What people love about Rocky Mountains Tours for Seniors
- Five Epic National Parks (9 Days)
I really enjoyed my trip: unforgettable landscapes, excellent guide and good hotels. Highly recommend this tour.
- Wonders of the American West (Classic, 10 Days)
Well planned and executed.
- Highlights of the Canyonlands
This trip exceeded our expectations. Of course the Grand Canyon and Monument Valley were memorable but Bryce Canyon and Zion Canyon were exceptional, we've talked about going back one day to do some hiking in the area. Las Vegas is of course over the top but it's good fun, we would recommend a couple of extra days there. Our guide and driver, Kristin and Randy, were both very good - we would definitely recommend this tour.
