We were outfitted with suits, helmets and goggles. Explanation of snow mobiles was easy. The views were amazing and the hot cider and chocolate at the yurt were yummy.

PLEASE review your sale receipt before leaving. Our gratitude was based off the entire sale, which included taxes and accidentals. The gratitude should have only been based on the snowmobile price. This company is racking up on extra funds if you do not bring it to their attention. Once you do bring it to their attention, they have no problem returning the funds to your card.

We had an awesome tour guide named Greg who made our group laugh the entire time. He was great/safe with the kids in our group, but also kept up an exciting speed for the more daring snow mobilers. He also took us off the beaten path onto single trails that cut through the beautiful alpine forest. Definitely ask for GREG, he’s the best! In the middle of your excursion, the guide takes the group to a “yurt” that’s warm and full of snacks and drinks like coffee and hot coco. I can’t recommend this trip enough! It’s a must-do for anyone vacationing in Vail or the surrounding mountains. read less

Our guide, Nathan, did a great job of explaining to the whole group of six (all first-timers) how to operate the snowmobiles and how to communicate with one another before we left.

Nathan truly maximized every minute of our two hours to make sure we had a great experience. I was very nervous to do this, but now look forward to going back and snowmobiling again. read less

The entire operation runs so well and all of the guides are professional and enthusiastic.

Chuck picked us up five minutes early at our hotel in Avon. He was friendly and chatted with us on the drive to base camp.

Once you arrive at base camp, all the guides work together to get you suited up in the warm-weather gear. They had positive attitudes and gave our little boy extra attention.

Beau was our tour guide and he led us through trails that had one jaw-dropping vista after another. The group stopped for refreshments in a cozy yurt before moving along again.

There was a minor hiccup in that one of our group had a “check engine” light flash on. Beau was on top of it, radioed for help, and within two minutes a replacement snowmobile appeared and we continued on our way.

I can’t say enough about this company. It wasn’t cheap, but the tour was worth every penny. I will definitely do it again if we go back to Vail. read less

Boy was my mind blown... right from the start, we are met with a big smile and an ambitious personality none other than Mark Boutin. After he picked us up from the parking lot, no more than 5 seconds in to the shuttle ride, this man who I have never met before in my life made it seem as if I have known him my entire life! Such a personable, happy guy who expresses his love for the outdoors, and has immense passion in his profession. We haven’t even gotten to the tour yet! To start the tour he gives an in depth, fun, yet serious explanation of the machine. Once he assures we have no questions, we are on our way. The beginning of the tour he acquired a feel for the skill level and comfort of our group. Safety being his number one priority, he determines the safest yet most adventurous and beautiful trails to take. He stops at points he knows like the back of his hand that are beautiful and lively. He gives us educational info on the types of wildlife in the area and the tracks they make so that we can define (on our tour) the types of wildlife that has crossed or been through that area. This trip was nothing short of amazing. Every trail we took warmed my heart and made the inner kid in me come alive. As a Floridian who has come out every spring to visit family for about 12 years straight now, No other trip like this has left me with such joy. For those who take the time to read this, and even if Mark were to read this. I want to thank him and advise anyone in the area or anyone taking a trip out there to choose Mark Boutin as your guide. He is the man and made this trip something special and something I will remember for life. I could go on and on about this trip and the amazing man who took us through the incredible backcountry. YOU ROCK MARK! read less

They are AMAZING!!! We chose them because they made everything super easy from start to finish. They picked us up, got us situated on some brand new machines, provided an AWESOME tour of the slopes and trails across from Vail Mountain and delivered us back home with everyone smiling. Greg was our guide and he is very safe and accommodating to all ability levels, knowledgable of the area you are riding in, a professional group photographer, and one of those guys that if you saw in town after your tour you would feel lucky to buy him a beer to say thanks for a GREAT day! Cannot wait for another group to come visit so we can take them on another snowmobiling adventure with Vail Backcountry Tours!!!! read less

