DISCOVER THE WONDER

Departing on a luxurious Coach from the Colorado Convention Center at 7:00 am with your Personal Tour Director & Guide, you’ll discover the diverse Colorado Front Range scenery before commencing your Jeep & Royal Gorge adventure in the region of "the Climate Capital of Colorado.” Our intimate 3.25-hour Jeep exploration of the rim of the 'Grand Canyon of the Arkansas River' and a glorious view of the Wet Mountains and Freemont Peak will reveal the majestic Colorado Rocky Mountains. We'll stop for lunch (on our own) at the Royal Gorge Bridge & Park where you can experience the Bridge on foot, the Royal Rush Skycoaster, Aerial Gondola, Cloud Scraper Zip Line, Plaza Theater, Water Clock, Visitor Center, and view the Via Ferrata and nature at its most dramatic. We'll have the opportunity to see wildlife. This might include bald eagles, turkey vultures, Heron, Rocky Mountain bighorn sheep, mule deer, fox, coyote, and flora native to the gorge. This unique Jeep & Park adventure is a chance to combine Fremont County’s only guided Jeep experience and a slice of Colorado Rocky Mountain history. Departing for Denver, we'll explore regional agriculture through the addition of a unique cider-tasting escapade before our 6:45 pm estimated Denver arrival, with plenty of time for your own evening-meal reservations.
