Whether you choose to visit in winter or summer, a Colorado vacation is an adventure lover's dream come true!  There are more outdoor activities and fun things to do in Colorado than you can imagine.  We've got everything you need to plan your complete Colorado vacation - from the best prices on southwest airfares to the best Colorado hotels and guaranteed savings.

Colorado enjoys the distinction of having more 14,000 ft. peaks than any other state, and the mountains here seem to touch the sky.  But Colorado is more than just the heart of the Rocky Mountains!  

Colorado visitors can explore the beautiful red rock canyons and ancient Native American ruins, take in exciting museums and art galleries, or watch one of the state's professional sports teams crush the competition in Denver.  In the summer you can choose between whitewater rafting, hot air balloon rides, jeep tours, mountain biking, horseback riding, hiking trails, rock climbing, or a relaxing soak at one of the many Colorado hot springs

For many visitors winter is the ultimate time to take a Colorado vacation.  Of course, Colorado ski resorts are legendary.  If playing in several feet of fresh powder sounds like fun, come to Colorado and you can test your downhill skiing or snowboarding skills on some of the world's most challenging slopes.  Other winter vacation activities include snowmobiling, dog sledding, snow shoeing, cross country skiing, 
and ice fishing. 

Fall is the time for elk hunting in Colorado, but deer, moose, antelope, bear, mountain lion, mountain goat, big horn and dall sheep also bring hunters to the state to experience the natural beauty of the Rocky Mountains.  

While most people associate Colorado with rugged mountain adventure, those with more refined tastes can enjoy outstanding public golf courses, restaurants, and casinos.

One of the best ways to see the scenic wonders of Colorado is to rent an RV.  If there are four or more in your group, you will find renting an RV to be a very cost effective way to tour the Rockies compared to renting a car and staying in hotels.  It also allows you to save money on food, since you can cook in the RV.  Plus, you will enjoy the benefits of total freedom.  

So take a Colorado virtual tour to top destinations like Mesa Verde, the Great Sand Dunes, Rocky Mountain National Park, Denver, Colorado Springs, Durango, Silverton, Telluride, Pagosa Springs and Cortez.  You'll find campgrounds, guided tours, maps, dining guides and more!

With so much to see and do, there is never a dull moment in Colorado.  And since one picture is worth a thousand words, be sure to visit our photo galleries.
