Tim, our guide was outstanding. He offered us local history, a some geological information and was over all a very fun, and informative guide. We appreciated all that he did to make our trip very memorable, including serving us strawberries to us at 10,500 ft

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. What an absolutely incredible experience with Mild to Wild Jeep Tours! Our journey from Durango to Silverton was nothing short of spectacular, and our guide, Tim, made it truly unforgettable!

From start to finish, Tim went above and beyond to ensure everyone was comfortable, happy, and having a fantastic time. His attention to detail was exceptional, right down to the thoughtful treats he provided along the way—fresh strawberries, bottled water, freshly baked cookies, and chips!

But what really set this adventure apart were the little excursions off the beaten path. Tim took us on short hikes to breathtaking overlooks and hidden gems we never would have discovered simply driving through the mountains. The scenery was absolutely stunning, and those extra moments made the experience so much more memorable.

Tim struck the perfect balance between adventure, hospitality, and genuine enthusiasm for sharing this beautiful part of Colorado. It felt less like a commercial tour and more like exploring the mountains with a knowledgeable friend who wanted us to experience the very best of the area.

If you’re considering this adventure, DO IT! And if you’re lucky enough to have Tim as your guide, you’re in for a real treat!

Five stars all the way! Huge kudos to Tim and Mild to Wild for an extraordinary day in the San Juan Mountains!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. A fabulous day hosted by our delightful tour guide/driver Tim, & wonderful to not  have had to drive ourselves. Tim was very engaging, very informed & with good humor.  SO many fascinating facts we'd never have gotten from guidebooks alone, great pointers & occasional stops along the way for breathtaking vistas & leg stretches.  A generous lunch spread for us & delivered us into the capable National Park Service host for our Palace tour section.  Stunning views, reasonable pitstops, thoughtful provision of photo ops, water & rain ponchos we needed.  Worked with a day of clouds, rain, sleet , snow & sun most capably & with alacrity.  10 Star review!!

From start to finish, Tiernay set the standard for our backcountry adventure. Her deep knowledge of the park’s geology, history, and hidden pockets made our trip a much better experience than if we would have done it on our own. She navigated the terrain with absolute confidence and set my wife’s mind at ease since she and her brother were nervous about driving on drop offs.
Beyond the technical trail expertise, Tiernay brings infectious energy and a fun experience. She did put up with our antics and matched our energy wich sealed the deal. 😁
An essential 5-star experience in Moab.
Thank you Tiernay.
