WildSide 4x4 Tours : Estes Park Colorado Off Roading
Take a Colorado Ride on the Wild Side
While a Colorado car camping trip is prized for the beautiful and sometimes rugged hiking opportunities, there’s another option. In Estes Park, just outside the Rocky Mountain National Park, the 50 Campfires Team discovered Wild Side 4x4 Tours. A bit of research revealed they offer something for off-road enthusiasts at every level of adventure.
Wild Side Tour Company is a family business built on living outdoor dreams. They are proud to be the only company within 100 miles who has the permit to offer both on-road and off-road tours in the Roosevelt National Forest. Their claim is tours from “mild to wild” including photography tours in Rocky Mountain National Park, on-road and off-road tours in the national forest, and a truly wild level rock climbing and roller coaster tour.
Wild Side’s general tour season begins on May 15 each year, but starting in November they also offer winter tours in both the national forest and rocky mountain park. They can accommodate all sizes of groups from couples to large family or corporate gatherings.
One of their unique attractions is a private viewing tower modeled after a fire watch tower. It has opportunities for both indoor and rooftop views that can extend as far as 150 miles on clear days. The guides are well-educated on the areas in which they travel and do all they can to create lifetime experiences for Wild Side’s guests.
Wild Side is a perennial choice for both the list of top tour companies in Estes Park as well as Top 10 Things to do in Colorado.

Should I tip my Tour Guide?
If you feel that your guide has made a truly memorable event for you and your family then a tip is a wonderful way to say thank you. The tips are truly appreciated and allow them to do the work they love so much. Amount is ultimately up to you, but most people use restaurant standards as a benchmark.
What about rain?
The tours run rain or shine. The only time they cancel a tour is for hail, ice, or thick fog for park tours. The Park Tour Trucks have zip down windows for inclement weather. The off-road trucks most are full open top trucks. For inclement weather they provide full-body suites called Frog Togs for wind and waterproof comfort.
