We had an absolutely fantastic time on the Colorado Sightseer Tour with Alex as our guide. From start to finish, everything was organized with incredible precision and ran perfectly on schedule. Alex was knowledgeable, engaging, and provided outstanding information about the area, wildlife, and Rocky Mountain National Park. The ride was smooth and comfortable, making the full-day experience relaxing and enjoyable. The included lunch was delicious, with the only minor exception being one soggy tuna sandwich, which was likely just an unavoidable issue from the sandwich shop rather than anything related to the tour itself. One of the highlights was seeing so much wildlife, including a moose, which was an unforgettable experience! If you're visiting Colorado and want to experience the beauty of Rocky Mountain National Park without the stress of planning or driving, I highly recommend this full-day tour. It was one of the highlights of our trip! read more

Everything was amazing! We had the best time on the Rocky Mountain National Park Tour. Our tour guide Will was so knowledgeable, personable and very funny. My goal was to see a moose and I saw a mama moose with 2 babies. The picnic lunch provided was delish. It started to rain in Estes Park and Will went looking for us to give us umbrellas. Now that is what I call service! This tour was worth every penny! I can't wait to do another trip with Will. read more

The day started at union station and for awhile did not know if the guide was going to show up. When time came, two guides popped out, split people into two group and led us to the van. PRO TIP: try avoiding the most back row if you have long legs or any stress with mobility. Because once you sit there, the seat is assigned and you will have to deal with being cramped in a tighter space. And you basically are always the last one to get off. This was one of the biggest cons. Moving on, the tour itself was great. We stopped by a cafe on the way to and back, for food and bathroom breaks, and pretty soon, the van took us to the Rocky Mountain with beautiful views and even saw many wildlife - the big horn sheep, elk, deer (i think), and, not to forget, smaller animals like birds, mouse, and chipmunks, but no moose spotted. Nonetheless, the breathtaking view of the Rockies is certainly worth the journey. The guide was very knowledgeable about trees and shared many stories about the places and tips for visiting Denver in general! She also took us to a few Native American owed stores that featured indigenous art that were very cool to see. One thing to note is that I think the Colorado Sightseer, the tour company, had listed at least two slightly different itineraries, and I might have been sent to the one I did not pick. I noticed because I intentionally picked the tour with visits to two visitor centers, vs the one I went on only took us to Beaver Meadows. Not a big deal bc I did get still get my stamp, and the tour used most of the day's time efficiently by visiting many attractions. But this might be something you want to make sure if the stops matter a lot to you. Nonetheless, with a group tour, it is understandable and expected for the itinerary to potentially change. For instance, the day I went, the tour guide actually too us to visit places in different order to avoid crowds. Another thing to really appreciate is that the tour provided some snacks, extra gloves/beanies, which were really a lifesaver in the cold mountains. I know I was not fully prepared for it and so glad I could borrower some! read more

Christine was amazing. The tour to Red Rocks, Evergreen and Echo Lake was incredible. Her knowledge and sense of humor made the tour a lot of fun. The length of the tour was perfect as well as the group size. The van was very comfortable. You gotta do the tour. We would definitely do it again. Dennis and Sue read more

Will was THE BEST. Such a great way to see this amazing state. As a solo traveler, I felt so included and part of the team. The whole day is well paced and lunch was DELICIOUS. Seriously, get the tuna, you won't regret it! read more

Joined the Rocky Mountains National Park full day tour, and had an incredible experience! Christine was our tour guide, and was very knowledgeable about the park and its wildlife. There were dozens of excellent photo opportunities, and we visited many of the parks most famous landmarks. We had the pleasure of seeing dozens of elk, mule deer, marmots, and even a pika! Sandwiches were provided for lunch, as well as plenty of water and snacks throughout the day.

