What a fabulous day! - We had an AMAZING time with Lee. We had great conversation and it made for such a great day. We were able to hike, see the beautiful scenery, visit Grandfather Mountain and see the swinging bridge and animals and see a beautiful waterfall. She was so thoughtful and brought delicious snacks and drinks. The day was a perfect end to our trip! I would highly recommend this trip for anyone.

Brendan did a great job... - Brendan did a great job of personalizing our trip. We saw the best of color that was available at this early time in the season. He was extremely knowledgeable of plant life but also area history as it relates to the Parkway and surrounding area. Loved the day! It was perfect.

Awesome! - Great day seeing the amazing sites and learning about nature and the history of the Blue Ridge Parkway. My wife and I had had a great time, and our guide Brandon was awesome. We took a casual drive from Asheville to Blowing Rock. We did some hiking, saw incredible views, saw some waterfalls, learned about the native trees, plants, and animals. Overall great day, and highly recommend.

Phenomenal - The lookouts were beautiful and the mountains were gorgeous. Being from Texas and the triple digits currently, we thoroughly enjoyed the Asheville and the mountain weather. Brendon is a great driver and knows the layout of the tour, the Blue Ridge Parkway, etc. Brendon is very knowledgeable and shared his wealth of knowledge of the landscape and the forest and NC. He is a great asset to your guiding company. You don’t want to lose him! I hope to come back and have him as our guide again.

Peaceful day of beauty - It was so nice to have been picked up and dropped off at our hotel by Jason. Jason was a fabulous tour guide. He was personable, respectful and knowledgeable. We had lunch together at a beautiful stop along the parkway. Mt. Mitchell was breathtaking. The day couldn’t have been more perfect. I recommend the tour with Jason 100+%.

Spectacular Color of the Blue Ridge Mountains - Jason, our tour guide was just the best. He made sure that my friend & I had absolutely everything we needed for a full day’s journey into one of the most glorious National Parks. I had seen parts of the Blue Ridge Mtns in Spring & Summer, but Fall was the most spectacular. Jason took us for hikes to waterfalls we definitely would have missed on our own. This trip is worth every dollar.
