Fun/informative tour - Bruce gave us so much information. It was interesting. Well worth the money for us. I think we got to see all the best views when in a vehicle. It was so nice not to worry about the driving.

Wonderful tour of RMNP - Bruce was very knowledgeable and kind about our age and little dog. He found our parking spot rather than insisting that we find his.

Outstanding Tour of the RMNP and Estes Park. - Met us right on time, great communication. Very comfortable vehicle and plenty of room as we moved around a few historical sights in town and then ventured into the park. Bruce was very knowledgeable of the history of the park which increased the value of the tour. He showed us everything from geology to animals, to the hot spots of the park. He never rushed, asked us if there was anything specific we wanted to see or know. We highly recommend Tour Estes Park.

Two Thumbs up. Way up! - My wife and I were very glad we took this private tour. I echo the many well-deserved comments from others and recommended Bruce to you. He was a terrific guide who not only knows the Park--its history, a bit about its future direction, the animals, and the fauna- he shares all of that with a genuine enthusiasm and caring for the Park.

Great tour! - Bruce was very knowledgeable and we really enjoyed our tour with him. We learned a lot about the land and the wildlife. We were also able to get tips from him to navigate the rest of our trip to RMNP on our own time. Highly recommend Bruce!

Awesome informative tour! - This was a fantastic tour! Bruce is very friendly and knowledgeable of the area! We enjoyed seeing wildlife and learning all about the different things in the park! Bruce told us he thought we’d enjoy taking the one way dirt road across to Grand Lake where we are staying & boy was he right! It was really a fun drive! We highly recommend this tour—Bruce is the best!!

So Glad We Booked Bruce’s Tour! - Having Bruce lead us through the park was such a good decision! We learned so much and got to enjoy the vistas. He is so knowledgeable and personable and offered us excellent suggestions for time on our own. Thank you, Bruce, for making our trip more memorable and meaningful!

Refund for Cancellation - I reserved the Three Hour Afternoon Tour of RNP with Bruce when we visited the area in late July, 2024. We were staying in Grand Lake for a family reunion and, once there, I realized it was too far to drive to Estes Park from where we were for an afternoon tour of the Park. I cancelled the tour with Bruce and, true to his word, he refunded the $149 per person I paid for four of us to go on his tour. Thank you, Bruce. We will definitely reschedule with you when we are next in Estes Park.
