Samantha was amazing. She was so educational and personal and was able to change our walk mid day due to our limitations. Thank you!!!

Our guide was outstanding. She was knowledgeable about the history and the plant life. Very friendly we really enjoyed our hike. We would definitely recommend her and this company!

This was our second walk with Samantha...in fact, we requested her! She is very knowledgeable and very personable. Answered all of our questions and was just full of the history of the Walker Sisters cabin walk. I experienced some difficulties coming back out of the walk (the humidity and my age are not always a good combination!), but she was so patient, so kind and just kept talking and offering support. She's great!! I promised her that I'd acclimate better, get in better shape...and we will come back next year for our third hike!!
