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.

We were the only two on the tour. The tour guide picked us up at our hotel due to parking issues at their normal meeting place. The tour was excellent and the park, mountains and waterfalls were breathtaking. Many drove but after driving from Wisconsin to Florida back up to Tennessee it was great to just relax and enjoy. Highly recommend this tour!

So glad you enjoyed your driving tour with Bob. We are lucky to have him, he was voted one of the Top 100 Most Influential People of the Smokies!
