I am aware of at least four transportation providers in the Colorado
Springs area. There are probably more.....
The only one that I know of, that routinely provides full transportation,
touring, hotels, AND meals is
Adventure Trails
http://www.adventuretrailsinc.com/philmont.htm
We have used their services on two previous trips. We were very satisfied.
 
Gray Line tours may be able to help with hotels, in addition to transportation.

Timberline Transportation only does transportation. They seem to have a
real Scouting focus (as does Adventure Trails).

Peoples Choice only provide transportation.

We are going to use Timberline this trek. We have made our own hotel and
touring reservations.
The reason - to save a couple $$$$'s. Since we have a few trips under our
belt, we feel more confident
about making more arrangements for ourselves.
 
Adventure Trails do a great job and were worth the money, for our first
couple trips, in my opinion.
 
Hope this helps. Good Luck!
