Outstanding tour

Published on Sep, 2024

Chad is an awesome wildlife expert. We saw lots of wildlife. He explained their behaviors which was amazing. A must do trip when visiting in the Estes Park area.

Great time in the park

Published on Sep, 2024

My husband and I came to RMNP and stayed on the West Side. The morning of our scheduled tour our trip was cancelled due to black ice being on Trail Ridge Road. Chad was so thoughtful about our safety knowing we are from Texas and not accustomed to driving on black ice in the dark. We were unable to rescedule due to prior arrangements, but Chadd told us some places to look. He put us on the animals! When we make another trip we are scheduling a trip with him. Not a photographer and I don't know how to enhance photos what you see it what it was!

Great tour

Published on Sep, 2024

We enjoyed the tour with amazing up close views of many species. Just before reaching the park, Chad pointed out the bald eagles. We saw lots of wildlife from moose, elk, deer, different birds, a black bear which we spent time watching! From the beautiful scenery in Rocky Mountain National Park and seeing the up close wildlife, it was an amazing trip. Highly recommended.

Amazing

We saw moose, deer and amazing elk. The elk was bugling and it was amazing. Also saw fabulous scenery. Chad was very knowledgeable and friendly. A very good trip.

worth doing!

Published on Aug, 2024

This is a Driving tour of the national park where Chad tries to find animals. we had a great time. Being australian, I was still not yet confident to A. drive on the opposite side of the road as usual- and look at animals. B know what i was looking at. we brought our own binoculars, but Chad also supplied them. We had a great tour of the entire national park, and saw lots of animals. Chad also told us interesting bits of history, and information about the animals/park/towns. IF we asked him something he didnt know, he actually looked it up whilst we were having lunch. we elected to have lunch at a restaurant. it was tasty mexican in a nice lakeside town.
