I live in Denver and decided to take a tour to see the foliage. I learned great information about Colorado and had a wonderful time. Our guide Jed was extremely knowledgeable and the trip ran smoothly as planned (except minor traffic on the way home - which is expected on the peak weekend).
Nancy_K, Sep 2025
Beautiful scenery as well as itinerary. As usual everything went smoothly and on time. Our tour guide Mike was the greatest. He made you feel like you were traveling with an old friend.
Rethea_W, May 2025
Did not get a chance to do it. We were very, very disappointed. The tour company canceled the tour. They suggested another tour, but it was not no where compatibility. That tour did not cover what the tour reading was either. We need a re-fund.
Response from Host, May 2025
Hi! Thank you for booking with us and sorry we could not accomodate. We do need a minimum number of passenger to run the tour. And with the weather being so unpredictable in May - the bookings were not consistent for this particular tour. We made sure to contact you a few days out so you would have enough time to book with another provider. We certainly hope you had a great experience that day with or without us. We hope to see you next time.

We had the best time. Jerry is the absolute best. He tried to make sure each person was having a good day. He was so attentive, thoughtful and just really sweet. This is a really great tour. Highly recommend.

Izzie was a great host and added a lot of personal touch to her information she shared about the area we visited. We had a BLAST sledding!
Stacie_S, Feb 2024
This was our first time vising Colorado from Texas and we were on a girls trip celebrating a Birthday. We had an absolute blast! Our tour guide, Rico, was fantastic. Give that man a raise because not only was he knowlegeable, witty and engaging, but also a fantastic photographer. Basically, everything you want in a guide. He spent an equal amount of time with the each group on our tour, whether it was taking photos or just pointing out cool facts. All of the places we stopped at were breathtaking and sledding in Breckenridge was amazing. The only con was that Rico accepted tips only via Venmo or cash. No one in my group uses Venmo and we barely had cash. Get Cashapp and Zelle, my guy!! You're fantastic and should absolutely get all the tips you deserve!!
Response from Host, Feb 2024
Hi Stacie,
Thanks for leaving such a kind review for Rico, we're glad to hear the two of you enjoyed your day together! We'd love to have you back soon, so please don't be a stranger.

The day was fun and loved the Amphitheater and Breckenridge. Izzy was professional, sweet and knowledgeable. She really went out of way to accommodate us throughout the day and provided lots of information.
Liliana_a, Jan 2024
The driver made it interesting, safe…and super fun. He was very helpful and very patient. Gave us a lot of tips on where to go yo eat and what to do to size the time.
Response from Host, Jan 2024
Hi Liliana! Isn't Breckenridge a neat town? It makes us happy to hear you felt well prepared to take advantage of your time there. Safe travels home!
Dana_h, Jan 2024
Our tour guide Izzy was delightful. Lots of fun facts about Denver, mixed in with great recommendations on unique things to eat and do. The drive took us pass breathtaking views. Highly recommend sledding in Breckinridge. Izzy had a few sleds for us to use! I would recommend this trip to anyone who wants to enjoy the mountains without too much hassle.
Response from Host, Jan 2024
Hi Dana! Mountain traveling can be a bit of a hassle between weather, road conditions, and the fellow drivers on the road, so we love making vacations just a little bit easier! Thanks for leaving Izzy (and us) with such kind words! We're glad to hear you and your family were able to try out some sledding as well, what a blast!
Anita_J, Dec 2023
We had Jeb as our tour guide and he did a fantastic job. He took his time to explain the history behind the sights. He was very personable and helpful with great ideas for food spots and made sure we were all safe.
My rating is based solely on the price value of the tour.
Response from Host, Dec 2023
Hi there. We appreciate you recognizing Jed and his guiding abilities, he's quite good at his job! Would you mind providing us with a little more elaboration about your perceived price value and in which areas you think we can improve?
Steph_V, Dec 2023
The tour was great and we loved all of the stops. Our tour guide was very nice and super knowledgeable. Only issue was we needed at least an hour more in Breckenridge.
Response from Host, Dec 2023

Steve was an Amazing tour guide, he was excellent in every way. He looked out for everyone's best interest, he was patient, kind, and full of knowledge about historical and relevant facts about the city. He even called us when we got lost, took pictures for us and helped us find everything we needed.
Response from Host, Dec 2023