They pick you up right at your hotel accommodations. Then take you in to get outfitted correctly. Although we felt prepared with our outerwear, they quickly gave us boots & jackets that were more appropriately suited to the cold weather that will be experienced. while riding. So do not worry if you didn't bring the right stuff. They have you covered. They do a great job going over snowmobiling instructions, and we all felt comfortable while at on the trail (one adult single driver, one 15yr old single driver - with permit, and 2 of us double riding). The snowmobiles even have heated handles which help to keep your hands warm the whole time (even for the 2nd rider). The trails were beautiful and of course made our kids from Florida very happy with all the snow that had recently accumulated. We did the 3+ hour tour with lunch. The lunch served at the yurt was delicious. We were welcomed into a warm yurt, which of course felt so good. The hot chocolate, hot apple cider were delicious. And the lunch with dessert hit the spot. The only thing is that I would have liked to have been able to stop a few additional times to take some pictures, as the scenery was absolutely breathtaking - especially maybe to those of us from Florida 🙂 We would most definitely book again on our next trip to Vail. It was one of the highlights of our trip for all 4 of us! read less

It was a 25 minute ride to the mountain and was happily surprised they had my size in boots, bibs and helmet (I am a big guy). On Saturday we had a fantastic group and a great leader and it was so much fun in the mountains. The break at the Yurt was great and the lemon tarts are to die for. I went back Monday with the wife. We did not have as good of a group and at the beginning was a lot of waiting for people to catch up but still a great time. Great time and the people working there could not be any nicer.

Greg was knowledgeable about CO, the sites, and trails. The snow mobiles were very nice, the seats, handles, and even the thumb throttle were heated. Even though there wasn't much snow in the mountains, the trails they had groomed had a lot. The only reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 is because we were all asked by Kerry to tip "the industry standard" of 20% at the beginning of the tour. We felt pressured to tip on the card and a certain amount before the tour had even started. Guides would receive more tips if checkout was at the end and not beginning. Overall, the tour was great, lunch exceeded our expectations, and the scenery was beautiful! read less

I had never been on a snow mobile before, so the beginning was a little timid, driving a vehicle that on a road with a drop off, by time we returned I was not at all uncomfortable navigating the road near offices. We spent 3 hours with our guide traversing the countryside with some seriously beautiful breathtaking views. My favorite however was when things opened up and you got the chance to really get some speed going! To finish it off we ended up in this fabulous Yurt where we served lunch and warm drinks. I will absolutely be doing this again if I find myself in Vail! More read less

We came from Denver and Fort Collins for our friend’s birthday and had more fun than we even expected. The trip took about 2.5 hours- 3 with suiting up and the instruction session- so we definitely got our money’s worth. They made sure we were well-suited for the cold and gave us a safety briefing before we took off. Super scenic views, good speeds for both those who wanted to go quickly at times and still slow enough for those who wanted to take a leisurely pace and take in the views. A great stop at a nice little hut for some hot cocoa, treats, and toe warming by the wood fire. Overall a wonderful experience and great guides! read less

The staff was amazing and our guide Chris was patient and beyond helpful. He was very kind and offered to take so many pictures with our phones of our families so we could save these memories. The whole family enjoyed every thing from the ride of the snow mobile, the breath taking views and of course the break in between for some hot chocolate and treats! Highly recommend for a experience you won’t forget!! read less

When we first arrived, the check-in was extremely busy but managed well. I was a little uncomfortable due to Covid-19 with so many people inside of the building, so we checked-in and waited outside. They took our concerns seriously and were very accommodating by giving us our own family vehicle to ride up to where the snow mobiles were waiting.

The snow mobiles were in great shape and went really fast! We were a little nervous at first, but the instructors gave us a very thorough demonstration, and then we were off! It was exhilarating and so much fun. The views were absolutely beautiful!!!
We took our boys ages 8 & 10, and while they weren't able to drive, they still loved riding as a passenger.

Would definitely recommend! read less

We had a stop for hot chocolate, hot apple cider and cookies along the way. Very comfortable, they provide a snowsuit, boots and a helmet. Greg was our guide and kept us going at the right pace with speeds between 20 and 30 for the most part. And they have a track in this huge meadow where you can let loose. New vehicles on our tour, too. read less

The equipment was incredible, brand new, beautiful snow mobiles with heated hand grips!! Our outing was in the late afternoon, so as we were heading back the sun was setting. What an incredible sunset and then the lights of Vail came on. Definitely a memorable evening and we will most definitely repeat next year! read less
