We were fortunate to have a beautiful day on the mountains. It was made even better by our guide Kid. Funny, attentive, and he all around made this a best experience. Memories that will last forever and pictures, so many pictures. Kid orchestrated a tour for the ages.

While the tour itself was fine and well-planned, the sheer number of people they allow up to the top at the same time was terrible. We couldn't go anywhere, we got pushed and shoved into and out of elevators, and we wanted to just cut it short and go home before we got hurt. The tour was fine, I guess, but there is no way we would go back due to the crowds alone.

Mr. Kid was our tour guide and he took such good care of our group. It was a holiday weekend so everything was very crowded but he worked so hard making sure we were all okay and that we were treated very well. I’m so glad I picked the whole experience. I enjoyed everything we did. Mr Kid knows how to have a good time!

An amazing day trip, tour guide very friendly and knowledgeable, kept us informed and made us laugh. There was enough time at the top to see everything. A great trip even though it was too snowy to see anything!
