Your Itinerary

Pikes Peak - America's Mountain

During our tour of Pikes Peak, we will be making multiple stops at points of interest on our way to the top of the Peak and brand new, state of the art Summit House at 14,115 ft of elevation! Look out for bigfoot!

Admission Included

Bigfoot Crossing Sign

At this point in the tour, a sign has been placed "for your safety" as some of the most credible signings of Bigfoot have taken place near the area. Our tour almost always guarantees a sighting and of course, a photo with him!

Crystal Creek Reservoir

(Pass by)

The Crystal Creek Reservoir features the first full look at the entire Pikes Peak mountain set against the body of water. The tour drives directly over the dam of this reservoir which also offers a gift shop, restrooms, and informative plaques for reading about local wildlife and history.

Historic Glen Cove Inn 11,450 ft

The historic Glen Cove Inn is an old ski lodge building which sits just under the timber line along the Pikes Peak Highway. At Glen Cove, you can expect to see the first striking view of the bald top of the mountain, highlighted by snow, most of the year. Also at Glen Cove are the Brake Check station, a gift shop, and restrooms.

Devils Playground

(Pass by)

Once the tour reaches the top of the Switchbacks, we see the rock formation and area known as Devil's Playground. We don't want to spoil the surprise by telling you how it got the name!

Bottomless Pit

The Bottomless Pit is as you would expect! Just below the summit of Pikes Peak, the highway nears a steep cliff you can view from the very edge of the road and look down and out across and expansive scene. This location is a favorite for family photos!

Pikes Peak Center

The Summit House on top of Pikes Peak is a gorgeous, state of the art visitors center. In the Summit House, you can try the famous high-altitude doughnuts, learn about the history of the Peak with the exhibit, get your goodies in the gift shop, and experience work-class views throughout eh giant windows facing toward the east. Outside of the Summit House, you can walk around the Peak and experience 360 degree views that stretch all the way into Kansas and New Mexico. Take a photo at the newly installed Summit sign which boasts 14,115 feet of elevations.

Loved this tour. First, I wasn’t the one driving up to Pikes peak. Second, Jeremiah had lots of info not only about the pikes peak drive, but also some recommendations for the Colorado Springs area in general. And third, the views from the summit were spectacular. Well worth it!

This was simply one of the BEST TOURS we did in our 8 weeks out west! Mark, our guide/driver was extremely knowledgeable and professional of our tour up Pikes Peak and gave us a great history of the area! Weather was with us for fabulous photos all along our route and the summit. Would HIGHLY recommend!

Excellent service our guide Jeremiah was a wealth of knowledge and very attentive to everyone’s needs, would highly recommended this trip up Pike’s Peak everyone in our group was a bit nervous about the trip up they made everyone feel safe and comfortable

Had an amazing time on my tour today! Jeremiah was my driver and tour guide. He is super passionate about the area and his enthusiasm is contagious. He’s also an incredibly safe driver. I’m afraid of heights but had zero concerns and was able to enjoy the scenery. When we would stop, people recognized Jeremiah and the company and several people said “You’re with the best.” I considered taking the cog railway but the comfort of the van was unquestionably more comfortable than other travel types. Highly recommend!

Jeremiah was very knowledgeable and the views were so picturesque. Helen Falls was a nice surprise stop too as well as the drive thru the Broadmoor neighborhood-very pretty.

His driving skills were superb and we give this experience 5 STARS!!

We were thrilled with our tour of Pike’s Peak with Rocky Mountain Ride and are so glad that we did not attempt driving up the mountain ourselves. Lot’s of hairpin turns with no railings. Jeremiah was our driver and he was a very cautious, safe, and patient driver, very personable with a nice sense of humor, and knowledgeable about the mountain. We made stops along the way to take advantage of scenic views, shop, and see things up close. We had the added of bonus of picking up Craig at the top of Pike’s Peak—he is 70 years old and has hiked up the mountains hundreds of times. Craig is an amazingly interesting person and a regularly rides down the mountain on Rocky Mountain ride. He was happy to answer our questions about hiking the mountain. We highly recommend Rocky Mountain Ride and would take additional excursions without hesitation.

This review is for the summit to trailhead shuttle. Brittany was a fabulous host and driver. She knows more about Pikes Peak than most people I know. She gives you a tour on the way down. She provided us with water, Gatorade and snacks for the ride down.
