Our driver, Bill, was fantastic! He drove us all over Acadia National Park. He was so informative and knowledgeable. He made many stops for us to get out and walk around and to take pictures. I would highly recommend this 4 hour tour.

We did the minivan tour for 6 people with Caleb. He is an excellent, enthusiastic guide and native of Mt. Desert Island. The tour was exceptional in that we visited all the important sites and had time to explore each one. Caleb is a real people person and goes out of his way to present a great tour. We all highly recommend At Your Service Tours and Caleb to make the most of your time in Acadia.

Caleb is tons of fun and full of energy. As a local he can navigate the park to show you all the places that make Acadia spectacular.
