    Highly recommend this tour! Phil was a great guide. The hike itself was a bit more strenuous than expected, bit we should have read the description better. My husband and I were quite proud of ourselves when we finished. The views were amazing.

    Our tour guide Dylan (not sure of spelling haha) was fantastic! We were able to see herd of Elk and just enjoy the amazing views. Dylan got us safely out of the storm that quickly was approaching. Thank goodness for packing rain gear. It was an incredible day. Everyone in the group was nice and friendly. A fun day that I’ll always remember.

    This was the perfect last full day of our week long family trip to Colorado with our teenage boys. Our guide, Nick, made the day. Picking out a great hike to Emerald Lake that still had some snow on it in early June and brought everything along we needed ie. Shoes chains for the snow, sandwiches, plenty of water and even chips and cookies! Would highly recommend!

    The guide, Erren was really kind, knowledgeable and prepared throughout the hiking at the rockies. In his words, we were really lucky to watch 3 out of the 4 most memorable animals in the mountains. Yes, moose included.

    We did the Rocky Mountain full day hike with Kyle yesterday. It was incredible. The views, breathtaking. It was definitely more challenging than we expected but we appreciated the stop for coffee with the locals, his passion and enthusiasm about wildlife, his knowledge and experience which helped us trust him, and how he encouraged us. We loved Kyles recommendation for dinner! We tried the buckhorn exchange! It was definitely the highlight of our time in Colorado!

    , Apr 2022
    Aaron is a very great tour guide. From the pick up time, we waited until a little bit for the two persons who were late but other than that we were on time. He was very considerate for the people who are first time hikers (me!) with our hiking pace. He shared a lot of information about the rocky mountains and denver and gives up tips on where to eat and visit while we’re in town. He’s willing to take our pictures, most of the times we wouldn’t even asked him but he would offer immediately! Overall, I would recommend this trip, it was more than worth the money we paid for with what we did with this trip!

    , Apr 2022
    HIGHLY RECOMMEND! My boyfriend and I enjoyed our tour and had a fantastic experience with Nick on Hiking Aspire Tours. As avid travelers, I would say that our hiking tour with Nick was one of the best we’ve ever done. Nick is very knowledgeable and shared many fascinating facts about the area's history, culture friendly and made sure we had a great day. He took us to incredible Rockies and it truly felt like a day out with an old friend. We hiked on Cub Lake , man it was the highlight of my Denver trip. Thank you , Nick & Aspire Tours for this wonderful first timer experienced in Denver. We absolutely loved it and can't wait to come back!

    From start to finish, this trip was an incredible journey! Jed, like Jedi but without the i (inside joke), was the best guide! His knowledge of the Denver area, the Rocky Mountains, and the hike itself were amazing. The hike was easily the most incredible hike I’ve ever had. The views, far exceeded our expectations, and our expectations were high. I couldn’t recommend this trip enough! Do it, you won’t regret it!