Our guide Kyle was AMAZING! He was very knowledgeable about everything around us and able to answer all of our questions. He was funny and personable. We had a great time and would book again on our next trip!
Response from Host, Mar 2023
Kyle is a top notch guide! So glad to hear your group had a memorable experience with him exploring the town of Breckenridge. We’d love to take you out on another tour sometime!
Daniel_L, Feb 2023
Well worth the cost. Our tour guide Jed really was very knowledgeable about anything and everything we asked and was a complete joy to be around. Would for sure recommend to anyone I know that has not been to the area. Even when the tour was done asked us if wanted any dinner or other sight seeing recommendations while here in Denver.
Response from Host, Feb 2023
Thank you for recommending us after you took our Breckenridge tour! Jed is a wealth of knowledge and clearly that showed on your tour. Enjoy the rest of your time in Denver and see you next time!
TARA_B, Jan 2023
It was an awesome route. Kyle was great! I felt like we didn’t have a lot of time in Breckenridge, however we had a good time.
Hannah_R, Dec 2022
We loved having Kyle as a guide. He was a wealth of knowledge about the area from Denver to Breckenridge. He had all the recommendations and made sure we took full advantage of the day and all the photo opportunities. 10/10 would recommend Kyle and this company for any of your future tours in the Denver area!
Joyce_J, May 2022
Aaron was the best tour guide ever for our trip to the Rocky Mountain National Park. He shared with us the history of the Native American populations who resided in these lands and was extremely knowledgeable about the geology and the wildlife of the Rockys. Made our tour group all feel welcome and also asked us to introduce ourselves. Thank you Aaron for the memorable tour!
Britnie_N, Apr 2022
Our tour guide Steve did a fabulous job showing us the sights of the Breckenridge Explorer . He gave great information, told funny stories, and took great photos of my boyfriend and I while on the tour. Steve cared about our experience and is a great representative of Colorado. When we arrived to Breckenridge , we wanted to do the sled while everyone else wanted to do gondola. Steve didn’t hesitated and happy to take my boyfriend and I. Unfortunately, the sled slope was half melted so we ended up going back to gondola. This was an amazing day out and very entertaining. Highly recommend this tour.
Susan_S, Apr 2022
The trip was amazing from start to finish. I especially enjoyed the stop at Loveland Pass. The views were incredible. Breckinridge was enjoyable. The weather was perfect. Layer up because it can be chilly in the mountains.
BeckyGroves, Apr 2022
Our guide Jed was the absolute best and made this tour and trip fantastic! We got to see and do so much, I recommend this tour to anyone, it is well worth the $$ and if I make it back to Denver I plan on taking another tour with this company and asking for Jed, he was that good! :-)
Wendy_M, Feb 2022
The mountains are beautiful. Also great food on the trip. Our guide Kyle is very knowledgeable. I would travel with him again.
Response from Host, Feb 2022
Kyle knows a thing or two about Breckenridge, especially all the delicious food the town has to offer. Thanks for your review Wendy!
Dima_H, Feb 2022
Our tour guide, Aaronwas a wonderful helpful knowledgeable guy! He definitely adds more fun and a lot of good information to our Breckinridge trip.

Response from Host, Feb 2022
Breckenridge really does encapsulate the heart and soul of the central Rocky Mountains. Ryan is an absolute star, and I'm so happy he made your experience so memorable. Thanks for the review!

Angie_H, Jan 2022
The trip to Breckenridge is ok, but our tour guide seems a little bit tired. We asked him for the recommendation for the ski resort like rental and lesson but he said that he wasn’t there before so he didn’t know. He was honest, but not really helpful. We was in the town around 12:00 and the skiing lesson was around 12:30 but we didn’t know so we missed it.
Response from Host, Jan 2022
Hi Angie,
I apologize for the miscommunication but it appears you may have been confused when booking this tour. We do not accommodate skiing on this tour and make sure all of our advertisements reflect as much. Breckenridge does have a ski resort, yes, but it is also a town and the final destination of this tour. I hope this clears up confusion for you. If there is anything we can do to earn a more positive review, please let me know!

It snowed! Highly recommend the gondola ride. The main street have cute little stores and good restaurants.