We just experienced the 10 hour Rocky Mountain National Park Summer Tour this weekend and it was so good! Both my mother and I have physical limitations, but we really wanted to spend time in RMNP. This was the perfect tour for us. We got to spend all day in the park without having to walk far. We saw the most famous views and even got to eat a picnic near the Colorado River. I've never taken a tour of a national park before and I was uncertain if I would enjoy the experience. I'm used to packing an ice chest and planning my own itineraries and easy hikes. Being able to just sit back and relax and let someone else do the planning and the driving was amazing. I would take this tour again! read more

Our trip was truly BEYOND AMAZING! I planned this Colorado adventure as a graduation gift for my daughter, who just earned her bachelor's degree, and this tour ended up being one of the absolute BEST decisions we made. It was the highlight of our entire trip. I've taken a tour before with another company, and it was fine... but this one? This one completely blew it out of the water. It didn't just meet expectation...it shattered them! I loved that it wasn't hours of boring driving. Instead, it was nonstop stunning views, fun stops, and fascinating information that kept us engaged the entire time. Even the drives felt magical because of the scenery and all the stories and history we learned along the way. And then there was Hans, our tour guide. We couldn't have asked for anyone better. He made the experience unforgettable. His energy was fun and positive, his humor was spot-on, and he had this natural way of connecting with everyone that instantly made the whole group feel comfortable. He kept the day exciting without ever feeling overwhelming, and we appreciated that so much. We visited so many breathtaking places like the Continental Divide, Sapphire Point, Breckenridge, and Red Rocks Amphitheatre, each one more beautiful than the last. Sharing these moments with my daughter made it even more special. It's a trip neither of us will ever forget. I honestly cannot say enough amazing things about this tour and about Hans. They made our mother-daughter celebration truly unforgettable. We will absolutely be booking again, next time with the entire family in tow! read more

Our guide Alex was on time at every pick up point. He was very knowledgeable and provided good information throughout the day about places we are visiting. The stops could have been longer but with the many stops we did and all the driving he did, suffice it to say, we covered many areas so a well satisfied customer. Many thanks to Alex for his patience and attention to details! read more

Absolutely loved this tour! Our guide was excellent; very accommodating, very patient, very knowledgeable, and just an all-around good guy! We had the most amazing time; beautiful scenery; very careful driving. Very convenient booking; no problem getting in touch with the company to ask questions before booking; was an 8-hour tour and worth every penny paid for the tour. Note, the tour included a stop in the City of Lyons, the Rocky Mountain National Park and a "pic-nic" lunch. We stopped at a rest stop along the way and had a nice time setting up in a shaded pavilion to partake in our meal. We were even fortunate enough to see a herd of elk! Yay! On the way back, we stopped at the Stanley Hotel (featured in the movie "The Shining"). We will definitely book this tour company again when we are back in the area; we will take a different tour next time to enjoy other sights. read more

This was our first trip to Denver. We stopped at the visitor center in Union Station and asked about excursions to the mountains and found information on your tours. We went on the Rocky Mountain National Park trip yesterday. It was awesome. Our tour guide Alex was great! He was friendly, shared a lot of information and gave us a wonderful experience...it was a "bluebird day" Thank you! read more

The tour with Colorado sightseer is definitely a must! The tour was extremely well organized. We visited 6 sights and we never felt rushed as we had adequate time to visit each site. Our tour guide, Ben, also had backup plans due to weather as it rained a little so we had our lunch in a beautiful covered spot. Honestly I would have never known where to go if i hadn't booked that tour. There are so much places to see and experience. The mountains and nature are gorgeous and Ben knew exactly where to go! He was very entertaining and kept us engaged with historic details about each area. We had so much fun at the Stanley hotel and its spooky historic feel! Lunch was simple but fresh and great from a local bakery at Lyons. I would definitely do this trip again and strongly recommend it for anyone who is visiting Denver/Colorado for the first time! read more

My husband and I booked the half-day tour to visit Red Rocks, Echo Lake and Evergreen (5-hour tour). There's an 8:15am tour or 12:15pm tour, but I'm so glad we booked the 8:15am tour because I heard traffic is terrible later in the day. Our tour guide Alex was awesome. He was incredibly friendly, funny and full of historical Denver knowledge! We enjoyed the ride between each stop, and we absolutely loved being able to wander each location on our own. Alex always checked up on us to make sure we were comfortable and didn't get lost. 40 minutes at each stop was just enough time to take in the breath-taking views of Red Rocks, Echo Lake and Evergreen. Highly recommend the 8:15am tour! read more

