Custom Learning Experiences

Custom Wildlife & Ecology Tours

If your visit to Rocky Mountain National Park doesn’t line up with one of our regularly scheduled bus tours, we can schedule a private tour to fit your schedule! We will work with you to plan a customized trip that brings your family or group into the heart of Rocky Mountain National Park with multiple stops for educational outings and/or short hikes. Our experienced guides will help plan a route tailored to your interests, whether that’s tundra ecology, geology and glacial features, the history of Rocky Mountain National Park, or something else entirely. Itineraries can also be customized to include short strolls along a lake shore or more challenging short hikes as desired.

Group Size: up to 14 people

Price: $600

Tours are 3 hours in length. You choose the time and date.
