Beautiful drive along the Blue Ridge parkway and hikes up to a peak and 2 fantastic waterfalls. The weather was perfect and the view was amazing. Our guide, MK, was super knowledgeable about the area, the wildlife and the foliage. She was friendly and funny and made the day really fun. I would recommend this trip to anyone who loves to hike moderate terrain and learn about nature. I would also recommend MK as a guide. She was fantastic . We will be back!

Beautiful day full of adventure. Waterfalls were off the beaten track so wonderful time. Would love to do a different set of falls next time

We had an overall great experience. Our guide called us a few days before to ask if we had hiked or been to the waterfalls in Asheville and to check if we had any specific requests for our hike. He picked us up at the hotel and was super friendly and gave us a lot of great information about the forest and the history of the area. We went to some out of the way places that were beautiful. Would do this again.
