Overview
Join us for an unforgettable ride on the Highway to the Sky in our 3-row Subaru Ascent! Drive through Rocky Mountain National Park on a 3.5 hour private driving tour with only your party & your guide! Our Highway to the Sky Tour takes you up the iconic roads on the east side of Rocky Mountain National Park that are open for your visit (Trail Ridge Road: Jun - Sep, or off road on Old Fall River Road: Jul - Sep). You will see the land transition from valleys to the high alpine tundra with sweeping mountain views, and reach a peak elevation of 12,183 ft! Quick 10-minute stop at the Alpine Visitor Center for a bathroom break before you drive down Trail Ridge Road to Estes Park. This guided drive is NOT a walking tour and has little time outside of the vehicle, it's the perfect mountain cruise.

We're only able to offer pickup for guests staying in Estes Park. If you're staying outside of Estes Park, we can meet you at the free parking garage for the Estes Park Visitor Center for pickup.

Rocky Mountain National Park
Our tour in Estes Park is all about taking a beautiful drive into the Rocky Mountain National Park. We'll take you as high up the mountain as the weather allows through beautiful scenic mountain passes. You'll see the town of Estes Park from above, beautiful lakes, meadows, tundra, and hopefully wildlife. Don't worry about the timed entry permit, your entrance and permit into the Rocky Mountain National Park are included!

Old Fall River Road
When open (typically July through September), your tour guide will take you up Old Fall River Road, a one-way dirt road that goes up to the Alpine Visitor Center. You'll experience thrilling cliff-side mountain driving, hopefully see beautiful wildlife, flowing waterfalls, and more! When Old Fall River Road is not open, you will drive up Trail Ridge Road as far as it is open for the season.
