and a fox. My husband and I both enjoyed this tour and highly recommend it! I also learned some photo tips from Mike. Looking forward to seeing the pictures he took that day.
