The Colorado Tourism Office hosted five tour operators product managers on an exclusive trip to experience Colorado's captivating autumn colours by jeep, Segway, foot, rail and on horseback. Pictured here in the Garden of Gods in Colorado Springs, the group defied gravity whilst enjoying memorable views of one of nature's greatest treasures. Following a visit to the charming mountain town of Crested Butte they also relived the past on a spectacular journey on board the Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad, rated the most scenic train ride in the USA. In Mesa Verde National Park, they explored ancient cliff dwellings of the Anasazi Indians and tasted buffalo and elk at the award-winning Metate Room. Grand Junction was the final highlight of the round trip with the group enjoying an outdoor breakfast at the Colorado National Monument, followed by an authentic western horseback adventure through Unaweep Canyon and the Uncompahgre Plateau.
On the trip were Sarah Punter - AmeriCan & Worldwide Travel, Louise Heatley - Travelsphere/Page & Moy/Just You, Eva Towli - Funway Holidays, Michele Anderson - Sunway Holidays (Ireland) and Emma Jordan from Titan Travel.
