Well organized. Paul was a great guide. Friendly. Knowledgeable. Entertaining. Informative. He made sure everyone was comfortable and enjoying themselves. The waterfalls are great. The overlook was impressive. We both enjoyed the four hour tour!! Would definitely recommend this tour.

Our guide, Chris, was phenomenal! His vast knowledge of the waterfalls, Blue Ridge Parkway & the history of the Pisgah National Forest was incredible! In addition, Chris has been college educated in ecological studies, so it was a wonderful bonus to learn about various birds, wildlife, plants and butterflies. Chris was personable, had a great attitude and disposition and was happy to answer many, many questions from the tour participants. This trip was a great way to spend the day and Chris was the absolute best guide! Can’t wait to come back to Western Carolina!
