First Class Luxury accomodations and Roof that can close with unpredictable weather. - From booking to Goodbye, everything was wonderful. We were a family group of 7 ranging in ages 22 - 83. Brian was our safe driver and knowledgeable guide. We were treated with first class and beyond expected service. After boarding the luxury customized vehicle, he told us to help ourselves to hot and cold drinks, many different snacks, blankets, and binoculars! The retractable glass roof is so cool, and we were extremely happy it could be closed when we neared the top of the mountain and it started sleeting and raining and was 35 degrees. At the summit, as we were sitting sipping our hot chocolate, an open air 4x4 jeep tour filled with soaking wet shivering adults pulled up next to us. I was so grateful our hour drive back down the mountain would be in a gorgeous warm glass domed luxury craft. I highly recommend Purple Points Tour Company.

Best Trip to Trail Ridge Road with amazing views - Brian is superb in his work, friendly, respectful towards guests and the views that he showed on our way was amazing. He told us about the history of Rocky Mountains to showed us some amazing wildlife and he captured some really nice photos (he is a really good photographer). The snacks too were there and the open bus was the highlight of enjoying views while heading towards Trail Ridge Road. I highly highly recommend people to avail his tour.