We had a great 1/2 day tour with our tour guide Phil. The tour was well organized while allowing personal time to explore each destination. The three stops our our tour: Red Rock, Evergreen and Echo Lake were so different and beautiful locations. The drives between each stop were relatively short and gave us time in the van to talk and Phil gave some interesting facts about the area. We spotted some wildlife but the tour is more about the locations. I'd recommend to anyone visiting Denver area. read more

Me and the SO flew in from Pittsburgh to watch the Steelers beat the Broncos at Empower field and decided to take the tour and Monday and return home Tues. What a Monday well spent! Our guide was Hans and he was absolutely fantastic. He was full of CO knowledge, humor, as well as kindness, ensuring everyone was enjoying the trip. Rocky Mountain National Park is stunning. We saw the beautiful sandstone, waterfalls, the Tundra, Pikas, Mule Deer, Stellar Jay's and more. We had plenty of time to take small walks at our stops and take in the views. We got to observe a small herd of elk during one of the stops. There is also the opportunity to shop a little and grab a small bite or hot/ cold beverages. The town of Estes is charming and seeing The Stanley Hotel was a bucket list item for me! A great tour with a great guide made for a great Monday. Money and time well spent during our short trip to the beautiful state of Colorado. read more

This was our second tour with Colorado Sightseer & we had a blast! Christin teaches you so much about Colorado as you travel. The Mt Blue Sky tour had breathtaking views, lots of wildlife & she made sure we saw it all. On the way back to Denver we went through a canyon that was nearly as special as Mt Blue Sky. Summit Lake is very special...the peace & solitude of the place was surprising & probably my favorite thing on the tour. I can't say enough wonderful things about this company-top notch customer service & the love they have for what they do is palpable. Colorado Sightseer is the only tour group I'll ever consider when we come to this beautiful state! read more

She was friendly, polite, and had endless information to share with us during the drive.

I took a half day tour with Kristen from Colorado Sightseer Tours on Superbowl Sunday 2/13. They offer two departure times and I chose the 8:15a slot so I could have the rest of the day for other activities. First, Kristen met the tour group at the flagpole directly in front of Union Station. She was on time, friendly and energetic from the start. There were 7 of us taking the tour that day and Kristen started by having us introduce ourselves and then the tour was underway. As soon as we left downtown Denver and I could see the landscape changing, I knew I had picked the right tour. Kristen was extremely knowledgable and engaging the entire time as she took us through the town of Morrison, Red Rock Amphitheater, Echo Lake and Evergreen. She offered to take pics so if you are a solo traveler like myself, dont worry about getting your content! The ride was super comfy and there was plenty of room for everyone without feeling crowded. This was my first visit to Denver and I absolutely recommend this small, family business if you want an informed and engaging intro to the city. Worth every penny (I paid $79) through tripadvisor. read more

My boyfriend and I decided to go on the Red Rocks, Evergreen, and Echo Lake Tour, and we had an amazing experience. Although this was not our first choice because we wanted to do a sold out Rocky Mountain tour, we were pleasantly surprised and happy by how breathtaking the views were. The pickup was very convenient because our tour guide Scott picked us up at Union Station. We chose to do the morning tour, so we all met may 8:15am, and it was a 5 hour half day tour. There was an option to go on the same tour in the afternoon around 12:15. Scott was extremely nice and informative, and he was helpful with assuring that our small group of 11 people were healthy and hydrated. He brought snacks and a large cooler of water so that we could refill when we needed to, and he was also a great photographer for all of us! The tour we went on was a stop and go tour, and though we drove a long time with him, he gave us a specific time to be back at the van at each destination so that we could all enjoy the beautiful scenery on our own, as well as with the full group. I would definitely take a tour with Colorado Sightseer again, and I am so happy that my first experience in the mountains happened to be with this company. read more

We decided on a last-minute Foothills tour and it was perfection! A great way to get a taste of city (leaves downtown Denver Union Station with cool restaurants and shops), mountains (foothills beauty of trees, wildlife-Buffalo and bunnies!, and scenic rock formations of Red Rocks) and small-town (historic mining town of Golden...rich history, gorgeous setting...you can imagine panning for gold at its bubbling mountainous river!). Family-owned company with wonderful Colorado wisdom! tip: book through them for ease, personable-ness, and lower rate! we will definitely be booking more tours in the future. read more

