A Little Leadville Advice: Mountain weather has a mind of its own! Come prepared for sunshine, wind, chilly temperatures, and the occasional surprise shower. Most importantly, bring your curiosity, sense of adventure, and a willingness to have fun!

Are the eBike and walking tours OK for beginners?

Absolutely YES! 

🚴 eBikes are beginner-friendly and ridiculously fun! If you can ride a regular bike, you can ride an eBike. The electric assist makes hills feel smaller, longer rides feel easier, and the fun factor go through the roof! No experience with eBikes? No problem! We'll show you the ropes before we roll. Just bring your sense of adventure!

Is there an age requirement?

🎉Adventure Has No Age Limit… Well, Almost! 

Most of our tours are designed for adventurers ages 18 and up. Some of our walking tours explore a little of Colorado’s wilder and naughtier history, while others are strictly for the 21+ crowd. Be sure to check the age requirements for your specific tour before joining the fun!

Where do tours meet?

📍Every Great Adventure Starts Somewhere! 

Our tours explore different places, so there's no one-size-fits-all meeting spot! Each adventure has its own designated starting and finishing location. Be sure to check your specific tour details so you know exactly where to show up for the fun!

What happens if the weather is bad?

🌦️Bad Weather? That's Just Colorado Showing Off! 

A little rain, snow, wind, or chilly mountain air won't stop our adventures! We don't cancel tours just because Mother Nature gets a little dramatic. However, when lightning shows up uninvited, we hit the pause button until it's safe to continue. Dress for the weather, bring your adventurous spirit, and remember, some of the best stories start with, "You won't believe the weather we had!".

Are dogs allowed on the tours?

🐶 Can My Dog Come on the Tour? 

We love dogs, but our tours are for humans only! Sorry, Fido you'll have to sit this adventure out. We promise not to tell you how much fun we had! 

Cancellation policy on tours?

😎What’s Your Cancellation Policy? Glad You Asked! 

We get it, life happens! Plans change, alarms don't go off, and sometimes the dog really does eat your itinerary. 

Here's the deal: Cancellations made within 24 hours of your scheduled tour are non-refundable. Our guides have cleared their calendars, the adventure is ready, and your spot has been saved just for you. So if you need to bail, give us more than 24 hours' notice. No hard feelings, just fewer sad tour guides!
