Guided Overland Trips in Colorado

• For the guided trips we take a 50% non-refundable deposit when you book. The remaining balance is due 2 weeks before. If you cancel less than 2 weeks before the departure date, you will receive no refund.

• We need to have 2 guest vehicles booked to make the trip feasible. We reserve the right to cancel a trip if it doesn’t get enough guests. If this happens we will work hard to provide a good alternative. We can try to rebook you to another guided trip or keep the dates and send you on a self-guided trip with a route planned by us. If none of that works we will give you a full refund.

• We reserve the right to cancel due to weather. The weather is usually not a problem and we have lots of gear to help keep people warm and dry but under severe circumstances we may cancel due to environmental conditions.

We highly recommend you buy trip insurance for the reasons mentioned above in the cancelation policy. You can purchase trip insurance through us at 6.5% of the trip cost. Alternatively there are many other trip insurance providers.

• Yes we do allow that but we will check to see the vehicle meets trip requirements. Before confirming your booking we will ask for more information and photos of your vehicle.

• You will be asked to carry some group gear in your vehicle so don’t show up with it full of stuff!

• We love camping with families but for these trips we ask that very young kids stay at home. Kids 8 and older are allowed.

• We do have some trips for adults only. Minimum age on those is 18.

• You are welcome to bring your own snacks and soft drinks. We HIGHLY discourage bottled water, and we will provide plenty of fresh rocky mountain drinking water.

• Personal food for meals needs to be cleared with us beforehand. We will try and accommodate most food allergies in our meal planning so you shouldn’t need to bring your own food.

• You can bring additional beer and wine if you choose. We will be providing a cocktail each night and then 1-2 beers/glasses of wine each night per person. Excessive drinking however will not be tolerated.

• We will all meet at our Denver shop at 8:30am on the day the trip starts.

• If you are flying in, we STRONGLY recommend flying in the day before. Make a day of it by taking the train from the airport to downtown Denver, staying at a hotel and then taking a Lyft to our shop in the morning.

• We know going to the bathroom in the woods can be a little nerve-racking for some so we try to make it as comfortable as possible. We use portable flush toilets that are set up inside privacy tents at the edge of camp. You can do it!
