Private and Personalized Three Hour Morning Tour of Rocky Mountain National Park
Description
Custom tour designed for you and where your interests are. We are not on a schedule and can even adapt as we go depending upon what we find on your special day. I am a local historian and naturalist who has lived in the area for over 50 years. I consider myself an interpreter of nature adding color to the already stunning beauty you'll see. We'll concentrate on the myriad wildlife, the diverse biology, and incredible geology of the Rockies. We'll also get insight into what it might have been like for early pioneers and lodge keepers as well as indigenous people like the Arapaho, Cheyenne, and Ute. My tours are completely flexible so if you want to hike for 3 or 4 miles, great! Or if you just want sit back and relax and enjoy the view that's fine too! Either way we'll stop often to photograph and talk about the amazing sights.

Best Three-Hour Morning Custom Personalized Private Tour: This tour begins with you and your party of up to 4 people being picked up at your lodging in Estes Park or at the Estes Park Visitor Center on 500 Big Thompson Ave. If you like we’ll make a few short stops to view historical sites and look for wildlife in the Estes Valley before heading into Rocky Mountain National Park. In winter our destination is Bear Lake for breathtaking snowy scenery or maybe a short snowshoe walk in the forest!

This was a very unexpected experience, Bruce was an educational resource that provided great knowledge of not only the park, but it's history and importance to everything around it.
It was great to have someone pick us up at our hotel, tailor the tour to our interests, and who was very knowledgeable about the park.
Looking for something to do, so booked this trip the night before. Picked up at our hotel on time. Vehicle was roomy, quiet and clean. Guide, Bruce, was very knowledgeable. Took us around the park avoiding areas that another booked trip would take us. This was by far the best tours we had during our stay in Estes Park.
Thank you so much. We're honored and flattered by your compliments!
Bruce was a wonderful guide, very friendly and accommodating. He is extremely knowledgeable, sharing lots of informative descriptions about local history and natural features of the area. Highly recommend!
Thank you for saying so. We appreciate your thoughts so very much!
Amazing tour. Bruce was knowledgeable and very interesting. It was a great morning exploring RMNP
Thanks so very much!
Informative. Knowledgeable about the environment. Adaptable to all weather conditions. Bruce communicated well with us and was accommodating to our needs.
I'm so happy you appreciated our time together. Many thanks!
Bruce was a wonderful guide. He was able to tailor our experience to what my husband and I wanted to get out of our time in RMNP. He knew all the best spots and he was fantastic at scoping out all of the wildlife for us. He did not give up hope in finding a moose and we saw one! It was a wonderful day. We would recommend this tour to anyone going to RMNP. It was the perfect way to see the park with someone who had so much knowledge. Thanks again Bruce!
Thanks for appreciating me! I so love sharing this amazing place with my guests and hope you'll come back. It was a truly pleasure to have you along
Bruce was incredibly knowledgeable, personable and a true historian of the area. We had a great time and learned so much about the environment, the animals, the rockies and Estes Park history. Would recommend booking him for any visit to Estes and/or Rocky Mountain National Park.
That's so kind of you to say! It's an honor and a pleasure to do what I do. Many thanks and hope you and yours will return!
An informative and fun tour! Just what I was looking for.
Thanks Kelly! Glad that you found that we're able to show you the most in a little amount of time.
We had the best time with Bruce. He was very friendly and extremely knowledgeable about the town and the park. We learned alot and saw so many beautiful places. It was a great tour and plan to use him when we come back in the summer.
Thanks for your kind thoughts and we'll look forward to seeing you again!
