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

BUT, the Shuttle service from door-to-door, equipment included [Helmet, snowmobile, pants, boots] basically anything you may have forgotten lol, was well worth the price!! PAUL, our tour guide was exceptional. He not only made sure we were fully informed of all of the safety protocols and hand signals, but also helped our experience with GREAT energy, smiles, laughs and a welcoming spirit. Me and my girlfriend will be bringing our ENTIRE family on the next trip to Colorado and we will be repeat customers with Vail BackCountry Tours !!

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.

Our guide was extremely helpful and patient with all, making sure we each enjoyed the day. The LUNCH was way more than we expected. Not your average boxed lunch, much closer to a gourmet meal in the middle of the mountains. Highly recommend you checking Vail Backcountry Tours out! read less

Nathan Guild picked us up directly from our hotel in Vail and was an absolute gentleman. Once we picked the rest of group up from a meeting site, we drove in a limo style shuttle van. Top shelf from start to finish. The staff was all attentive once we arrived to the main snowmobile headquarters and was so genuine in wishing my wife and I happy 55th birthday!! I've ridden in several snowmobiles during my lifetime, however, these were by far top of the notch! Heated handlebars for the passengers seat complete with backrest, and heated driver grips along with touch adjusting buttons. After a well detailed safety and instructions meeting with Nathan, we began our journey into the winter wonderland of the Vail mountains. We were a group of 12 with Nathan and a guild in training bringing up the rear. I felt so safe as did my wife on the same vehicle. Safety was priority number 1 with this company. You could tell, this is not for the yahoos and drunks. If you wipe out, it could ruin everyone's trip waiting to pull your snowmobile out of the ravines. After a joyful ride, we made our way to the mountain top hut. A wonderful "Happy birthday " dessert and candles made our day!!! My wife wants to do it again and next time with friends and family. read less

I would highly recommend this tour company 10000x over again ~ halfway through the tour you stop at a warm cozy hut to warm your toes and enjoy some hot cocoa and warm brownies.

The team, and in particular our guide Nathan Guild, did an AMAZING job teaching us how to drive and making sure I felt comfortable the entire time. It ended up being my favorite part of the entire trip: it was SO fun to drive, and the views were unbelievable (better than at the top of the ski mountain). I shared a machine with a friend, switching off driving, and did the 3 hour tour and thought it was the perfect combo/length for me. Nathan was truly the best guide ever - making sure I felt comfortable without slowing down the thrill-seekers of the group. If you have any anxiety about snowmobiling, he is your guy!! 10/10, cannot recommend more highly!!! read less

The staff was kind, funny and made you feel like you belonged in the crew. Greg was our guide and he was awesome!

My husband and I were picked up at the hotel with some other adventurers.

This was my first time snowmobiling and I hope it won't be my last. Bo, our guide, was the best. Not only was he funny, but he was also one of the coolest guides I've ever met. He did everything to ensure everyone's safety and also that we all had a good time. He was very personable. It felt like talking to someone you've known for years rather than someone you just met.

The scenery was incredible. So I'm glad we made some stops for pictures. And we also had some time to rest and warm up with hot drinks like coffee, tea, and apple cider along with cookies. There were charging stations to recharge phones there as well.

I only wish I had chosen a longer trip or had been able to take another one before leaving Vail. So, if you're in the area, check them out and book early. read less

Vail Backcounty Tours was by far the highlight of our trip. From booking to arranging for transportation to the actual snow mobiles themselves- outstanding. Halfway through the tour you get a break for warm drinks and sweet treats (they even have a charging station for phones). Our guide Nathan Guild made our experience exceptional. Thank you Vail Backcountry Tours and Nathan! You guys rock and we look forward to our next tour). read less

They pick you up at your hotel, get you dressed properly, and show you an awesome time. The machines are all new and in perfect working order. The snack/lunch break in the Yert was a total hit for everyone in the family. Great organization. read less

Our guide, Beau, was attentive all the time, a great host. All the gear provided by the tour company is in good working order. The trails are safe for first timers and the landscape is awesome. Don’t miss the opportunity to take this tour. 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
