Short tour near denver

It was a wonderful short tour. We had good time to view the red mountain and a lunch break at Golden. Next time, I would take a whole day explore if time permits.

We had a great day with our enthusiastic guide Monica. The views were spectacular at Red Rocks. Enjoyed checking out Buffalo Bills grave and museum. Stunning views from Lookout Mountain. Was disappointed not to see any bisons. Golden was a cute town where we enjoyed a delicious lunch at the Buffalo Rose. All in all a 5 out of 5!
