This is Jordan, Cynthia’s daughter, writing this review. We aren’t necessarily a hiking family, but in light of recent events we wanted to take part in a safe activity. Boy did we have an amazing time. Our guide, Sam, was engaging, helpful, and knowledgeable. Her enthusiasm about the Smokies alone was enough to make us enjoy the trip. In addition, she had no qualms around making the trip back slow for those who were exhausted traveling uphill. She was simply the best! I would recommend this hike to anyone for the views, the education and the fun.

Jaime [Jamie] was our guide. It was just my wife and I , so it was essentially a private hike. She paced our hike well; taught us to notice types of trees; flowering herbs; and described ecological changes from the 2016 fire. It was a good moderate paced hike along a beautiful bluff and ended at a beautiful waterfall.

🌿Our hike with Mike was awesome! He was extremely knowledgeable and pointed out things along the way that we would have missed or never knew. The day was a bit of a drizzle but we still had a great time navigating the trials. The waterfall was beautiful. We were with another family who also had a teen daughter like us so we all connected well. I highly recommend A Walk in the Woods. Our guide is a true professional and his love for nature showed throughout our hike. 🌿🍃🍂🌾
