WOW! You really must consider doing this! I highly, highly recommend this experience, this company, and our guide, Jared. I don’t normally write reviews, but I had to on this one because our day was so amazing. We just spent one of the most incredible and educational days I’ve ever had with any of my children. I am mother to... More

If you are reasonably active and mentally curious, and if you want to experience RMNP in an in-depth way, then Jared is your Rockies Whisperer. I spent 2 days in mid-April in Estes Park. The first day Jared took me on a nature safari. It was off-and-on snowy and windy, so we didn't stay outdoors for extensive periods (20-30 mins... More

I had just gotten my Nikon D800 a week ago and was anxious to shoot some scenery in RMNP. Jared knew all the great places and also helped me immensely in my continuing quest to learn more about photography. My wife joined us and asked Jared a million questions about the park, all of which he expertly answered! Whenever I... More

My family goes to Estes Park quite often, and we thought we knew "the park". Jarred showed us places we had no idea existed. He is excellent at customizing the tour to your desires. The family group that went with him included a granddaughter of 5 years old and a great-grandmother. Everyone had a great time. You haven't seen the... More

We picked this tour based off the reviews here and were not disappointed. Jared had so many options for tours I was torn as to which one to do. So I emailed telling him what I wanted and he created a tour for us. A very early morning later he picked us up at our hotel and office went I... More

Our day was so special. We were brought to the animals so we could take great pictures. We were also guided as how to best use our cameras and lenses for maximum results. Then we were treated to so much knowledge of the animals habits and history of the Park and surroundings. Truly a wealth of information, never to be... More

My wife and I had the pleasure of spending a very cold, beautiful morning with Jared. Jared picked us up at our hotel and for 3-4 hours we toured around RMNP looking for wildlife and photo opportunities. Jared provided us with great information about the park, the wildlife contained in it and photography in general. I would recommend this tour... More

What a fantastic tour this was! Jared was very knowledgeable not only on the wildlife, but also photography. Thanks to him, I now have the knowledge to make the most of my photos. I was able to use Jared's tips the very next day, with great results. Do not miss this when in Estes Park! More

My husband, two sons (aged 11 & 6) and I went on this tour with Jared yesterday and we thoroughly enjoyed it. Jared wanted to set out really early (we met him at around 7 a.m.), and admittedly, it was quite a task getting the kids out of their warm, cozy beds on a cold day. But from the moment... More

Jared was fantastic! My husband and I took a 3.5 hour snowshoeing tour with Jared on the second day of our honeymoon in Estes Park. It was perfect - Jared was knowledgeable, conversational, friendly, and very informed. We got a great mix of history, wildlife education, and "practical" knowledge for me (the person who's never snowshoed before). We did about... More
