Colorado Tours and Trips

From the beginning to the end of our trip everything went smoothly. It’s our third trip to Colorado and we always see things we hadn’t seen before. There really isn’t one memorable experience- Guess the best part was letting someone else do the driving and having a tour manager.

I enjoyed the tour very much! It was a lot to cover in a short amount of time. Tour Director Heather & bus driver Glen were fantastic. Glen is an awesome driver, I can't believe how he managed that big bus all over those narrow high roads! Heather did a great job watching over all of her over 60 year old "children":) I loved going to James Ranch for dinner. It was fun staying at Slater Hotel in Durango. I loved learning the history, and seeing the mountains etc. Great trip & great memories!

Heather Larson is the best tour manager I’ve ever had. She’s a wealth of information involving dates, names entertwined with history of the area all in story form committed to memory, making it easy to follow and interesting. I would suggest smaller meals at the end of the day, way too much food!

The tour was excellent, with a great your leader (Rick) and many great sites to visit. There was a lot of driving, but that is your best expected in such a big country as the USA. The accommodations were mostly similar types of hotels, all very comfortable. Mobile coverage was a little dodgy, especially in Yellowstone Park, not surprisingly. The Grand Canyon was magnificent, with plenty of time to enjoy it. Overall an excellent adventure.

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.

We had a once in a lifetime experience on the Colorado Rockies Tour. The views were absolutely breathtaking and the tour guide Bryce and the bus driver Rhonda were also amazing. I think our favorite stop was the Arches in Utah and that was added on because there was a wildfire in Black Canyon. We did the walk to see the double mask and did quite well considering our age. The meals were unbelievable- the many choices helped because they always had my favorite food, Salmon, available. Sadly, we had to leave early because my husband had a medical problem and that was also taken care of immediately thanks to Bryce and the hotel manager at Strater Hotel in Durango. So many nice people that we met and shared stories. I would definitely recommend Collette to everyone.
