Review of RMNPhotographer’s half-day Rocky Mountain tour, with Trail Ridge Road, wildlife stops, pricing, vehicle details, and practical tips.

“This is a truly remarkable experience; we would give it 10 stars if it were possible.. Our tour was with Dave and he delivered beyond any expectations. Noting that we had perfect weather and started early in the day, we were able to see multiple moose, numerous elk (one of which was no more than 10 feet from us), deer, and marmots. As the description of the tour details, the tour guide drives your vehicle. Dave drove our car with skill, and we were never concerned about the vehicle, even on non-paved roads. It's clear Dave has a passion for wildlife photography and spends considerable time in the park. He…”

Review of Kuala Lumpur’s private six-hour photo tour, with Petronas Towers, KL Tower, temples, museums, hotel pickup, and guide tips.

“Thanks to Mr. Jacop we had a great day in KL. Mr. Jacop was very early that day organizing the tickets for the Twin Towers and sharp on time he was picking us up. Based on his knowledge in culture and history he gave a very exiting briefing while driving to the first attraction. Some others followed with an intermediate stop at a batik store. As the final highlight we were at the Twin Towers which are very spectacular. This tour guided by Mr. Jacop is a must have to get introduced to KL.”
