Our tour guide Sam was excellent. She was very knowledgeable, patient and pleasant as a guide. The hike was amazing. We were lucky enough to hike on a beautiful day so the scenery, waterfall and creeks were beautiful. This excursion is suitable for beginner and intermediate hikers. I would recommend a walking stick if available and good hiking shoes. Overall memorable experience.

I did a quick 2 night trip to Gatlinburg and wanted to get the most out of a 4-5 hour hike in the Smokey Mountain National Park. I googled top things to do and also looked at Trip Advisor and the "A Walk In The Woods" trip was in the top 10. I am thrilled that I booked this trip. Our guide Kensey was so knowlegable about the Park and provided so much valuable information along the way. Exactly what I was looking for.
