Caroline did an excellent job giving the tour as well as a good driver in nasty weather, I would recommend this tour especially Caroline as the tour guide.

I, along with my six siblings and our spouses, spent several days at Big Buck Lodge in Gatlinburg, for a 'sibling reunion'. We rented the mini-bus for Friday, October 11th. Our guides were Dylan and Kensey. They were FANTASTIC. They picked us up at the cabin and took us up to Clingman's Dome. They were so much fun as guides..and, their knowledge of the area and various aspects of the Smokies was remarkable. A Walk in the Woods is so fortunate to have these two on their team. They made it a very fun time...and, we would recommend A Walk in the Woods to anyone. And, if you can Kensey and Dylan as your guides...you are in for a real treat. Five BIG stars all the way around.

Our guide was very friendly and informative. We stopped along the way for some photo ops too. We all enjoyed it, including our 9 and 14 year olds.
