Your journey takes you to the top of Loveland Pass, where you’ll stand at 11,990 feet on the Continental Divide with sweeping views of the Rocky Mountain landscape in every direction. From there, the tour winds down to the stunning shores of Dillon Reservoir before continuing to Sapphire Point Overlook, one of the area’s most breathtaking vantage points. The experience wraps up in historic Frisco, a charming former mining town with deep roots in Colorado’s high-country past — all enjoyed in the comfort of a small, guided group. In Frisco, guests will have the opportunity to stop for a small snack.
