Our day exploring Rocky Mountain National Park with John was simply unforgettable. We were treated to sightings of elk and deer, with John stopping at perfect vantage points for us to soak in the breathtaking scenery and capture unforgettable photos. Further, John prioritized our safety and comfort, providing a heated van, water bottles, and bathroom breaks as needed.
He painted a vivid picture of RMNP in all its glory, sharing not only the sights we saw but also stunning images of the park in different seasons and the wildlife we didn't encounter during our visit.
John's extensive knowledge of the park's history and wildlife and his infectious enthusiasm made the tour both informative and fun. If you're visiting RMNP, don't miss the chance to experience it with John from Estes Park Trolleys. Highly recommended!

We had a very nice tour to the Alpine Visitors Center. Good driver and tour guide! Only 8 on our tour which made it even better. Beautiful views!
Could give it a 5 rating except no one ever answers the phone, returns calls, or emails!

We had a great time! It was so nice to leave the driving to someone else and all the wonderful information the tour guide gave was so interesting. We also got to get out and walk up a trail to a waterfall and walked around a small lake. Plenty of stops to take pictures, too. We highly recommend the trolley tour of RMNP.

My husband and I were in Estes Park recently and since he has mobility issues I decided we should go on the trolley tour instead of one of the more rugged tours. What a great decision as it was not what I envisioned a "trolley ride" to be. Our trolley ride took us up into Rocky Mountain National Park where we learned about all the vegetation, animals, history and how the park has changed. The trolley made the first stop and any passengers who wanted to could get off and hike up to the falls. It was beautiful and I enjoyed the hike while my husband stayed on the trolley and enjoyed the company of the driver, Nick. We continued our trolley ride and Nick stopped when there were sights or animals we might want to photograph all the while explaining what we were seeing. We went to Sprague Lake where we learned who owned the land before the park and how they had created the lake. Passengers who wanted to, hiked around the lake which was stunning and a very good hike. We were guided through so many areas in the park during our 3 hour tour and Nick knew where the good bathrooms were! We also went through town to see all the sights there and learn about the history of Estes Park as well as all the best places to eat. Our trolley ride was a wonderful way to learn all about Rocky Mountain National Park and Estes Park from a very knowledgeable driver and narrator and I got to enjoy a few great hikes. Thanks Nick!!

This is a great tour to take thru Rocky Mountain National Park. Leave the driving to the trolley company and enjoy the sites and listen to the history of the park. The tour guide and driver were very knowledgeable of the park. We learned a lot about elk and sheep that inhabit the park. We saw a female moose and her calf up close and deer. Tour lasted 3 hours with many stop along the way where you were able to get off the trolley for walking or picture taking. Almost all stops had restroom facilities. They also had a cooler on the trolley with complementary bottled water if you like. We throughly recommend Estes Park Trolley for your tour. An excellent way to enjoy the park and know about the sites you are seeing.

The trolley takes you on a wonderful tour of Rocky Mountain National Park. It is 3 hours long and in addition to the driver there is a tour guide that provides narration. Our driver was Jan and our tour guide was Sunny and they both did an awesome job and were very easy to talk to.

We did the tour so my husband could enjoy the sites instead of driving. John Long was our guide and did a great job. The ride is 3 hours long dependent on traffic, entry line, etc. but you get your money's worth no worry. John provided a lot of insight regarding the area that was enjoyable and appreciated. Will do again.

A great tour, with regular stops to walk around and take pictures. Catherine was a lovely host and tour guide and both she and the driver were kind and patient and regaled us with stories and interesting details. Thank you both, and thank you for being my walking buddy, Catherine!

For the price I was disappointed we were down graded to a van when expecting a trolley. I thought more time would be spent at the Stanley Hotel but we just drove thru the lot and got a little history. We had to skip a photo op location due to the amount of time we waited in line to get into the park. The guide was great, he was friendly.
