Discover Rocky Mountain National Park

I will not forget this...

I will not forget this experience. Our guide, Jeff, is so nice, and we tried delicious coffee and steak burgers during the trip! Also, the Rocky Mountains are fantastic!!!

Great experience

We had a wonderful time. Our guide Aaron was very kind and helpful. He was also very informative and cheerful all along the way. The trip itself had beautiful views. And we made a lot of nice stops. It was our guide Aaron who made it extra special.

Great tour for the nearby Rocky Mountains national park

Knowledgeable guide. Well equipped van. Beautiful scenery. Highly recommended if you want to have a good day tour to nearby mountains.

Rocky Mountain in the Winter, Just BEAUTIFUL!!

Beautiful tour! The snow added a touch more to the beauty of it all. Dress Warm and wear proper winter footwear. I enjoyed the pace. I appreciated the lunch recommendations in the little town we stopped in. Only knock is when seated in the back row. It’s difficult to hear the driver as there aren’t any microphones and the road noise is too loud to understand much.

Scenery was beautiful. ...

Scenery was beautiful. We went in January so it was very cold. A little more time in the town of Estes Park would've been nice. Overall pleasant and our guide, Nathaniel, was excellent, with just the right amount of explaining and entertaining!

Amazing Experience

Great Experience. Had a amazing time, our guide was super friendly and had lots of knowledge and made the experience even better.

Rocky Mountain tour

Aaron was absolutely amazing! He talked us through everything we were doing mad made sure we stopped and took great photos! (Even offered to take photos for us) I wish the experience was even longer because we had so much fun!

Great tour of the Rockies

It was amazing and Jerry Swider was a great guide! Very knowledgeable and took pictures of all of us. Also, helped with any other recommendations of places to see.

Rocky Mountain national park

Great tour, Jerry was a great Guide. We saw a lot of wild animals and it was very cold and snowy but beautiful. Highly recommended and dress layers if you go in the winter.

Excellent day tour

Excellent day out, a great way to see the Rockies and history of Denver and a bit more. Jerry is a great guide who kept us all well informed the whole day, but not overwhelming. Friendly group so some good banter and laughs.

The Rocky Mountains National Park tour

This was a great introduction to the Rocky Mountains National Park. The tour guide, Jerry S, was fantastic and the whole experience was great - with sufficient time at stops to not feel rushed. Highly recommend.

Great day trip

What a great day! I read the reviews before booking my trip to the Rocky Mountains. However, the reviews really did not do this trip justice and I can now understand why. You have to actually get out in nature to appreciate this trip. The tour Adam was great providing all the details of what we were experiencing along the way. I would diffidently recommend this tour! 12/2024

Great tour guide! He is...

Great tour guide! He is very knowledgeable about the history of Denver and native animals. Overall the trip is to go to the Rocky Mountain national park for the lake, elk or deer watching. After that, they will bring you to a town to have lunch. I think this trip is really worthy!

Amazing Rocky Mountain Tour

This was an amazing experience! Our guide was Adam and he was full of information and fun. The views were amazing and we got to see elk. It was the perfect combination of a guided tour as well as some solo time to take pictures and explore. Highly highly recommend, it was an unforgettable experience!

our tour is one of the...

our tour is one of the best! She’s so caring, professional and kind. We were able to see a herd of elks.

Great day out

Great relaxing day, Aaron was full of good and interesting information. If you have a day to spare in Denver, this is an excellent way to spend it. Plan to come back when the weather is warmer :)

Lovely tour

The Rocky Mountain National Park is a must-visit for anyone traveling to Denver. Its breathtaking natural beauty, outdoor activities, and opportunities for wildlife viewing make it a perfect destination for adventure seekers and nature lovers alike. I highly recommend to book this trip with Aspen, Jared the tourist was amazing, he made an almost 10hr trip feel like 30 minutes.

Jerry is amazing!

Me and my girlfriend decided to book this tour the day before because we had a short trip in Denver and decided why not?! We don’t regret it one bit! Our tour guide Jerry was great and super knowledgeable and answered everyone’s questions and was super accommodating! Made sure to check for any wild animals for us as well! We got to see deers, elks, and moose’s because of him! We would highly recommend this tour! You won’t regret it!

