The scenic Pikes Peak and Garden of the Gods, along with five military installations and dozens of corporations and private companies make Colorado Springs a destination for tourists and business travelers alike. This mix of beauty and business brings in visitors from all over the world.
Looking to the west, you will catch glimpses of Pikes Peak and other surrounding peaks. Head just a few miles east of the downtown, and you begin to feel like you are in the plains of Kansas. The diverse landscape and environment in Colorado Springs provides a little something for everyone.
Hire a Local Tour Guide
With a population of over 600,000, Colorado Springs feels more like a small city. Since the town is so spread out with limited public transportation, it can be a challenge to see everything. Visitors from out of town may not know where to go or have the time to figure out how to get there.
If you are looking for a personal tour of the city and the surrounding region, why not hire a tour guide? I am not talking about a tour that involves climbing into a city bus and putting on a set of headphones. How about a tour more personal than that?
Colorado Personal Tour Guide is based out of Colorado Springs, but the owner and operator, Natallia, is willing to provide transportation and tours throughout the region, including Manitou Springs, Canon City, Cripple Creek, and even the ski resorts.
After meeting with Natallia, I learned that Colorado Personal Tour Guide is the only company that provides personal individual and group tours in Colorado Springs. Not only does she offer custom packages, but tours in Russian, French, Mandarin, Japanese, or Spanish are also available.
Colorado Personal Tour Guide Includes Transportation
Colorado Personal Tour Guide will pick you up from your hotel or wherever you are staying and take you where you want to go.
Why is this important?
- With the exception of a few cities, most of Colorado is lacking in public transportation. If you are visiting from a place where public transportation is the norm, you may be frustrated to learn that a car is a necessity to get around.
- Many of the roads can be treacherous near the mountains. Visitors coming from sea level or who are used to city grid blocks may have a hard time driving around Colorado.
- It is also possible that some travelers may not have a rental car, leaving them stuck without transportation.
- Lastly, if you are on a vacation or in Colorado for a short business trip, you probably want to sit back and enjoy yourself. Getting out a map, renting a car, and trying to figure out where to go may take up valuable time that you don't have.
Whether you are a solo traveler, on a business trip, visiting family, or looking for a group tour, contact Natallia to schedule your trip. Colorado is a beautiful state with a lot of places to see. Why not have a local show you around?
