A great way to see park highlights if you don’t have time to explore on your own! Our tour guide, Jerry, was very knowledgeable about the area and its history. So much beauty! We got lucky and saw two moose!
Pickup and drop off were on time. The van was clean. The guide was very knowledgable, helpful and kind. The tour was perfect in taking us to all the right spots for the day trip. The packed lunch was hearty. We were never short on time or felt that more is needed.
Nat was a great guide. Very knowledgeable
This tour was great! We had plenty of rest stops and bathroom breaks. Great scenery, engagement, and care. Our tour guide Nick was great and very customer service oriented.
It’s a great way to visit the park especially if you are short on time while visiting. I live in Denver and it was a great day with a friend leaving the driving to someone else.
Overall, I enjoyed the full-day tour. Sights were beautiful and pace of the tour was very well managed by Jason. Could have skipped the Stanley Hotel, but others wanted to see it. Lunch was delicious - great to have it included, and best I’ve had on a tour. Thank you! Van was very comfortable with 9 people (although it would have felt less so if full) and Jason is an excellent and safe driver. He also has a lot of great information to share as well as fun music selections throughout the day. The only disappointment was that two people in our otherwise quiet group took away from the experience. They were quite loud (and told story after story in response to what Jason was sharing) that my husband and I eventually put in our headphones for a break. It’s okay for there to be quiet time during the van ride, especially during a busy full-day tour and on the trip back. Other than the incessant talk of two guests, this tour was excellent.
The scenery and our guide Jason made this an amazing trip! The weather was great, the scenery was breathtaking. We saw wildlife and heard some crazy stories and well-timed music from Jason.
The tour was the best ever. The guide was great - knowledgeable,funny, and kind. The sights were just breathtaking. Non-stop activity for 7 hours. This is just an unforgettable fun and inspiring experience
Myself, my husband and our kids (17 and 21) had a great time with our tour guide, Rico. He was an absolute wealth of knowledge and kept things fun and upbeat. We made lots of stops in picturesque places and had some great animal sightings!!!! We’re so glad we booked this tour. Would definitely recommend it to anyone
Amazing views and a great opportunity to see wildlife up close. Our guide Jerry S. was very friendly and knowledgeable. Highly recommend this tour!
