Dustin was a fabulous guide! His family has lived in the area for over 200 years and he was able to tell us information and lore that can’t be read in a tour book! We highly recommend his tours!

I thank you kindly for the warm words. It was a pleasure having y'all on board with me. I really enjoy sharing my stories and it's even better when I know I've made someone's vacation even better. I hope you continue to have a wonderful time with us here in the Smoky Mountains and please come visit again soon.

This event was absolutely terrible! We didn’t see much in the way of Christmas lights other than going down the main streets in Gatlinburg. We did drive up to the top of a hill to look down, but we didn’t stop and there was nothing to see. In Pigeon Forge we had to view most of the lights as we drove through parking lots and viewed the lights through trees, as they were part of a walking tour. I had already seen the lights on this tour by driving or walking around myself. The best part of this event was when it was finally over!

I'm sorry you didn't enjoy the tour. We operate a lights tour on a bus/van. It's a driving tour not a walking tour. We drive through each of the cities through different areas to view the lights from the vehicle. We do this for several reasons ... 1. Some people have mobility issues and can not easily get in and out 2. It's cold outside and we like to stay warm, opening the doors all the time let's the heat out 3. We are limited on time, the tour already last 2-3 hours with no stops so adding those would make it last much much longer and we do not wish to keep people out late at night. 4. We advertise and market the tour as a bus tour viewing the holiday lights in Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. 5. We must view them from the parking lot because they don't like it when you drive a bus onto the grass or sidewalks. You say you had to view most of the lights through trees. Might I remind you of the snooty deer, the cat and the fiddle, the 12 days of Christmas, the nativity scene, and the other 4 dozen displays we passed that I pointed out so you knew where to look. Not to mention the 3 bridges covered in lights, the butterflies, and countless other displays to numerous to recall in this response. Im sorry you had already seen these lights but we do not put up special lights or go to any special place built just for us ... we simply drive through each of the 2 cities looking at the lights on display while the tour guide gives you 2+ hours of stories and information.

Sassy and Chief were great! They made the trip fun and I became a redneck officially 😁. I was even given a new name of Wee Wee. Sassy is one of the best comics I have seen in a long time. Keep it up! The Christmas lights were beautiful
