My family and I did the 2 hour family tour and it was great! Our wonderful guide explained many plants and creatures in the rainforest of the Smokey Mountain. She stopped along the way to play short nature games with my kids. The highlight was at the end when she showed us where and how to find salamanders. My older child also enjoyed herself!

We had an amazing time exploring with Kenzie. We all learned a ton and my kids loved every second! The special touches of magnifying glasses and catching salamanders was the icing on the cake.

A fantastic experience for all six of us aged 77 to 9 years old. Deb was an awesome guide. She obviously enjoyed the experience of sharing her knowledge and being in the woods! The two kids were intrigued with her stories and games and asked a lot of questions. We all learned things we didn't know. Every turn found us in lush surroundings, creeks, trees, mushrooms, exotic plants...and even spotting a couple deer!! An easy mile hike that lasted for a couple hours...so much fun!
