The tour guide Tony was fantastic. He is very knowledgeable, professional, compassionate, accommodating and fun. He made everybody laugh throughout the whole trip. The view of blue ridge parkway was stunning. The 3 waterfalls during 2.75 miles hiking was stunning. Each one was unique. Tony picked me up and dropped off at my hotel which made the tour completely hassle free. He also provided cold water and snacks. It was a very memorable experience. I will definitely book it again with Tony when I come back to Asheville at a different season!

I had an incredible tour experience! The views were simply stunning, and our driver, Tony, was exceptional. He shared stories about Asheville's history and the various trails, making the journey even more enjoyable. The van was very comfortable, and Tony picked me up right at my hotel, which was a delightful convenience. This tour was absolutely worth it, and I would gladly choose Tony's company again in the future. I highly recommend this experience to anyone looking to explore the area!

Tony was absolutely incredible! He was very promt, responsive and organized even before the tour initially started. Hotel pick up was such an AMAZING perk as a solo traveler. Definitely takes some stress off. The stops and sites were breathtaking! The snacks were plenty and he had a variety of simple drinks. You can tell he goes above and beyond to give the best tour with no rushing. There were endless photo opportunities and he takes the photos for you if you want him to! I loved the chill vibe of this small group tour! I would choose this tour company 100 times again! ❤️

I have to say Tony was awesome! He was warm and friendly and shared lots of interesting information about everything that we were seeing. He always made sure that everyone was comfortable and having a good time. My sister and I thoroughly enjoyed our tour.

Amazing! Tony is so knowledgeable and passionate about the history and importance of the forests and waterfalls. Amazing time. Couldn’t have asked for better weather either! Just so blessed to have been able to experience this!

Tony, the owner and guide was fabulous. He kept us entertained as well as talked about all the history of the area. He was super friendly and made the trip very enjoyable. His van was comfortable and he had good snacks. The scenery was breathtaking. This was a most enjoyable trip and I'm so glad I took it. It was a bit of a hike with some steep hills in spots so make sure you're able to walk and hike a little. The paths were pretty level for a park. I highly recommend this tour if you love nature and beautiful waterfalls.

Despite dense fog limiting mountain views, the Blue Ridge Parkway Waterfalls Hiking Tour was wonderful. The 2.7-mile hike was the perfect low-to-moderate level trek with beautiful waterfalls as the highlight. Tony made the trip outstanding—he came prepared with cold water and snacks, shared a wealth of knowledge, and kept an incredibly positive attitude throughout. Highly recommend!
