Excellent tour. Jason was an outstanding narrator and guide. Can't recommend enough!
The rocks and the amphitheater are very impressive
The tour was great! We were impressed with our tour guide Gable. He was friendly, very knowledgeable and had a great sense of humor. He was the best we’ve ever experienced.
This half-day tour was extra good because the tour guide, Matt C (or “MC”) was great. A history teacher, he had lots of information well orchestrated with the drive. We saw Red Rocks, a look-out point, an unexpected pull-over to see buffalo, and a stop in the city of Golden. His knowledge of and appreciation for each gave an overall feeling of goodness.
In our experience, the time at the red rocks amphitheater was too short as there is a lot to see in the visitor center
Hello, Thank you for booking with Aspire Tours and thank you for sharing your feedback. Red Rocks is such a special place, and we understand that some guests would enjoy having more time to explore the amphitheater and visitor center. Because this is a shared tour with multiple stops, we do have to balance the time across the full itinerary, but we appreciate the suggestion and will continue reviewing the pacing of the experience.
Great half day tour. Got a lot in in 4 hours and didn't feel rushed. Guide was great. Perfect for all ages
Great experience! Well worth the cost.
Great tour with Gable. Views, transportation and a knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful tour guide. Recommend.
We had such a great morning. Gable was a fantastic guide. He was knowledgeable and fun. We got to see Bison which was very cool.
It was a nice and informative tour, but the van was too small for the people. It was too cramped. My husband had his leg hanging off the seat all the time.
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re glad to hear the tour was nice and informative, but we’re sorry the van seating felt too cramped for your comfort. Our tours operate in standard passenger vans, and while this format allows us to offer a smaller group experience than a large motorcoach, we understand that the seating may not feel spacious for every guest, especially when the tour is full.
