Magnificent views along the Blue Ridge Parkway. Just the right amount of stops for photos and bathroom breaks. We saw 3 waterfalls in Pisgah National Forest. Two of them required a short hike. During the hike, our tour guide Shannon shared her enthusiasm for nature and everything we were seeing. Her knowledge and enthusiasm made her one of the best tour guides we’ve had anywhere. Highly recommend the tour and Shannon!

Jennifer our guide was amazing! We saw 3 waterfalls, all different rocks and plants. We ate wild blueberries, blackberries, and sourwood leaves we found on the trail. Great way to spend our day.
