What a great private tour of Arcadia National Park and Maine. AJ, our tour guide was friendly, professional and a safe driver. He made the tour interesting by adding some of his childhood memories of our route and places we visited. As we are not shoppers, except for LL Bean which he added for us, but more like to learn about the history and geography, he planned our visit around our interests. He was also a great photographer and took many wonderful photographs for us that will provide cherished memories of Maine.

A.J. was awesome. Because of heavy rain, we were unable to go to Acadia National Park. Due to his great knowledge of the area, he was able to fill our day by taking us to gorgeous, quaint towns in Coastal Maine. He took us to the botanical gardens and everyone in our group greatly enjoyed it He is an awesome tour guide. I highly recommend this tour.
