The Rocky Mountain Green Jeep Tour is a great way to quickly see the Rocky Mountsin National Park quickly. Loved being in the open air Jeep! Our guide, Pat was very knowledgeable, friendly, helpful, a safe driver, took pictures of us and never made us feel rushed. It was a great adventure going up the old dirt road and we saw a moose, several elk, a mule dear and marmots! Would highly recommend for anyone- you just need to be able to climb a couple of stairs to get in the jeep and we did several short walks. Thank you Pat for a great day!
A wonderful way to see the Rocky Mountain National Park! Sam, our guide was an absolute blast. Wonderful conversation and great amounts of information and knowledge about not only the Rockies but many other cool facts & tidbits. We did the Winter tour, and we definitely got to experience it lol. The snow started coming down halfway through our trip, but the complimentary hot chocolate helped warm us up. It helped that we had a fun bunch for our group too, making for great moments and photos. Sam did his best to make sure we saw any wildlife that was out and about. If you are visiting the area, this is a great alternative to going in blind and not knowing where to go and what to see. He took us to a few beautiful lakes, a waterfall, and explained the area as we drove through the lower section of the park since the upper section was still closed for the season. I would say that the jeeps rear section could use a little TLC when it comes to keeping dry, snow was coming in but what can you expect being in the bed of a truck lol. Big blankets were provided and the floor heaters made it more than bearable for the weather we endured. I'm sure the summer Tours are even more fun, definitely recommend!
We did the Estes Park Rocky Mountain National Park Safari Tour. It was Amazing! Our guide Pat was so knowledgeable and passionate about the park and nature in general. We learned a ton and Pat stopped multiple times to take pictures and do a couple short hikes. Saw moose, several elk and mule deer. Riding in the back of the jeep with open sides allowed us to take in the breathtaking scenery. When it got cold at 12,000 feet, they provided blankets and cranked up the heat. Thanks Pat for a very memorable day. The restaurant recommendation and scenic drive were spot on. Highly recommend.
If you're on the fence about booking Green Jeep Tours...this is your sign. Just do it.
We booked a private 6:00 AM Bear Lake Corridor tour for our family of four (my spouse, our 10-year-old son, our 6-year-old daughter, and me), and somehow everyone survived the 5:00 AM wake-up call. More importantly, it was 100% worth it.
Our guide, Jenn, was an absolute gem. She somehow managed to keep up with my 10-year-old son's endless stream of "But why?" questions and answered every single one with patience and enthusiasm. I'm pretty sure she knows everything there is to know about Rocky Mountain National Park.
The sunrise was unreal, the park was peaceful, and the wildlife clearly hadn't hit snooze yet. We saw elk, deer, ducks, a random beaver (which somehow became one of the kids' favorite sightings), and multiple moose. The highlight was watching a moose stroll into Sprague Lake and casually snack on aquatic plants while crossing the entire lake like she owned the place. Nature is wild.
The open-air Jeep was surprisingly comfortable, and they had blankets and water ready to go, so the cool morning air wasn't an issue.
One thing I really appreciated was how much Jenn respected the park. She obeyed the speed limits, safely pulled over for wildlife sightings, and never did anything that made us feel unsafe or that disturbed the animals. As the mom of a 6-year-old, I never once questioned her driving or decisions. I felt completely comfortable the entire time, which let me actually enjoy the scenery instead of playing backseat driver.
She also took amazing family photos and gave us recommendations for things to do after the tour. Thanks to her suggestion, we hiked Alluvial Falls the next day, where our kids spent two hours climbing boulders and pretending they were mountain goats.
The icing on the cake? Green Jeep Tours handled all the timed-entry reservations and park entrance logistics. Not having to battle the reservation system or set an alarm months in advance was worth its weight in gold.
If you're visiting Estes Park and want to experience Rocky Mountain National Park without worrying about the planning—and with someone who actually knows what they're talking about—book Green Jeep Tours. And if you get Jenn, consider yourself lucky. We'd do it again in a heartbeat.
Green Jeep Tours is awesome! Colton was our guide, and he was the best! He knew so much about the landscape, the animals, and the history of the park. He also made sure we were taken care of with water, sunscreen, and blankets if we needed them, plus he took photos for us!
I’ve done the Rocky Mountain Safari Tour twice now - five years ago and now a second time. You get to take in some absolutely amazing views, learn a lot, and see some wildlife (depending on the season I’m sure). We saw several elk and smaller animals. One of the best parts is going up to about 12,000 feet in elevation. It gets cold up there, so bring layers for sure. I would absolutely do this tour again and recommend it to anyone coming.
