Million Dollar Highway Self-Guided Driving Audio Tour
Overview
Recommended: Purchase one tour per vehicle. Everyone can listen at the same time!
Strikeout for the wild west with this self-guided driving tour of Colorado’s Million Dollar Highway.

Today, it’s a totally unique blend of jaw-dropping natural beauty and rugged western charm. But you’ll do more than just see the sights with this tour—you’ll also learn the wild history of this area, from boom to bust.
