This is a tour you would want to take with a guide. There is so much to learn about the peolpe and their way of life .
My 16 year old nephew was visiting. I booked this trip because he likes history. Our guide Jay was excellent. He gave us a lot of interesting information about Mesa Verde and kept us very entertained.
The cliff dwellings are something that everyone should see. Very amazing! You do have to walk a lot for the Longhouse tour and if you have problems with vertigo like me it can be kind of scary but it's so worth seeing.
Miles was great. He was knowledgeable and courteous. We had a medical problem with my wife and he was willing to assist in any way possible. This was not his responsibility but we are grateful. He should be commended for outstanding customer service. Jim
