“Wonderful birding experience - We had a wonderful time birding with Ryan in late September in the Denver area. Based on our target list, Ryan was able to customize our outings to help us find many birds of interest. We hiked along beautiful trails in the mountains, visited Rocky Mountain National Park, and Pawnee National Grassland. Ryan’s knowledge and enthusiasm regarding the habitats and birds in the area added to an outstanding learning experience. We found Ryan friendly, flexible, attentive, and just fun to be around. We highly recommend him and look forward to seeing him again next year.” - Reviewed on 2024-11-09

Brandon was so accommodating and knowledgeable about all aspects of the park from how the glaciers led to the terrains we see today to the elks and pikas in the park. I booked this the day after Christmas and happened to be the only one; still, Brandon took me to see all parts of the park and even spent 1 hr over the scheduled time to make sure I got the full experience.” - Reviewed on 2024-12-28
