Perfect way to see the Garden of Gods!
Michelle_M, October 2026
We had a wonderful experience on our Jeep tour through Garden of the Gods! Our guide was incredibly informative and did a great job sharing the history and highlights of the area. We especially loved that it was a small-group tour, which made the experience feel more personal and enjoyable. The Jeep was very comfortable, and the open-air design made it easy to take in the incredible scenery and get great views of all the sights. He knew exactly where to stop to make the most of the tour and was so helpful at the end with recommendations for places to eat and other things to see in the area. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Garden of the Gods!

Girls trip
Lori_K, October 2026
The tour was good. The tour guide drove too fast to really take photos. He was informative but not real friendly. Would still recommend to others.
Response from the operator · buggytoursllcmanitou Hi Lori we are happy you thought the tour was good and you would recommend it to others but sorry you felt the guide drove too fast and wasn't friendly. I've never heard these negative comments before and always have great feedback about our guide. We always drive slow on the tour and stop at many places to get out and take pictures as well. We drive so slow that we have many people behind us get mad and yelling and beeping at us to go faster. I guess it's a fine line too sometimes we can't stop at certain places on the drive especially if there is alot of traffic or no parking. The time really to take pics is when we stop and get out at all the beautiful vistas, we cannot hold up traffic or it becomes dangerous, like stopping in the middle of the road to take a pic b/c you see something isn't always a good idea and we have to follow the park rules. The driver said he did take the time to stop at many places for you all and take lots of pics for you too!
