Vacation Like a Local

Home » Local Colorado News » Vacation Like a Local

July 27, 2018 by Kevin W

Planning a vacation to an unfamiliar destination is often times difficult, especially in a small mountain town like Summit County.  Setting a trip up yourself can be hard work.  Especially one that hits some of the local hot spots.  It takes lots of time and research, which is why many people seek help when booking a trip.  Most travel agents will point you toward Summit Counties popular destinations, which are plentiful here in the mountains and great for first time travelers. BUT if you have that irresistible urge to break away from the crowds then this type of travel package may not be for you.  So how do you book a trip that allows you to vacation like a local?  Easy!  You book with a Summit County local who knows how to travel.  Fortunately for you we have a Sales agent right here at Summit express who fits the mold!

a Quiet Morning in the Clouds of Summit County

If you were looking into taking a vacation to Summit County Colorado and were looking for some great local help, Don’t fall victim to the typical activities here in the mountains.  Set up a trip that will allow you to see the sights and enjoy the activities that really keep the locals here for the long haul.

Other Tips for Traveling like a Local

  • Book your transportation up to Summit County with Summit Express (our drivers and sales agents have lots of local information to share)
  • Try looking for local Air B&Bs
  • Avoid hotels and adventure destinations that are first in search results
  • Talk to the locals. A lot of them will be happy to share their (second) most favorite place to adventure to

The communication was top notch, which included a reminder text the day before, a phone call from the driver, and this follow up thank you email. In addition, any time I called the office everyone was very courteous & friendly. I’ll definitely be recommending your company to others & I will use it again as well. Thanks so much for the top rate service!

Our driver, Jeff, was friendly and accommodating. His contributions to our conversations made the ride fun. He tolerated 7 chatty women exceptionally well!

Using the private shuttle to get to the airport was perfect! It was so much easier than using rental cars! Summit Express will be our airport travel mode from now on!

Absolutely loved working with Summit Express! Could not have been better. We were shuttled from DIA to Breckenridge various times over two months, using 28 shuttles in total. Not once did Summit Express make a mistake, every transfer was perfect. Always on time!

We loved their friendly customer service. They were flexible when we had to change our schedule multiple times at the last minute, courteous to our needs, and they really cared about making us content with what we were buying. They are all about their customers and I could not think of a better company to use.

Frank is a great driver, very friendly and chatty and made the end of our trip a happy time rather than a sad ride to the airport and back to reality.