Went with Colorado sightseer to Rocky National park on the summer tour which was about 10hrs long. I was having difficulty booking directly thru their site so I went thru Viator, which I don't recommend they are more expensive. Anywho we met up at 815 at union station by the flag pole, trust me you can't miss it. I would recommend Uber to the union station doesn't seem like there's much parking. There are bfast spots to eat around union station "snooze" is delicious they have pancake flights. They also have farmer markets sometimes. I believe our tour guides name was Richard frost I really hope I got it right because he was AMAZING!!!! He gave us fun facts along the way and made plenty of stops for us to sight see. We saw lots of animals along the way. Let's not forget the lunch was delicious. He picked a small local market in a town on our way to the rocky's where they make their own bread. They give you options when you book the tour, veggie, turkey, tuna, ham you can't go wrong plus they give you fresh baked cookies. He had a cooler in order to be able to fill your bottles. The van was spacious and comfortable. The park was incredible!!!! It's much better to take a tour vs driving. He knew all the spots and it gives you time to take the view in. I loved it and will book with them again if in Colorado again!!!! We also stopped by Estes park to do some shopping and grab a bite to eat, also stopped at Stanley hotel for some cherry pie it's a must!! read more

We had a fantastic experience touring with The Colorado Sightseer. I purchased my tour through Groupon for "The Ultimate Mountain Tour to Breckenridge". It was two tickets for my friend and I traveling to Denver. I'm really glad the other Groupon(s) I was looking at before didn't work out because I felt like I got more bang for my buck with this one. The tour is about 8 hours total, including travel time, and we saw some amazing sights! Whereas the other tours seemed to only be maybe 4 hours and didn't go to Breckenridge. Our tour guide, Alex, was awesome! He had great energy and was so knowledgeable. Another gentleman was dropping facts along with him that I think is joining the Colorado Sightseer team and shadowing. The lady over the team/company was also super friendly and supportive. She helped check us in at the meeting point, gave us each warm greetings and even offered to take my friend and I's photo at the Red Rock Amphitheater. She was driving one of the other tour vans. A representative from the company called the day before to confirm our meeting point for the morning. I guess maybe there were others meeting at a different location. I only knew about Union Station. In either case, I certainly appreciate the call. We went on a Monday morning. We met at Union Station around 8-8:15am, where you will likely find a number of other groups meeting for tours. Some will be with the same touring company but just a different tour. Ours was Tour #3. We rode in a nice 12-15 passenger van, and felt confident that the tour guide, also driver, was experienced and equipped for both navigating the windy mountains as well as nature and any potential wildlife. He shared many tips throughout the drive. We stopped at Georgetown Visitor Center, Loveland Pass, Sapphire Point (gorgeous) and eventually ended up in Breckenridge where we spent about 2 hours to do as we pleased. There's plenty there to see and do! I'd recommend The Colorado Sightseer to anyone visiting Denver who wants a day trip to Breckenridge or a comprehensive glimpse of the Colorado mountains, including Red Rock, but may not want to rent a car or do the drive themselves. Even if you're a local and you just want to actually enjoy the view rather than drive, check them out! We were back to Union Station by like 3:30pm that afternoon. The time felt perfect for a day trip - not too short and not too long. I'd certainly book with this company again! read more

I did the half day to Red Rock, Evergreen and Echo Lake. Meeting the tour guide, Will, was pretty straight forward (we met at designated spot). Will was pretty easy going throughout the tour. He made sure we were comfortable (for example, he would raise/lower A/C as needed). He had such passion and knowledge and kept us all entertained. When it got to Echo Lake, it was actually frozen. Will stepped onto the frozen lake first to show us that it was safe and I had a great time walking on it. To be honest, I just needed a ride to Red Rock and saw that I could do it through this tour. But I was surprised how awesome the other sites were and glad I did this tour after all. I throughly enjoyed this and recommend it to others! Oh, and since I went alone, I had Will take a lot of pics of me for me. And he takes GREAT pictures! read more

