Things to do in Aspen, Colorado (CO): The Best Tours

April 30, 2022 Terina Blouin

Everyone knows Aspen as a top-notch winter resort town. But outdoor enthusiasts will enjoy it in the summer, too, when the mountains become a perfect setting for hiking, biking and horseback tours. Some may be surprised to find it’s a top romance destination—but after all that outdoor exercise, who wouldn’t want to repair to a luxurious hotel room or a cozy, firelit bar?

A couple of our friends had issues with their skis on the second day of rental. They sent someone out to fix the issue. Apparently one of our friends was improperly fitted with equipment too big for her. The boots had a hidden clasp the loosened during transit. Why didn’t they tell us about this hidden clasp in the beginning? One of our friends who has skied multiple times in the past continue to have issues and ended up not being able to ski. We have been trying to get a hold of the owner about a partial refund. Just a refund for friend on the second day who was unable to ski. We’ve called a couple of times and also emailed. The staff had been courteous and told us they would have the owner call us back. This business owner does not care about his customers so take your money elsewhere!

My husband and I took the walking tour last night. Dean was an awesome storyteller; we’re in our honeymoon and thought, why not take advantage of a ghost tour. We learned so much about Aspen and local supernatural history/legend. Well worth the 9 degree weather!! We love mysteries, stories of hauntings and this tour delivered!!!
