Tracey_L, Jun 2026

Great Experience

This tour was perfect for me. I was able to see the mountains and other parts without taking up my entire day. My tour guide Ira made the trip memorable and exciting. He had a great personality and was very patient with answering questions. I would recommend if you have a short trip and want to explore in a quick time.

Great day trip to RMNP

Robert is the best guide. He drove so well. Did not feel the uphill and downhill roads much. He was knowledgeable, very courteous and jovial. He made the entire experience fun. All 5 of us friends felt this. The bus was clean. Robert was ready with water bottles, Gatorade and food of choice. We all loved it.

Small Group Tour of Pikes Peak and the Garden of the Gods from Denver

Jeffery_S, Jun 2026

It was a great trip

It is 8 hours but not overly strenuous. Walking around Garden of the Gods is easy, no hiking at all. Manitou Springs can be busy (we were there on a Thursday). You won’t really have time to look around if you get a sit down meal. Maybe consider bringing subs, or something, instead. Pike’s Peak was great. It’s a long drive up but the scenery is worth it! Drink, drink, drink your water and move slowly at the peak if you aren’t used to thin air.

Brian was awesome!

It was a fantastic tour! Brian was funny and informative and kept us wrapt throughout the whole tour. We’d never really toured Denver before and this was a perfect overview. Now we are looking forward to coming back and checking out all the great things we saw, probably starting with one of the longer tours. Brian had just the right balance between funny stories and great history. We booked this last minute and glad we did. This tour is 100% worth it.

Red Rocks tour through Viator! The best

My sisters and I took the tour yesterday to the red rocks and Buffalo Bill trip my sister from North Carolina my sister from Texas and Me from Ohio. We had the best time ever. Gable was wonderful. We played karaoke he asked about us. We just had a great time I would recommend it for anybody. It was just beautiful and Rod Stewart had canceled his concert in the amphitheater so we were able to go through there as well. I have a broken foot and everybody at Vitar has been so kind. I called to verify that I could still come. We had made our plans months in advance and then the week before our trip. I broke my left foot. Everybody was so kind. They said yes come ahead. We will take care of all of you. What a wonderful adventure! The tour company was Aspire Tours

Now we know. This tour was the perfect hassle-free way to experience the highlights of Denver and Red Rocks. Highly recommended.

Robert was a fantastic...

Robert was a fantastic guide, telling us tons of stories of Denver and the history of Pikes Peak and Garden of the Gods. The provided picnic on the side of Pikes Peak was a wonderful respite. Brand new comfy vans for transportation and plenty of time to explore each area on our own, including visitor centers, gift shops and restroom breaks. 10/10!

Garden of the Gods and Pike's Peak

This was an incredible day from start to finish. Our driver Jason was very knowledgeable about the area and kept us entertained with stories, jokes and music throughout the trip! We loved the train ride on the cog railway up to Pike's Peak. Our time at Pike's Peak wasn't as long as we would have liked, but it was still amazing seeing the world from that vantage point. We had the good luck of the weather being absolutely perfect with miles of visibility from the top! The Garden of the Gods was really something to see as well. I would highly recommend this tour and I hope you get Jason as your driver!

The tour allows you to see and experience more than if you drove yourself

A great day that exceeded our expectations. Not only did we get to view all the sites of the Rocky Mountains, but our tour guide Gabel, stopped for unique opportunities to see wildlife. We got to see almost every animal large and small, including multiple Moose sitings. Our tour guides personality allowed the rides between the city and the mountains to be memorable as well. A great day.
