from Denver to Colorado Springs
 
Hello, after 3,5 hours of search I'm finally giving up. Is there any public transportation between Denver and Colorado Springs? I will be in Denver end of May - beginning of June, still planning the trip, and want to go to Colorado Springs for one day only. Amtrak has 2 buses a day only which makes it impossible to get back the same day. Greyhound search gave me $98 round-trip what is insane. Is there any local public transportation? Web site? At least the name of the transport companies, please?<BR>And driving is out of question.

Wow, it went to #73 in just 2 hours! Topping for myself. Anybody knows Colorado public transit system?

In most parts of Colorado, the public transportation system is very poor. In fact, I think there is a bus to CS from Denver, but it takes about 3 hours to make the 1 hour trip because of so many stops. I agree with the above poster, I believe you could rent a car for less money than a bus ride anyway.

PS. You might try something like Grey Line Tours. They might have a "tour" going there.
