This tour was one of the best I have ever been on. Our guide was very informative and took us to places that weren’t even on our tour. He went out of his way to make sure we had the best tour. He took pictures of us and things he thought we find interesting and sent them to us. Besides providing drinks and snacks, he knew we didn’t have time for lunch so when we got back to the van, he bought lunch for us and had it waiting for us. I recommend them highly if you want an interesting and a fun tour. AJ was the best tour guide who made it a tour we will never forget

We spent 4 days in Portland, great walkable city with awesome food! We wanted to see some of the charm and beauty of Maine outside of Portland so we booked this private day tour. AJ picked us up in the morning in a new spacious SUV, we were his only guests. We saw Freeport, a charming little town where the LL Bean factory store was, then we headed to the Portland Botanical Gardens. The gardens were beautiful and scenic with easy hikes near the shoreline, we did about 2 miles. We then visited Booth Bay, a quintessential Maine town, it’s very beautiful. We had lunch and took in the charm of this picturesque town on the water. The final stop was the Portland Head Light a must see! AJ and this tour made it so easy, he even had Mimosas for us! We totally recommended this tour.

We had private tour up and down middle coast of Maine. Arnie, our driver was a character. He picked us up promptly and made suggestions to enhance our Maine excursion. Saw lighthouses near Portland, went to L.L. Bean outlet, ate lunch at a working wharf (where we saw a tuna sold and cut up), as well other towns and unique experiences up the coast. It was a long day but well worth the time and cost.
