Great hiking tour!

I booked this tour but it ended up not meeting the minimum participant requirement. Breanne was nice enough to take me on another day even though I was the only one on the tour. The hike was beautiful, we got to explore different trails and go right up to the glacier and Breanne is such a great guide! Really enjoyed the tour
Awesome experience

I can't say enough great things about this tour and especially our guide, Trey. He made the whole experience so easy and informative and fun and made sure everyone was taken care of. The trek itself was perfect and stunning. Best of all versions of nature, especially for a 1.5 mile total hike...ending at the lake of incredible beauty. Idaho Springs was cute and fun to visit and the pizza was awesome at the end of a long, well earned day. The Springs in the middle to soak yourself after the hike was perfection! Highly recommend!!!

Great day! Weather was perfect and our guide Bree was super. It was a great experience and we enjoyed every part of the tour

Ariel was a fun tour guide - motivating and full of fun stories. The group size was small which made it feel more personal. I loved the combination of beautiful outdoor scenery, with relaxation, and delicious food. This tour has everything. The hike was short, not too strenuous, and very worthwhile for the incredible views!
Fun and exciting tour

A truly exciting experience. Trey made the experience more memorable with his vast knowledge of the surroundings and took care of everyone in the group of four. He is a great guide and this tour is highly recommended.
Would do it again in a heartbeat

Bree was amazing. She really looked after everyone, catering for different experience levels. The day was gorgeous, Colorado really shone for us in all her glory. Get up to that glacier, get in those hot hot hot springs and eat that delicious pizza asap
First hike ever!

This tour was amazing. Breann took very good care of us. This was my first hike, and Breann was so patient and kind to me. Our group had very good vibes and I will never forget this experience. The cave pool was incredible too! And the pizza was delicious. Highly recommend this tour!
Excellent day in Rockies

Went with my mom and sister and we had an awesome time. The hike was certainly doable and we had a fun time with the photos when we got to the top. Ariel, our guide, was the sweetest and so helpful. We enjoyed the pool after (as the hot springs were too hot) and had a great time at pizza and exploring Idaho springs.e Excellent day trip!
Amazing experience!

I decided to take this tour on a whim because I’ve always wanted to go to a hot springs. My husband couldn’t join me in Colorado because of Covid and I wanted to make the most of my time. I am so glad I did! This tour was amazing. The hike was challenging because of the elevation but the views were stunning. Alli and Bree were amazing tour guides. So friendly and knowledgeable. When I was struggling on the path, they made me feel like I wasn’t alone and I was doing good. They felt like friends and not just tour guides. The hot springs were hot but so neat and the pizza was delicious. I highly recommend this tour!

We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.
