5Perfect way to start your morning - Red Rocks morning hike
Most definitely worth every dollar spend on this your. Easy to get a ticket, well explained in the program what’s ahead of you. Environment is gorgeous, very clean. Guide tought hiking techniques and gave tips how to adjust to the altitude. You are a beginner or experienced hiker, you are in good hands with Brennan.
5Half-day Rocky Mountain Hike
Aaron was a fabulous guide and went above and beyond to make our trip memorable. He kept us safe on the drive to our hike and during the hike. He was the most educational and informative guide we could have asked for. The hike itself had beautiful views and was the right amount of challenge for an active family.
5Great trail, great guide
It was a great trail with fun historical monuments and facts. Ty was an awesome guide. I will be requesting him the next time I book.
5We had the pleasure to...
We had the pleasure to have Jerry S. as our guide. We ended up doing the full day (instead of the half day). Jerry was very knowledgeable of the history and the trials. Even when I was not feeling good due to my body still setting used to the height he was very patient and helpful. If you don't have a lot of experience hiking (or even if you do) Jerry S. will be and outstanding guide for you!! (IMO)
5Beautiful tour!
This far exceeded my expectations. Originally booked for this trip - due to lack of participants I was offered the Denver Foothills Explorer half day tour and loved it. Sean was the guide and he knew EVERYTHING about what we saw that day - from the history of the state, the city to in depth info on the nature we got to see and did it in a very fun, informative way. Coupled with the amazing sites - Rocky Peaks, Dinosaur hill, Lookout Mtn, etc. - it was a perfect way to get to see and explore the area in just four hours. If all the guides are like Sean, this is a highly recommended way to spend an afternoon!

About Denver
Denver, the Mile High City, is Colorado's capital on the plains at the foot of the Rocky Mountains, with museums, breweries and the Red Rocks amphitheatre.
Denver stands one mile above sea level on the high plains, with the Front Range of the Rocky Mountains filling the western horizon. It began as a gold-rush town in 1858 and grew with railways and mining. Union Station, a restored rail hall, anchors the lower downtown, and the Colorado State Capitol has a step on its west side marked as one mile above sea level.
Top-ranked sights in Denver: Red Rocks Park and Amphitheatre, Larimer Square, Dairy Block.
