Private Rocky Mountain National Park tour from Denver, Gold Rush Transportation luxury fleet

A private day in Rocky Mountain National Park

A private Rocky Mountain National Park tour from Denver is the most relaxed way to see the park. No rental car, no timed entry stress, no fighting for parking. Your chauffeur handles the reservation, the driving, and the mountain roads while you look out the window for wildlife and take photos. You set the pace, and the day is yours and your group only.

The highlight is Trail Ridge Road, the highest continuous paved road in the country, which climbs past 12,000 feet into open alpine tundra with views across the Continental Divide. Along the way you have a good chance to see elk, bighorn sheep, marmots, and sometimes moose, with easy photo stops at overlooks like Many Parks Curve and the Alpine Visitor Center, the highest visitor center in the National Park System.

We handle the timed entry reservation
Rocky Mountain National Park requires a timed entry permit to drive in during the busy season, and they sell out fast. That is the number one headache for park visitors. When you book with us, we secure the reservation for your tour so you do not have to think about it. Just be ready at pickup.

Your day, start to finish

The day runs about 9 to 10 hours from the Denver area, less if you start closer in Estes Park, and the plan is flexible.

1
Door to door pickup
Early morning
We pick you up from your hotel, home, or vacation rental anywhere in the Denver, Boulder, Loveland, or Estes Park area. An early start means better light, calmer roads, and the best wildlife viewing.
2
Drive to the park through Estes Park
About 1.5 hours from Denver
Ride up to Estes Park, the historic gateway town, and into Rocky Mountain National Park on your reserved timed entry permit.
3
Trail Ridge Road and the alpine tundra
The heart of the day
Climb Trail Ridge Road past 12,000 feet into open tundra with sweeping views of the Continental Divide. Stop for photos at the overlooks and at the Alpine Visitor Center, and watch for elk, bighorn sheep, and marmots along the way.
4
Bear Lake or Sprague Lake
Easy walking, weather permitting
Time permitting and with the right permit, we visit the Bear Lake area for an easy lakeside stroll under the peaks, one of the most photographed spots in the park.
5
Free time and lunch in Estes Park
On the way out
Enjoy lunch and a walk through downtown Estes Park, browse the shops, and watch for the elk that often wander through town in fall.
6
Return to your lodging
When you are ready
Ride home relaxed while your chauffeur handles the drive back.
