Ok, so the tour itself was in my opinion the very best way to get your first taste of the Garden. It was fun, we tried something new, it was better than other modes of transportation, and we got to see everything fairly intimately. However, none of that could have happened without the AoW team.
Long story short, this was our first time to Colorado and this tour was the literal first thing on our agenda after getting off the plane. We had built in several hours of wiggle room just in case but lo and behold, several flight delays occurred which compromised our start time of 2pm (the latest available option).
I contacted the AoW team via phone in a panic when I started realizing that we probably were not going to make it and spoke with Baxter who calmly assured me that he'd reach out to the guide and would work it out as best he could and to get back with him once we we got on the plane, which I did. I also told him that I understood the policy and not to hold up any other guests. If we missed out, it's definitely not the AoW team's fault.
As soon as we landed, I sent him an email letting him know we were en route. He responded quickly and again reassured me that it would be alright. After arriving VERY late, thirsty, complete with airport gear on, we melt Keltie who was patiently awaiting our arrival. It was a warm, sunny day and I am white as a ghost...and that's when I realized I didn't bring my sunscreen and would begin my two week trip with a nasty sunburn. No fear, Keltie was prepared, let me use her sun screen, handed us some water, and off we went on our late, private tour.
My hat is off to the AoW team and especially to Baxter and Keltie who held that entire experience to together for us. It really meant a lot to both of us.
A great way to experience one of nature's greatest treasures: Garden of the Gods!! This tour includes sights such as Kissing Camels, Praying Hands, and Park Overlook. Unobscured views and a mellow pace will ensure your visit to this beautiful red rock park is memorable. Your guide will point out exotic plant life, Red-tailed Hawks, eagles' nests, mule deer, Big Horn Sheep, and of course, numerous spectacular geologic formations and the unique caricatures hidden within them. We make several short stops, but generally stay on the Segways throughout the tour. You will learn about the cultural history of the park, and hear a variety of tall tales and true stories of the Old West and Colorado Springs!! Be sure to dress in layers with closed-toe shoes. Includes Cone Zone safety training and the best guides in The West!!
