Tour guide Teddy called us right after signing up, said it was too cold to do the tour (it wasn’t) and we needed to cancel through Trip Advisor. Trouble was, we lost all our payment if we cancelled. We called Teddy back to ask him to cancel the trip so we would get our $$ back, and he never responded.

Hi Inia, we are sorry for the mix up and inconvenience. You have been fully refunded. We apologize for not getting back with you by phone. We lost phone service on Sunday and just got it back late yesterday. In the end, however, the mistake was ours, and we are sorry we didn't get everything closed out for you. Thanks for your understanding and best wishes for a great holiday season.

This is an excellent tour. We learned so much that we would not have been able to learn on our own during our short stay in Asheville. Highly recommend.

We had an excellent tour with Tebbe. He was friendly, informative and enthusiastic. The walk was easy, and the headsets made it easy to hear. One of the highlights was information about Thomas Wolfe, which piqued our interest enough for a follow up tour of the Thomas Wolfe home and visitor center. The tour was $5, and excellent, and the visitor center movie and information were very interesting.
