Manitou Springs Trip Overview
Private tours through winter! Is the Cog Railway a little crowded for you? Book with us and the tour is reserved for your group!
Open Jeeps got you a little leary? Our Jeeps are enclosed and toasty warm on the mountain!
Excellent Jeep tour of Pikes Peak. Enjoy awesome views of the Rocky Mountain scenery on this tour. We depart from near Manitou Springs and then drive to the summit. We make stops on the way up and back down. We strive to engage in conversation with our guests. It’s not just a “here’s stuff to know” tour.

Leave the driving to someone else on this excursion so you can enjoy the scenery and not worry about driving.
We love telling people of things to do and places to eat in the area. We want you to enjoy your stay as much as your tour (well, almost as much as your tour).

Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Pikes Peak – America’s Mountain, 5069 Pikes Peak Highway, Cascade, CO
This is an amazing experience, with views that defy language. Pikes Peak Highway is 19 miles of paved road to the summit. There are many attractions we stop at and take pictures, and let the views soak in.
Once we get above the treeline, it’s like a different world. Incredible rock structures and views of distant mountain ranges.
Once we reach the summit, we will give you a little tour of the area, tell you some of the things you seeing, and buy you some donuts at the Summit Complex. On a clear day, you can see 5 states from here.
After that, we will leave you to explore on your own for a bit. Food and souvenirs are available at the Summit Complex. We also provide snacks and water for the trip.
This is an experience you won’t forget.
Duration: 3 hours
Pass By: Manitou Springs, CO 80829, USA
As we return to Colorado Springs, we like to take a brief drive through Manitou Springs. It’s a small and eclectic mountain town. There’s lots of shopping, restaurants, and more. You’ll want to spend some time here on your trip.
Stop At: Pikes Peak Summit House, Cascade, CO 80809, USA
The Summit Complex has great views through a large glass window, but also a platform that nearly encircles the whole thing. We buy you some world famous donuts. Drinks, food, and souvenirs are here as well.
This is a newly built complex that replaces the old Summit House.
Duration: 30 minutes
Stop At: Glen Cove, Summit Cove, CO 80435, USA
Glen Cove is an old building, once a place for people to sleep, but now a gift shop. It has some great views of the mountains that you’ll see more of on the way up.
Duration: 10 minutes
Stop At: Crystal Creek Reservoir, Colorado, USA
Crystal Creek Reservoir is a gift shop, but a great place for pictures of a lake and Pikes Peak in the distance.
Duration: 15 minutes
Stop At: Bottomless Pit, Colorado 80809, USA
Bottomless Pit is an interesting part of the mountain. A near shear drop off. It is a hike to get there, and at this altitude some people opt out. Great views from this area as well.
Another great place for pictures.
Duration: 15 minutes