Once in a lifetime views

The views were absolutely astonishing, I grew up near the Appalachian Mountains and the Rocky Mountains are so much more beautiful and grand

Amazing

This tour was everything I hoped it would be. I really enjoyed myself, and the guide was very informative and had a great personality and sense of humor which is always a plus.

A herd of elk

We had a great guide (Jed). The experience was extraordinary! We saw a lot of wildlife including a herd of at least 200 elk.

Definitely Not Amused

The guide talked Way Too Much. As he reminded us we were a ‘captive audience’, he locked the van doors. He had no concept of ‘reading the room’. Not amused.

Unforgettable Rocky Mountain Tour with an Amazing Guide

Our Rocky Mountain National Park tour with Aspire Tours was absolutely amazing! Jed (like Jedi without the "I") was our guide, and he went above and beyond to make the experience unforgettable. His knowledge of the park was outstanding, and he was incredibly friendly and engaging throughout the trip. Jed’s efforts to help us spot wildlife really paid off—we saw deer and a massive herd of elk, nearly 200 strong! While we didn’t get to see a moose, Jed’s determination and enthusiasm made the wildlife sightings truly special. He also offered fantastic recommendations for food and entertainment in Denver after the tour, which we really appreciated. And, of course, his dad jokes kept the group entertained with just the right mix of humor and groans! If you’re looking for a fun, well-organized, and memorable way to experience the Rocky Mountains, Aspire Tours is the way to go. And if you’re lucky enough to have Jed as your guide, you’re in for an incredible day!

Great tour.

Amazing views. Great use of time. Got to see a lot. Beautiful views. Tour guide was great. You do see a lot in the short amount of time that you're there.

Would do it again in a heartbeat

Awesome experience! Everywhere we were taken to was great and Jed was an awesome guide! There was so much to see and plenty of photographical moments throughout the whole day.

Must Do Activity

This trip was AMAZING!! We were able to see so many beautiful sites and wildlife. Our guide Jed went out of his way to make our trip both educational AND enjoyable. Jed even went “wildlife hunting” while we were eating lunch, so that we had an opportunity to see a herd of elk. It was INCREDIBLE!!

Th excursion offered breathtaking scenery, but hefty price tag made the experience feel less worthwhile

The scenery was wonderful and the guide was nice and helpful. Although I tipped him, he did not provide as much knowledge as other tour guides from other golobal tours I have done with Viator. My reason for the three stars was that I thought that the tour was very expensive given thatI I was picked up and dropped off at Boulder and not Denver. The driving distance would have been 2 hours less and the people I was staying with in Boulder asked me how much I paid and looked at the tour and they said it was pretty steep. In the advertisement , it mentioned that we would be having a picnic lunch weather permitting and I was also asked my dietary requirements The weather was perfect yet we were dropped off Elkhorn avenue Estates park for 1.5 hours and told that we could have lunch and were given some recommendations by the tour guide.The Company should make it clear that lunch/picnic lunch would not be provided and let us decided if we want to pay so much money to see a tour

Jerry S was a great...

Jerry S was a great guide. We felt safe and had an amazing experience in nature. We would definitely recommend this trip to others that want to explore the Rocky Mountains.

Rocky Mountain Trip

It was a great experience with plenty of sightseeing options. We stopped at multiple locations and explored various areas. The stop in Estes Park was especially enjoyable, as we had ample time to have lunch and explore the town. One suggestion would be for the driver to take the mountain turns a bit more slowly for added comfort. Other than that, our tour guide was excellent, and I would highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to explore the Rocky Mountains in a day!

Best part of our family trip to Denver

This was a very enjoyable tour. Scenery was beautiful and our guide, Jed, provided a wealth of information about the history and environment of literally everything we experienced. Great way to immerse oneself in the natural beauty of the area without having to worry about driving.

The snow was awesome!

We drove as high as we could, until they started closing the roads. The views were absolutely gorgeous. We saw lots of deer and even got to see some bighorn sheep! It snowed hard while we were there, so of course we had to get out and throw snowballs at each other! I would definitely go back and hopefully be able to stay longer.

Awesome experience for a weekend

Great place to visit . Take your family along with you. Nice place for a weekend experience. Lot of third party services available.

Breathtaking views

It was a splendid tour. Jeff was an insightful and fun tour guide. We were allowed plenty of stops and he did his very best to slow down to spot wildlife. Would highly recommend the tour!

Great tour!

