Black Balsam, Tennent Knobs, Investor Gap Loop, and Graveyard Fields - This was hands down the best day of my trip to Asheville! We had beautiful weather and the views were awe inspiring. I even got teary eyed at one point as the Blue Ridge Mountain horizon is humbling. My tour guide, Bev was A- MAZING!!! She picked the perfect hikes for my fitness level and desire to still see the views. It was just the right amount of strenuous without overdoing it. She was incredibly knowledgeable and fun to hike with and was very thoughtful by bringing a gf, df lunch which she allowed me to select. She also had many snacks for me that I liked and could eat. I carpooled with Bev to save on the cost which was very accommodating. I would not hesitate to use this tour company and guide again. You’ll be in good hands and cannot go wrong!

Amazing hiking experience - My husband and I had the most amazing experience hiking the Blue Ridge Mountain trail up to the Alum Cave Bluff with our wonderful guide Bev. It was a challenging hike but with Bev’s knowledge of the trail and great conversation it didn’t seem as difficult as it probably was. So many beautiful vistas of the surround mountains and valleys, lush rhododendron stands, boulder field streams, natural bridges and archways. The leaves were just beginning to show color. I highly recommend the Blue Ridge Hiking Company and our guide, Bev, for any guided walking tour in the area!

TERRIFIC EXPERIENCE! - I and two friends hike with Mel from BRH Co for 3 days. She was wonderful, the trails she chose were perfect for us and beautiful!! Can't wait to go back!

A professional company and a warm and personable guide. - This is our second series of trips with Blue Ridge Hiking. We did two full day hikes, and 1/2 day hike. Mel was our guide for all three. The logistics up until we arrived at BRHC were great. The company is very transparent and sent out great questions in order to plan our hikes. We had Mel as our guide for all three days. Everything Mel had planned was great. She was very flexible about what we wanted to do. The scenery, of course, was gorgeous. We took a lot of great pictures. Every lunch was great and we appreciated that charcuterie board on our half day hike. Can’t say enough good stuff about our guide. She was perfect!

Best of Private Hikes with Blue Ridge Hiking Company - We had 5 days of Full Day hikes with our private guides - Hannah Brock (3 days) and Tamera Trexler (2 Days). They were both truly excellent. Contacted 1 week prior to our arrival to discuss our likes and dislikes - I have fear of heights and allergy to bee stings. They both are avid hikers and very familiar with the trails. Hannah scouted the Mount Mitchell hike condition in advance to make sure I would be able to handle. Tamera is very knowledgeable re. Plants and flowers. All the hikes were very beautiful and suited to our difficulty level. We even saw some elk and a black bear with Tamera. They never rushed us, took appropriate rest and lunch times. They stopped at view points for pictures too. Lunch was selected to our requests. Tamera brought a bunch of snack and other goodies from Trader Joe’s which we enjoyed. The Blue Ridge staffs were very nice and customer service oriented. Melissa our private trip coordinator recommended our two best guides., very prompt and detailed, her suggestion that we stayed in Asheville instead of 15 minutes away in the mountains were right on. Asheville is such an amazing town - great restaurants and shopping. They were very understanding and supportive when we had to change our trip times due to unforeseen circumstances. Blue Ridge Hiking company showed us an amazing time hiking in North Caroline.

Great day hiking! - Bev was a great hiking guide for our first visit to the area. She took us on a variety of trails; we saw panoramic vistas, meadows, and waterfalls. Bev really went the extra mile and gave us a wonderful day out!

Exactly what I wanted - I booked this hike for my son and I, but it really was intended as a 'tune up' for my Camino hike the following month. Mel Gibson was our guide and she was superb. - She listened to what I wanted/didn't want and adapted perfectly - The hike she planned was challenging, but not beyond our abilities - She was on time and totally prepared - She was excited, joyful, and very informative - She gave me great tips and guidance for my upcoming Camino hike I can be a harsh critic, but in this case I can only say positive things. My son and I finished the day tired but energized.. if that makes any sense.

Great hiking! - This is our third summer using Blue Ridge Hiking Co. We have used them for backpacking and hiking and each time the trips are thoughtfully planned out to ensure they cater to the type of trip/hike desired. Great service and very professional team!

Wonderful day of hiking! - I went on an all day hike with my spouse and our wonderful guide Bev MacDowell. It was a fantastic day which took us to Sam’s knob and other scenic locations. We were blown away by the beauty of the the Blue Ridge Mountains and enjoyed the exercise and lively conversation! I highly recommend this hike to anyone who wants to get great exercise and explore the area.

View and trails that you can’t get enough off. - Great experience. We went out to the blue ridge mountains on a private guided hike with Traci our guide for the day, who gave us options of what we would like to cover ..We started out with a bit of clouds but the view as we hiked was stunning .. time flew by but the experience of it was just beautiful. We shared great stories with each other.. the weather was just perfect today.. but great company always makes it all the more enjoyable…this has really opened me up to doing more hikes and coming back to Asheville 😍 thanks Traci for making our day special and also for the beautiful Instagram pics .. our guide / photographer for the day ☺️
