Can't ask for anything more
My husband, daughter and I were fortunate to have Paul as our guide for the day. He picked us up at our hotel promptly at 9:00am. Paul immediately established an easy rapport, and laid out a plan for the day, considering the weather was cold with
a chance of rain. Paul has a great sense of humor and we laughed and talked all day.
I felt as if we were spending the day with a friend, who was showing us the area. Paul was a very knowledgeable guide, as well as great driver. Paul provided us with a fantastic day that made our trip to see the Phillies play the Rockies a fantastic getaway. If you get Paul as your guide for the day, you can look forward to a very enjoyable experience.

What a lovely day you had with Paul on the Pikes Peak tour! We hope to see you again soon, thank you for choosing Aspire Tours!

Steve was personable, relating to each member of our group. We appreciated the pictures he took of us - and driving to these beautiful locations so we could just enjoy our day. Thanks, Steve!
