We had an amazing time. AJ was a fantastic tour guide. He was very flexible, and went out of his way to make sure we had fun, and saw the most beautiful sites. When the weather didn't cooperate, he found ways to make sure we got a great experience. He knew the area very well, and had great stories to share. He even provided snacks and drinks. I would absolutely recommend this trip.

A.J. was our guide and he was great. Very personable and informative. His vehicle was new and clean. He was a good driver. He supplied an assortment of drinks and snacks but also stopped and bought special local goodies for us to try. The restaurant we stopped at along the way was delicious. We saw and experienced more than we thought we would but when one area was closed he made an extra stop that wasn’t part of our tour. All in all it was a perfect day. You will be fortunate to have A.J. as your guide in Maine and the White Mountains.
