Colorado Tours & Holidays

Getting to Colorado is relatively easy with a number of different transportation options available.

These include:

• flying into one of the commercial airports such as Denver International Airport, Colorado Springs Airport, and Grand Junction Regional Airport
• embarking on a road trip from one of the neighboring states
• catching public transport in the form of a bus or a train with several routes taking you to various destinations within the state. 

Getting around Colorado is also relatively easy due to the number of different transportation options available. Driving is easy in Colorado with all major highways easy to navigate and maintained regularly.

You can also fly between popular destinations within the state as there are multiple commercial airports that offer services to different cities.

Colorado also has an excellent and reliable public transportation system in the form of bus and train networks that offer routes to popular destinations and regions within the state. Colorado is also home to the scenic Rocky Mountaineer train which travels between Colorado and the neighbouring state of Utah. 

Colorado's climate varies depending on where you are in the state but it is generally cool and dry. If you are visiting the eastern plains, daily temperatures can range between -26ºC in winter up to 35ºC in summer.

In the Colorado mountains, the weather is generally cooler with the valleys becoming particularly chilly in the evening.

Western Colorado is warmer and drier with temperatures similar to those you find in the eastern plains. 

Throughout the year, a large variance between daytime and night-time temperatures is common. 

The best time to visit Colorado depends on what you want to do. Weather-wise, mid to late spring (March to May) and early autumn (September to October) offer great weather conditions for hiking and cycling. You’ll miss the uncomfortable summer heat and the severe winter weather. The crowds are also smaller in these shoulder months.

If you're into snowsports, then winter is of course the best time to visit. Colorado is home to some of the USA's top skiing and snowboarding destinations including Aspen, Boulder, Wolf Creek Ski Area and Steamboat Ski Resort.

What to pack for Colorado depends on what time of the year you're travelling in and where you're planning on going.

For example, a Colorado mountain holiday will require much warmer clothes than a Denver city escape. Regardless of the season, there are some items you should always pack. Some of these items include sensible and comfortable walking shoes (most likely you'll be doing a lot of hiking during your time in Colorado), a sun hat or cap, and some sunscreen (especially in summer).

If you're travelling in winter, be sure to pack trousers, sweaters, waterproof jackets, and thick coats to keep yourself warm. 

If you stick to Colorado's popular cities like Denver, then your internet coverage shouldn't be affected.

However, if you're planning on spending time in one of the state's many national parks then you could experience some disruptions.

Most national parks have reception areas or tourist hubs where Wi-Fi access is available but if you're hiking through the park or you've stopped at a high-altitude viewpoint then your service is likely to be weak and unreliable.
