First and foremost get the right address for departure. It’s not wear valley shopping center. Second, be prepared for a wonderful, narrative filled tour with a great lunch sandwiched between beautiful scenery. Dustin was our guide and the reviews do him justice. Very knowledgeable about the area and history. It is a six hour tour but you saw everything that if you were driving unable to enjoy. Highly recommend for someone who does not have a planned itinerary for their visit in area.

Amazing from the minute Dustin picked us up to the minute he dropped us off. The knowledge he passed on about the mountains, the locals, the area, was fantastic. We visited lots of great places, photo stops, great lunch, really, brilliant day. Thanks Dustin !

Dustin was amazing! Very interesting, informative and down to earth guide! We have been on a lot of tours and this was by far the best. He never rushed the tour, in fact we went over and he didn’t seem to mind at all. He brought us to the best spots for pictures. And the lunch is amazing. Book this tour. I promise you won’t regret it!!!
