Honestly, a funny thing to say about a bus trip but absolutely had a blast! Was a great trip with a great driver

Our driver was excellent: he gave us a free guided tour of the Rockies, loads of useful local knowledge and catered to the diverse needs of the clients. He even added an extra stop to drop me off directly at my hotel, saving me a 20 minute walk with heavy bags. Would absolutely recommend this Sundog, and will use again.

The driver was very kind - he helped load our bags and dropped us off directly outside where we were staying despite us not booking that. The bus itself had comfortable seats, but due to road conditions (icy) the journey was very bumpy.
