Denver 4x4 Jeep Tour: You Drive Mountain Trails & Ghost TownsYou’ll drive your own Jeep through Colorado’s high country near Denver with a local guide leading the way—over rocky trails, past ghost towns, and up to alpine lakes like Bill Moore or Saint Mary’s Glacier. Every turn is yours to make (with coaching if you want), group sizes are small, and you’ll feel that mountain air in your lungs long after you’re back in town.
Private Jeep Tour Vail: You Drive the BackcountryA private you-drive Jeep tour in Vail, Colorado, where you pilot your own custom-built vehicle on backcountry trails while a guide navigates and teaches. The tour runs five hours with multiple stops for views, a picnic lunch halfway through, and instruction in off-road driving skills and mountain history. You drive; the guide handles route decisions and safety.Is it for me?Book this if you want to drive yourself rather than ride along—you'll handle the wheel on backcountry trails while learning terrain skills, and the guide navigates the route so you focus on the driving experience.
YOU Drive the Jeep: Sunset Tour in Black Hawk, ColoradoYou drive a guided Jeep tour through Yankee Hill Road near Black Hawk, Colorado, navigating mining trails, steep climbs, and challenging rock obstacles in Arapaho National Forest while a live English-speaking guide directs the route. The tour runs two hours and adjusts its start time with the season to catch the best sunset views; all fees, taxes and an air-conditioned vehicle are included.Is it for me?You're driving the whole time, not riding along, so book this if you want hands-on control of the vehicle and don't mind steep, rocky terrain. The guide handles the route, which means you focus on the driving itself rather than navigation.

Silverton Half Day Jeep Tour: San Juan Mountains with guideA half-day jeep tour through the San Juan Mountains above Silverton in a custom 4x4 vehicle with a professional guide, covering preserved mining sites, high-altitude tundra, waterfalls and Colorado wildflowers. The guide leads the route, provides water and blankets, and runs a scavenger hunt for children. You choose between a morning or afternoon departure.Is it for me?Choose the morning departure if you want the high country before afternoon clouds roll in, or the afternoon slot if you're arriving in Silverton later in the day—both routes cover the same terrain and mining sites, so the choice is yours based on when you're free.
Woodland Park: 4-Hour Self-Guided Jeep Tour ColoradoYou rent a specially equipped Jeep in Woodland Park and drive yourself through Pike National Forest backcountry for four hours using custom GPS maps and provided binoculars. The route is yours to choose — wildlife viewing, scenic stops, a picnic, a local restaurant — and the team stays reachable by two-way radio if you need anything. Collision protection and forest navigation are included; you just need a valid license and your own auto insurance.Is it for me?Right for groups or couples who want to explore Colorado backcountry without a guide's schedule — you choose the roads, the stops, and the pace, and the Jeep and GPS get you where you want to go.
La Plata Canyon Jeep Tour Colorado: 2.5-hour adventureThis is a 2.5-hour guided Jeep tour through La Plata Canyon near Durango, Colorado, in custom open-air 4x4 vehicles navigating glacial terrain, narrow ravines and steep mountain roads. You'll see waterfalls, alpine meadows, aspen groves or wildflower fields depending on season, and watch for elk, deer, marmots and birds while your guide explains the area's mining past. Tours run mid-May through October with three departure times to choose from; water is included and the route tops out at 10,745 feet in Columbus Basin.Is it for me?Book the afternoon departure if you're staying in Durango and want to explore the high country without reshaping your whole day. The 2.5-hour window fits between lunch and dinner, and the 1:15 PM start gives you the morning for other plans.

ATV Riding Colorado: Alpine Loop Scenic BywayAn 8-hour UTV expedition through Colorado's San Juan Mountains where you drive a premium Polaris RZR across the Alpine Loop Scenic Byway, navigating Engineer Pass and Cinnamon Pass while visiting Animas Forks Ghost Town and Lake City. GPS navigation, helmets and goggles, and standard insurance are included. A live guide in English leads the route; children are welcome from age 1.Is it for me?The live guide delivers commentary in English throughout the route, so language is not a barrier. This works for anyone with moderate fitness who wants to drive an off-road vehicle themselves rather than ride as a passenger—the eight-hour day and the altitude are what shape the choice, not the skill level required.
