The staff were all so friendly, and you could tell they knew their stuff and also just loved their job. It was truly a blast! I walked away with quite a bit of new tea knowledge. Excellent vibes all around. The hippie founders of Celestial Seasonings would be proud. And the GIFT SHOP. I think I blacked out. From every Celestial Seasonings tea you could think of to the cutest merch, there's something for everyone. I was glad the tour was so cheap, because I could really enjoy myself. Slap the sleepy time tea bear on anything and I will certainly buy it.

Show up early and hit the sampling bar before the tour starts. They have a bunch of teas brewed and ready to drink, and you get to go back for more after the tour ends. I tried way too many before they called us over for the 9 minute intro video, which covers the company history, how their teas get made, and the safety rules for walking through an active production plant. The mint room is the highlight. FDA rules mean you cannot step inside anymore, but you stand at the entrance and the smell hits you instantly. Back away whenever you want. Full sensory experience without the headache. Staff were warm and genuinely into their jobs. They shared fun facts, answered every question, and made it feel personal instead of rehearsed. The gift shop is also a steal, with boxes around $3.75 and seasonal flavors stocked year-round. Go on a weekday if you want smaller groups. Bring a bag for the gift shop, because you will buy more tea than you planned.

Our tour guide, Jayce, added to the vibe of the spooky evening; he was SO into it... incredibly knowledgeable about the area, the tales as well as the history; his storytelling sent chills down my spine as we walked from mansion to mansion. As a Denver Native, I not only learned a bit of Colorado's sordid past, but got a good fright as well. Highly recommend!

Showed up expecting a saccharine environment where gold was last mined 80 + years ago and the…read moreequipment resting against the walls was just for show. Boy was I wrong, and so happy to be wrong. This is a legit operating goldmine, where real pickaxes swing everyday and real gold is extracted from the many thick veins shown to you on the tour. The guide was also one of the several miners who run the place and his willingness to be patient and share the history of the mine and industry made this one of the most enjoyable tours I've ever been on. And I've been some weird places. The guide let my kids swing the pickaxe and keep the nuggets they loosed from the wall, he ran most of the equipment and explained their history, and you could tell he respected his craft. This place is, and feels, truly authentic. It's worthy of being named a destination.

There were dozens of excellent photo opportunities, and we visited many of the parks most famous landmarks. We had the pleasure of seeing dozens of elk, mule deer, marmots, and even a pika!

If you have a small group looking for a convenient way to see much of RMNP, I highly recommend Colorado Sightseer.

Now that is what I call service! This tour was worth every penny! I can't wait to do another trip with Will.

Yet they continue to do so. So when asked if delivery was satisfactory I say Andy. Do they listen apparently NOT. This time I could have easily driven over the package. There wasn't even an attempt to put the package out of the way. It was simply tossed haphazardly into the garage. Now, even when delivered to the front porch packages are all too frequently left on the door mat when there is a 2-foot wide brick pillar to hide packages behind. I KNOW drivers are u see the gun time wise but good grief look at the delivery instructions AS WELL AS the physical location itself. Ridiculous !

While we enjoyed good weather and the freedom and time to reflect on their Rendezvous with Destiny, they had faced torrential rain and life-threatening obstacles as they ran towards the artillery exploding around them and bullets flying at them; many cutting into their brave young bodies and souls. Though our experience on the beaches was very different from the Allied Forces, Brian DeToy summoned his unique ability to take us back in time to imagine what it was like for them. His military experience, research, education and love of history equip him to set the stage in every facet and mood and bring it to life. One place in particular where he did an exceptional job was upon entering the American Cemetery. As visitors were nonchalantly streaming in, Brian pulled us to the side and spoke solemn, focused words that were appropriate for revering the site and honoring, in a personal way, those who had lost their lives and were buried there. It will always be with me. Sheryl's many strengths include her meticulous administrative and organizational skills, as well as graciousness and the patience of a saint. She handled every detail beautifully - and there were many! This was truly a life-changing trip for us - our favorite - the trip of a lifetime!

Having just returned from Essential History Expeditions' February 2023 Vietnam tour, I cannot say…read moreenough good things about it! As a retired Army general, I was hoping to better understand the Vietnam War, which shaped my training and the Army which I served in from 1979-2016. I also looked forward to viewing my Dad's experience as a military advisor in 1962-63 & 1968-69 in a new light after seeing the terrain. Brian and Sheryl delivered that and more. Our tour traced the major political and military struggles of both the French and American wars, and helped to understand the Vietnamese point of view at every turn. Their approach, which incorporated both Brian's historical expertise (honed by his PhD and 12 years teaching at West Point) along with assigning voluntary "character backgrounds" presented by the tour participants, encouraged not only study in preparation beforehand but also a collaborative discussion of the issues in the long struggles of the Vietnamese people. Sheryl's precise planning and use of 5-star accommodations made the trip luxurious throughout, with meals, 4 internal flights, 12 bus trips, and a 2-day opulent boat excursion into Halong Bay all handled seamlessly. One of the best travel experiences of my life!
