    Asked on April 16th, 2023

    For adults with limited walking ability, not with canes or walkers, but guests who can walk for only a limited amount of time; how likely are they to enjoy this bus tour. Cobble stone streets and lengthy guided tours may be complicated. Your feedback is most important to us.

This may not be the most suitable for traveler with canes or walkers due to possible level of walking since one thing that includes tour to Aspen snowmass mountain.

    Rose

    Asked on April 28th, 2022

    I am trying to connect a visit to Silverthorne for a wedding on August 13th with a tour of Colorado. Your Welcome to Colorado sounds as though it may fit in but it would depend on travel between Silverthorne and Denver. I am not yet sure what time the wedding is being held on the 13th but may be able to get back to Denver that evening. Failing that it would be early morning on the 14th. What time would you be leaving Denver on the 14th?

    Tour Details
    Transport
    • TrafalgarOperatorWritten April 2022

      The welcome reception on 13th isn't until around 18:00pm, if you can get there for then that's great, if not don't worry. The group would be departing Denver after breakfast, so likely around 9:00am. I can always reach out to our Operations team and ask them to confirm the specific departure time from Denver for you.

    Asked on March 5th, 2022

    Have the masks mandate been lifted for your tours "Welcome to Colorado" summer of 2022?

    Tour Details
    Travel Support
    • TrafalgarOperatorWritten March 2022

      We have not lifted the mask mandates on the coaches as of yet. Out operations teams are continually looking at making protocol modifications to ensure the health and wellbeing of all travelers. While off the coach the masks would only be required based on the business or local mandates.
