Rockies - Our driver and guide, Bobby, was wonderful. He was an expert driver, very knowledgeable, extremely patient, and he took pains to be flexible and accommodating at every turn. The tour itself was great. It's a lot of driving and probably could have been made a little more efficient. For example going to Kewlona probably wasn't necessary and could have saved 2.5 hours. On the whole it was a beautiful and memorable vacation with my family made all the better by our excellent driver.
