Great experience in the Rockies! - I can’t stop telling friends about this trip! I was in Denver for work and wanted to see the park. Bruce tailored the trip for my level of fitness and gave me the opportunity to do something I had never done. This Florida girl learned how to snowshoe. Bruce was very knowledgeable about the area and his love for nature was contagious. He also gave me great recommendations for things to do afterwards. I would do this trip over and over again.

Amazing Tour - Our family really enjoyed our tour with Bruce! He was very knowledgeable and taught us a lot on the history of Estes National Park and the Rocky Mountains. This was our favorite part of the trip. We have recommended Bruce to another family who were first time visitors to Estes Park.

Incredible views - This was a very nice tour. We went with two teens and saw awesome views and learned so much. We got to see and learn about one of the first ranches, saw the old hydraulic stop & went into the Rocky Mountains and stopped at some gorgeous sites.

Amazing tour!! 10/10!! - Bruce was so informative!! This was my friends and I's first time in Estes Park and Bruce showed us all the good spots plus telling us about all the history of Rocky Mountain National Park. He was even kind enough to take us to one of his favorite coffee shops when we woke up a little late and didn't have time to eat before the tour. He was so accommodating with what we wanted to do and what we wanted to see. You definitely cannot go wrong booking a tour with Bruce!

Beyond expectations! - Tour is well worth the time and money! We learned so much history of the park, it was a pleasure to not have to drive and stop at the best spots we wouldn’t have known to do on our own. It was a great personalized experience. I will be recommending Bruce and his tour to folks who I know will be visiting the area!

Only Saw 2 Sights in 3 Hours but Very Friendly Guide - I agree with other reviewers that Bruce is an incredibly kind guide. His self-professed speciality is the history of the town. However, our family tour was only of the park (by request) and logistics were challenging. Bruce is very knowledgeable about nature (trees, wolves, elk) but out of a 3 hour tour, we spent at least 1 hour in unnecessary lines. As a result we only went to 2 sites. He later admitted that he should have used a different park entrance which would have saved us 30 minutes since the the park had higher traffic that day. This was after I specifically told him that the purpose of spending $450 was to make to best use of the hours we had and avoid stumbling around. He had confirmed we could see more sights with him as a guide and this did not work out well.
