Great Trip - Had a great morning with Jerry. We were looking for something in the mountains but without taking all day long, so this was a great option. We saw some wildlife, snow and Ice - It's nearly June and we are from Florida! Great views, insight and company.

Amazing Tour!!! - I was in town for a conference and am so glad I took the time to do this half-day tour. Aaron "A A RON" was simply amazing. He is extremely knowledgeable about Denver's geography and the world in general. We had a great time with our group. I do not believe my tour would have been as enjoyable without Aaron. Thank you for the laughs, for sharing your knowledge, and for recommending local restaurants. I tried the chapulines from La Diabla Pozole y Mezcal! :-)

My tour guide was... - My tour guide was wonderful and full of fun facts. Scenery was breathtaking and very picturesque. Would definitely recommend for anyone wanting to see the gorgeous rocky mountains and echo lake with the convenience of riding in a vehicle with a few stops and shirt time to walk around and explore.

Good Value for the Price. I wish the time Outside was Longer - Good value for your money! Only downside is that you spend ample time driving. Our tour guide Sara was phenomenal (ask her about trees) . She did every she could to make the trip splendid. She was very knowledgeable, funny and receptive of questions and answers. The views were stunning and the trio was very enjoyable. The only downside is we had maybe a total of 60 minutes outside of the van of the 4 hours as we had to drive from location to location. This was fine for my kiddo that was under ten because it allowed for her to rest. Nevertheless, unless you have a young participant a full day tour with more time to explore may be better suited . Bottom money; I did enjoy my tour!

Could be better - Our tourguide seemed unenthusiastic during the tour, he also forgot to bring his mic so I could barely hear anything he said from the back of the van. The tour felt rushed and due to the lack of enthusiasm I wasn't really enjoying the experience. It was a good opportunity to explore the surrounding Rocky Mountain areas on a short time though.
