Definitely worth the price and worth the adventure. Your guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. Showed us different paths of the red rocks. Definitely recommend
We had a lot of fun touring the amphitheater with you and Adaly! We're so happy you enjoyed hiking the trails that surround the amphitheater. It definitely was a gorgeous morning!
The tour to experience the sunrise at the magic place of the red rocks amphitheatre was just amazing. The tour guide Anne provided interesting information on geology, botanics and wildlife, and wisely guided us along the trails. It was a short tour (2 hours) but quite impressive, I recommend to people who has limited time available and want to have an incredible experience in a quiet moment.
Thank you for such a lovely review. We're happy to hear we were able to provide you with an extraordinary experience in the limited amount of time that you had. I always love sharing the geology and the flora and fauna of the park. Come back and see us again soon!
I really enjoyed the early morning tour of Red Rocks Park. The morning was cool and the park uncrowded. I even saw the sun peering out from behind the rocks. Anne did a wonderful job of describing the history and geology of the area. I also loved the fact that we were able to do a short hike. I would recommend spending more time in the museum if you are able when the official tour ends
The Red Rocks Sunrise Walking Tour with Anne was a great way to start the day. This was the perfect time to walk around red rocks. The temperature was a perfect 70 degrees and the park really came to life as the sun rose in the sky. I’ve been to red rocks before but had no idea how much history is behind the park. Anne made learning fun with story after story. I’ll never look at the park the same way again. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to experience Red Rocks in a different way, learn more about its history, and enjoy watching the sunrise over this dramatic landscape.
We did the early morning Red Rocks tour with Anne. The amphitheater was gorgeous and there weren't many people there at seven in the morning, which made it really special. After the amphitheater, we did a short hike near the trading post and I especially liked this part of the tour as we love to hike. The trading post gift shop was open when the tour was over, which was a great way to end and we were the first into the shop!
