For our 30th anniversary, my husband and I visited Estes Park, and the 4x4 tour with Sam (known as The Wolf) was the highlight of our trip. From the friendly reservation process to the warm welcome from the owners upon arrival, everyone was pleasant, humorous, and inviting. This experience felt like being with a family that you love spending time with. I highly suggest this tour company to anyone. They allow you to customize your adventure completely. If you prefer to linger at a scenic spot, that's fine; if you want a bumpy ride or to go slow, that's also okay. You can enjoy music or trivia as you like. They cater to both small and large groups, capable of accommodating up to 150 participants, as Sam mentioned. They have exclusive access to certain locations, and the lookout tower offers the best views we encountered in Estes Park. If it were possible, I would give them more than 5 stars.
If you think hot dogs, s'mores, and off-roading create a chaotic mix, add an excellent playlist and a breathtaking sunset, and you have an unforgettable tour experience. We opted for a private tour, and from the start, it was evident that every detail had been carefully planned. From the equipment to the food, everything was excellent. The music wasn't just background—it set the mood perfectly for every twist and turn, creating a thrilling yet nostalgic atmosphere filled with smoky sweetness. As for our guide, Sam was exceptional. Instead of feeling like a scripted tour, he created a warm environment that transformed us from strangers into a close-knit group. He expertly combined stories, safety, and humor, making our experience feel personal and joyful. Yes, we definitely embraced the spirit and ka-kawed together—loudly and without any hesitation. The sunset was the perfect conclusion—a truly soul-soothing moment that capped off a day that felt unforgettable. If you're seeking a tour that artfully combines adventure, comfort, and connection, this one truly delivers. Thanks for the incredible memories.
This was my second experience with Wildside 4x4 Tours, and it was just as exciting as the first. Sam proved to be an exceptional guide with his entertaining "dad" jokes, impressive driving abilities, and top-notch dinner service of hot dogs and s'mores. I highly recommend bringing your family and friends for a fantastic time.
Leo made for an excellent guide. This tour exceeded my expectations! We enjoyed off-roading, took in stunning views from the fire tower, relaxed by the fire, and looked for shooting stars. Highly recommend booking this tour.
My wife and I had a wonderful experience on this tour. Our guide, Theress, made it both informative and enjoyable, exceeding our expectations. The views and excitement were absolutely top-notch.
What an incredible experience! Our guide, CE, had a wealth of knowledge about both the terrain and the stars, making the adventure not only thrilling but also educational. This was the most enjoyable time we've ever had in Estes Park.
Booking this tour online was a breeze. Our guide, Royce, was amazing! He had an excellent playlist, was very knowledgeable, shared some great jokes, and was a warm and genuine individual. He created a beautiful campfire as well. I would highly recommend this tour.
Our experience on the tour was fantastic! CE, our guide, was incredibly knowledgeable and friendly. It's clear that he and the rest of the team are passionate about their work and enjoy what they do. We are eager to return to Estes Park for another tour, hopefully one focused on astronomy with CE!
If you're considering a 4x4 tour in Colorado, this is the one to choose. And if you haven't planned one, it's time to rethink your itinerary. The ride was both exciting and enjoyable, with stunning views from the tower. Our guide was personable, knowledgeable, and great with the children on the tour. The marshmallow tour was a fantastic experience, taking us to a beautiful spot during sunset, where we enjoyed a campfire with s'mores and hot dogs before descending the trail at night, creating unforgettable memories. My son and I explored Colorado for a week, filled with amazing activities and breathtaking scenery, but this tour was definitely the highlight of our trip.
This was an incredible experience and a definite highlight of our trip to Estes Park. CE was an outstanding tour guide who went above and beyond to ensure we all had a fantastic time. Thanks to Courtney for suggesting the off-road tour. Our group of seven had so much fun and will certainly return in the future.
