The planned lunch stops were outstanding little towns and views! Plenty of comfort stops and clean enough. Even the pit toilets were pretty ok! Heather always checked in with individuals if she was proposing any change in the traveling time( like push through another 30 minutes or earlier lunch and have more time at a view). Heather and Glen were a great team and the talking history she gave was A+. The afternoon was â€œnap time â€œ for many folks and Heather was very considerate of those snoozing even gently beginning to talk and waken them.Show more

I have never been to Colorado, so this was my first trip there. The vistas were awesome. Even though it was just rocks, pictures do not do it justice, as you have to see it in person to appreciate the Rockies. Bryce Hill, our tour guide, made it very interesting with all the information about the places we visited. I think my favorite location was the Arches National Park. It was unbelievable that all those rock formations were formed millions of years ago. The accommodations and restaurants we ate at were top-notch. Rhonda, our bus driver, was very pleasant and handled the mountain roads like a pro. We met some very nice people on the tour. Unfortunately, I got altitude sickness and had to return home before the end of the tour, but 5 out of the 9 days we were on the tour were breathtaking. Bryce helped immensely in getting me medical help and made arrangements so that we could return home. My wife and I had a great time on this trip, and Bryce and Rhonda ensured we had everything we needed. The rest stops were well planned to allow for bathroom breaks between attractions. At some of the stops, we had time to pick our own place to eat and shop before moving on to the next attraction.Show more

Our flight to Colorado was a direct flight, so no negotiating airports. Our tour guide greeted us at the luggage pickup and escorted us to our bus for the week. All of the hotels were of high quality and we got good sleep every night. Too many sights to see, the tour hit most of the highlights. In my opinion, the Arches National park and Pikes Peak were the highlights for me. Our tour manager, Curtis, prepared us for what to expect the next day as far as sights to see, itinerary changes and the expected weather. Sometimes we had to change plans because of unexpected delays, but this is to be expected. I would recommend this tour for anybody wanting to see Colorado at it's finest.Show more