We really enjoyed this trip and the scenery was great! Jeff was a great guide and we enjoyed the day in his group. We were hoping to have a bit more time and a few additional stops in the National park itself, but also understood that some things were limited due to the winter conditions.

Magical Tour

What an amazing tour! I had the best time seeing beautiful views & wildlife. Our tour guide Kasey was awesome & our group was fun. I highly recommend this Discover Rocky Mountain National Park tour, it will not disappoint.

Breathtaking

The tour guide (Kacey) was wonderful starting from the pickup till the drop off. Kacey used a headset with a small speaker so all of her passengers could hear her clearly. Kacey was very thorough and knowledgeable with Estes Park and RMNP. Pay the extra money for a tour guide from Aspire Tours, you won’t be disappointed. Thx again Kacey!

I recommend this trip to everyone!

I thought it was going to be good, but an arduous trip. However, it turned out to be a very relaxing, peaceful, but mostly fun and friendly trip! our tour guide, Jeff, was awesome! He was open to take any questions we had, and he entertained us with a great history of Colorado and the places we were stopping by. I seriously want to go back to Colorado. The trip with aspire tour helped me to appreciate and love Colorado. I appreciate everything this tour team did for us the tourists.

Great day trip

Scenery was amazing and our guide was very friendly and knowledgeable. Enjoyed his stories and information he gave. Highly recommended.

Memorable

Jeremiah was great. Knowledgeable and kind. Helped take photos. I was a solo traveler so it helped. He gave great ideas to explore downtown as well. Would do this again

Wonderful experience

Very good tour, the tour guide Dave is knowledgeable and shared information during the tour. He knows this places quite well. He made us interact and share our stories too which made the conversation more interesting. Only thing which missed was while booking they told to provide lunch which was not considered during the tour.

Highly Recommend

Aaron was an incredible tour guide. Very friendly & full of knowledge throughout the entire excursion. Many stops for photo ops of incredible views. We saw a herd of elk up close which was amazing. Aaron went out of his way to look for them while we were having lunch & exploring the town.

Awesome day in the mountains.

A wonderful day in Colorado with Aaron as our guide. Aaron was a tremendous guide - very knowledgeable of the area.

This tour was amazing!!!

This tour was amazing, Jed our guide was so knowledgeable and went out of his way to provide us with facts and recommendations. I did this solo and felt really safe and included in the group. I could not recommend this more!

PHENOMENAL!!!

PHENOMENAL day!! Ricco went WAY above beyond to make our day a great adventure. It was absolutely breathtaking seeing the Rocky Mountain National Park and Ricco was sooo knowledgeable.

Great intro to the Colorado Rockies

Great trip & introduction to the Rocky Mountain National Park. Lots of beautiful drives & views. Never felt rushed at all of the stops, Jeff was full of knowledge & a great host.

Memorable experience

Gorgeous views! Highly recommended. Sarah was so much fun to ride with. She was very knowledgeable and accommodating. Thank you

Best guide but misleading offering

I would have given this tour 5 stars because of the best guide Jed but I am rating it 3 as the tour clearly mentioned lunch as an inclusion which was actually not included. They even went to the lengths of asking dietary preferences, so it seemed like the management was trying to mislead people. Keeping that aside, the tour is perfect if you want to relax when someone else is driving and still enjoy the National park. Jed also made effort to find the elk herd and showed it to us. We had a fabulous time.

Steve is awesome

Steve went above and beyond. He goes out of his way to maximize the experience. He drove us right through herds of wildlife and educated us about historical facts and landmarks. Steve answered all of our questions and requests. Highly recommend.

Breathtaking views at a good price

I sadly do not remember my guide’s name, but he was wonderful. Giving info about the area as the day went along plus help us spot some wildlife. The vans are pretty comfy except the leg room was pretty tight, but I’m sort of tall so I understand. And the hike around the lake and the views were all amazing and not something we will forget.

Not As Interesting

I joined the tour to Rocky Mountains on 1/11/24 . The tour does not cover Bear Lake and Lily Lake which I later went on my own again the following Tuesday . These 2 lakes are stunning and I did not realise that the tour I booked did not cover these 2 highlights. Also no elks were spotted in Estee Park during the tour. However on my own , I spotted a red fox and several deers on the way back from Bear Lake at around 5 pm. So overall the tour I joined on Friday was not so interesting and to be honest it was a bit underwhelming.
