This was a great tour to see the highlights in a short amount of time. Rico was a GREAT guide - he was courteous, patient, had great delivery and grasp of the area and the history. We even saw Bison which was amazing. I recommended this tour to several colleagues at my conference.

Outstanding tour. Our tour guide (Rico) was a total professional. Rico was very knowledgeable and friendly. My nephew and I truly enjoyed the tour. Rico packed in a lot in the 4 hours. We visited the Red Rock Amphitheater, Lookout Mountain(viewed the Continental Divide and Buffalo Bill’s gravesite), Genesee Park(saw a bison herd up close) and the town of Golden. I highly recommend this tour for visitors wishing to see outstanding views and much more in a short period. This tour did not require any high degree of physical effort.

The Red Rocks Experience was amazing. We enjoyed the trip. Seeing the amphitheater was a fun experience. It had snowed so all of the seats were covered and that made it more beautiful! The trip up to Lookout Mountain was eventful with stunning views. Our stop in Golden was delightful. We enjoyed walking around town and exploring all of the sights. We enjoyed an Irish coffee in one of the bars to take chill off before heading back to Denver .

Red Rocks was really inspiring to see in person. I'd like to come back now in the summer to see a concert. Gerry (with a G) was very kind, personable, and fun. He also gave great recommendations for dining options in Golden. Get the big ass pizza slices.

Our tour guide was wonderful and knowledgeable. We had just enough time at each stop. It was doable with my 84 year old mother. Thoroughly enjoyed the day. It was beautiful.

This experience was truly exceptional. The small-group format made all the difference—it allowed us to visit several stops, ask plenty of questions, and really connect with our guide. Jed was incredibly knowledgeable about every area we visited, and his insights added so much richness to the day. The weather was perfect, and Red Rocks Park and Amphitheatre were absolutely breathtaking. The landscape felt like a blend of Uluru in Australia and the Grand Canyon, with a touch of the Shenandoah Valley in Virginia. The views were stunning and helped us appreciate the beauty of the region from multiple perspectives. This was my first time in Denver, and we booked several excursions to get a true sense of the city. This tour quickly became one of our favorites. We especially loved our stop in Golden—a quaint, friendly town—where we had the best pizza we have ever tasted at Atomic Cowboy, home of Fat Sully’s NY Pizza. Our waitress, Savannah, was wonderful, and the whole experience made the stop even more memorable. We thoroughly enjoyed the pace of the tour. There was just the right amount of time at each location, making it easy to explore, take photos, learn about the area, and even meet a few fellow travelers. We visited in November, which meant cooler weather but fewer crowds—absolutely worth it. I even purchased my Golden Rock Mountain t-shirt, which I will proudly wear as a reminder of an unforgettable day. Do not think twice about booking this experience—just do it. You will not regret it.

A fun half day excursion! The Red Rocks amphitheater, Lookout Mountain and little town of Golden were great. Our guide offered good facts about all the places we visited. Highly recommend.