This was a wonderful way to see the mountains ( and more) when visiting Colorado! Starting out at Union station we met up with Emily and she was bubbly and full of energy, we all got in the bus and headed to red rock, the ride there she talked and told us some history about the area. once we got there, wow it's beautiful and you just don't know the scope of how big it is till your standing in it! Next stop Echo lake, a smooth mountain lake with evergreen trees all around, we did the hike around the lake and met at a gift shop lodge, we wanted to buy everything! lol! Last stop is the town of Evergreen, we went to the old town center with little gift shops and sandwich places and walked around, wonderful! We could have stayed another 2 hrs, but alas the tour was ending! Emily put on a Denver playlist for the 30 min ride back to union station, it was great, really enjoyed, being from out of town it's great to have someone else shuffle you around, no fear of missing a turn or getting lost! read more

I booked the Red Rock/Echo Lake/Evergreen half day tour and had Emily as our tour guide. Emily was super energetic, knowledgeable, and a fun tour guide who made the whole experience engaging. She provided lots of great and interesting facts about Denver and even Colorado in general. If you have any questions, she is more than happy to answer. What I liked about her as a tour guide as well was ensuring not to drive too fast or bumpy for others in the back. She goes at a good speed that even people who are prone to motion sickness won't get sick. She also gave very detailed directions of how to take the optional trail walk around the lake and where to meet up. Emily focuses on safety throughout the tour so I knew we were in good hands. Meet up spot is right outside the Union Station/Crawford Hotel. They make sure to take roll so be sure to be prompt. There are also restrooms inside the station to use prior to your tour. The weather can be unpredictable so be sure to be prepared for light rain and cooler weather- the easiest way to pack is by layers (t-shirt, fleece jacket, and light rain jacket). Its warmer around Red Rock but cools down around Echo Lake. The tour took about 5 1/2 hours as you spend at least 40 minutes at each stop. If you're doing an afternoon tour and have a dinner reservation, I'd recommend booking it out later in the evening! read more

My partner and I took a sightseeing tour with "Colorado Sighteer" in late September. Due to COVID-19, obviously you all know that the normalcy in the past has been slightly altered, to say the least! However, our trip to Colorado was worth the risk and we had a very positive experience with what Will, the tour guide, showed us places that both of us saw for the very first time. We booked the tour through "Visit a City" app, which gave us options of tours and activists that we might be interested in a certain city. We stopped by the Red Rock Amphitheater, Breckinridge, and some historic towns in between. Will was a Colorado native and I could tell his love for mountains and nature. He had a soothing voice and shared just enough information for us to absorb. It was mostly a sightseeing tour, but we were able to walk around and climb a little bit in some areas where we were dropped off. My partner and I definitely took advantage of all the minutes we were out of the vehicle and took a good amount of pictures. Every activity we did was allowed generous time, so we didn't feel rushed at all. Other passengers who took the tour with us together were very nice and personable. Anyway, this tour was a great birthday gift to myself! In terms of the COVID-19 guidelines and protocols, the vehicle was sanitized prior to picking up the passengers, the hand sanitizer was offered at our disposal, all guests were asked to keep the masks on while inside the van. As we all know, masks are our best friends now, so embrace them and wear them well. Although it's categorized as a sightseeing tour, we would recommend wearing a pair of hiking boots to prevent falling from rocks or sliding off from slippery paths. I enjoyed every bit of the tour. I appreciated that "Colorado Sightseer" was able to continue to operate their business during this pandemic. read more

They have the best half-day tour in Denver! Not only did Red Rocks, our tour guide Christin rocks too! She really took care of the entire group. She changed our itinerary due to weather conditions. Not only did we escape the rain, we got an unexpected tour to the mining town of Idaho Springs. Christin has an encyclopedic knowledge of flora, fauna, geology and the rich history of Colorado. We saw wild life and took a lovely trail by the beautiful Echo Lake. We ended the day at the Red Rocks Amphitheater - absolutely amazing! We give this Half Day Mountain Tour and the Colorado Sightseer the highest recommendation! It makes such a big difference to support local small business because they care and make sure that you are enjoying your tour! read more
