My friend and I did the Rocky Mountain National Park day tour and were SO SO pleased. We got super lucky since 6 people on our tour cancelled last minute and we basically had a private tour! It was just 4 of us and our guide, Robert. Robert was so friendly, full of stories, and very funny! The tour is in a 14 seater Mercedes sprinter van. Very spacious and he has a microphone to narrate / talk during the ride. Every part of the experience was amazing. We were very nervous about the elevation but it wasn’t an issue at all! Every stop was very beautiful and we had ample time to explore each. Cannot recommend this tour enough!

Mark was an incredible guide for our group! He was very attentive and ensured everyone in our group was content and taken care of. He had lunch for us, had spare jackets for Pikes Peak, and even was prepared for altitude sickness by having barf bags on board our vehicle. Mark also talked to everyone and took photos for everyone in our group to make sure we had the best experience possible! Would highly recommend to anyone!

This tour was awesome! So glad I decided to do it. Brian was my groups tour guide and he kept things fun but he also knew so much and was willing to share and answer all the groups questions. I did the Rocky Mountain park tour and it’s beyond worth it! The scenery alone made the entire trip! We got to see some elk while we were out too. The provided lunch was good. The trip lasts the 8.5hrs which felt like ample time and I never felt like we were rushed from site to site. Highly recommend doing this tour! It was cheaper than me renting a car and getting into the park myself- and lunch was included on top of it. Als, the bus you ride on is very comfortable and spacious.

This tour was an amazing time. It is a day well spent and our guide, Mr. Robert, was fabulous and knowledgeable. We stopped for wonderful vistas and saw animals along the way, even a moose! I highly recommend this day trip. My only complaint is on our bus, a couple talked incessantly and had no qualms about disrupting the peace for the other 10 participants. These men chatted and cackled about nothing the entire time just to hear themselves speak like a couple of high schoolers that can’t read the room. The rudeness was overwhelming. I wish the driver had said something to them about how distracting it was for the others in the bus. He was just too professional and polite I think, which is commendable. If they left 10 seconds of silence, that was generous. It really ruined the majestic vibe of this mountain tour. If you want to talk like you are in your living room, don’t jump on a bus tour with other people and subject them to your babble. A little decorum goes a long way. Ridiculous!

Explorer Tours’ Rocky Mountain National Park trip was amazing! Brian was a terrific guide — fun and knowledgeable. We started in Estes Park with a stop at the iconic Stanley Hotel, then headed into RMNP for stunning mountain views and a peaceful lunch at Sprague Lake with Moose, Blue Jays, Mule Deer, Wild Turkeys, Pikas, birds of prey, and Yellow-bellied Marmots. Trail Ridge Road was jaw-dropping, and the whole day felt like a perfect Colorado postcard with endless mountain peaks and topography. Highly recommend!
