We started our day a little bit earlier than planned because our guide Mike wanted to give us more opportunity to see animals while they were moving around the park. We enjoyed our time with him and would definitely recommend doing this tour. He took time to explain a lot of things, share history and information that was important to learn about the park and the wildlife there. He was also willing to take plenty of pictures!

Dave was a great guide. He modified the tour to give us exactly what we were looking to see! We enjoyed his company and knowledge. His photos he shared with us were outstanding! Thanks Dave!

I wish I could give this more than 5 stars! This was, by far, the best experience! We were scheduled for a 3/4 day trip. When we arrived at 6am for our start time, which was personalized for us, as that is when most of the animals are starting to move for their day, we met the most amazing guy.... Dave!! From start to finish, Dave made sure that we were seeing, doing, enjoying everything we came to see and do in NMNP! And boy did we and then some and even more! He made our trip so special. For an Aussie haha he was super knowledgeable of the park, the animals, the history of the area and more. We went and saw things you don't get to see by just driving through the park. If you truly want to see RMNP, book a trip with RMNPhotograher and ask for Dave! I'm sure all guides are amazing, but our experience with Dave was over the top incredible and I would want everyone to have the same experience. Brad, the owner was so easy to work with to book the trip from the very first email I sent requesting information (which was answered in less than 2 hours) to the final phone call to book the trip, Brad was super enjoyable to work with! I can't express enough, if visiting RMNP and you truly want to SEE the park and the wildlife...give them a call and get it scheduled. Its personalized to what you want to see and do... and the bonus... they have professional photography backgrounds, fancy camera equipment and will take some incredible photos and videos for you and airdrop them to you before you even get out of the vehicle at the end of the trip! I just can't say enough good things about our experience! (and we've travelled all over the country and world and this is by far a top 3 experience as far as a guided adventure)

We were so pleased with our tour and very surprised that we were able to go over the top on Fall River Road. The scenery and colors were just AMAZING! Our guide Mike had lots of information on the park that we hadn't heard before. He took us to an AWESOME place for lunch in Grand Lake and knew some of the best spots to see wildlife. We would highly recommend this tour it is worth EVERY penny!

Dave did such a great job. He has so much knowledge of the history of the park. We are very happy we got paired with him. He showed us beautiful areas of the park and helped me take great pictures. He didn't stop there. He told me that I could text him the rest of the trip here if I needed help with anything.

Outstanding! Our guide, Dave did a great job of showing us some amazing sights in RMNP. The added bonus was all the history he shared about the park’s beginnings and major events like the great flood in the 1980’s and the almost devastating fire in 2020. It was a wonderful way to start our visit to Estes Park. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

Dave was an amazing guide! He is a professional photographer and really knows the park. We had lots of great pictures!!! He made the day for us!

Loved the scenery, history, photography tips, and company. Dave is very interesting, a fountain of information AND a great driver on these mountain roads. Little luck with wildlife this time but suggestions for finding them later in the evening were spot on! Thanks for a beautiful day!

What a wonderful experience we had last weekend with Brad and Dave of RMNPhotographer tours! We booked two half day tours (Lakes and Meadows and Mountain to Sky) and were able to really explore the beauty, wildlife, geology, and history of RMNP, thanks to the passion, knowledge, and enthusiasm of Brad and Dave. Brad took us on a lovely hike that was perfect for our 6 year old son (and that we loved too!) and gave us the chance to experience incredible wildlife viewing of the elk rut. Dave took us on an exciting walk (safely and respectfully) tracking moose. We saw scat, tracks, and even beds where the elk has slept, which was almost more exciting than actually seeing moose themselves. He totally engaged our curious kid and was amazingly generous with his time and deep knowledge of nature and the park. Between the two tours we were able to make the absolute most of our short time at the park. Brad and Dave know every inch of the park and were able to share the best experiences in a really seamless and organized way. As newcomers to the area we could never have managed to see and experience as much on our own, and it was fantastic to have them drive the car so we could all relax and enjoy. I highly recommend this tour company!

I just completed a 3/4-day tour with Dave S. He was a superb tour guide who made my tour amazing. As a photographer, I said I wanted to shoot moose, big horn sheep, elk, and wildlife pictures. Dave treated this as a personal challenge and made it come true. Even though I had booked a 3/4-day tour, Dave would not let me go home unfulfilled. He spent much more time so that I was able to finally capture images of moose, which were fleetingly elusive that day. In the end, I got images of all the animals I requested. Even though I had my own equipment, Dave had amazing equipment like a tripod-mounted spotting binocular and a Swaroski lens and scope (that got me closer than my 600mm lens), which enhanced my wildlife search and viewing experience. Dave is a passionate outdoorsman, photographer, and tour guide who was able to make my trip perfect. Even if you are not a photographer, Dave has the knowledge, passion, and experience to create a tour that will satify your needs. I totally recommend this tour. It made my day in Rocky Mountain NP INCREDIBLE and was totally worth every cent I spent. Thank you Dave S.!!!

We met our guide outside Estes Park. Thus began a tour that we will never forget. Dave S. Brought the Rocky Mountain National Park to life. He was determined that we would experience the area that he loved to the fullest And we did. He asked us what we wanted to see and experience during the tour and then fulfilled our expectations and then went beyond. I was so excited about a photography tour. I had done tours but Dave S. Taught, shared information about the park and fulfilled all my wishlist. THANKYOU Dave. And RMNPhotographt Tours.

I signed up for a tour the day before. I was contacted by text with the meeting time and location a few hours after I signed up. I replied to the text and explained what I was looking for and Brad was very accommodating. He changed our start time to be better suited for what I was hoping to accomplish. The morning of our tour Brad was prompt, took the driver's seat, and off we went. Brad is an encyclopedia of information about the area. We went out of his normal routine and focused on locating wildlife to photograph. As we drove through each area, he sighted dates and the history about it. Brad knew about all of the nooks and crannies of where to find wildlife to photograph. Because of the unusual heat, we had some difficulties finding anything in his usual locations, but he did not disappoint! We eventually stumbled across a couple of bull elks and then had a couple of bull moose sneak up on us. As we went, I learned about the spots to visit in the future. He allowed me the time I needed at each location to get the shots I wanted. He brought his camera and shot along side me. Brad was very personable, I felt like I was with a friend.

This was a great tour. Dave was super knowledgeable about the park and took us to a bunch of amazing spots. We were interested in seeing wildlife so it was very helpful that he is a wildlife photographer. Highly recommend.

We booked this for my family but unfortunately I wasn’t feeling well and stayed back at our AirBNB. Dave (tour guide and photographer) took care of my family who had an amazing time. They got to see multiple elk herds, marmots and snow. Dave was fantastic with my family and my son who has ASD. He was patient and took care of my family. Wonderful tour and I’m extremely jealous I missed out!!

My family and I had a great time and enjoyed our time with our guide, Marcos. We also had the privilege of meeting Brad that morning during coffee and morning huddle to discuss our day plans. This company was prompt and courteous. We got to see a number of sights in the park and Marcos was very knowledgeable about the sights we traveled to. We also got to see a lot of the wildlife that RMNP had to offer and with Marcos's guidance learned some tips and techniques for better photography. I highly recommend this company and Marcos for a tour. Take it early in your trip and then you will have a good foundation to help in planning for the days after.
