What To Expect

Your full-day adventure around Colorado Springs starts at a designated meeting point in Denver, so make your own way there. Board the comfortable shared bus and relax on the journey while someone else drives.

Your first stop will be the impressive Garden of the Gods, where you can admire the dramatic red rock formations. Stop for lunch in Manitou Springs, where you can also shop for souvenirs or gifts.

Next, be driven up to the summit of Pike’s Peak. At more than 14,000 feet (4,200 meters), the views from here are incredible. Taking a guided tour means you can watch the landscape rather than the road, and avoid the risk of mountain driving if you’re not used to the conditions.

After getting your fill of the beautiful views, be transferred back to Denver.
