Moni was a wonderful guide for our family of 6 which included 3 young adults including one who does not like the great outdoors! She was also very accommodating to one in our party with some physical limitations. She took the time to discuss our expectations as well and what we wanted to do and see. She is so knowledgeable and showed us the hidden gems that we would have otherwise missed. She also took us off the beaten path away from crowds per our request. Plus she brought snacks and waters which we had underestimated. Highly recommend her and the company.

Thanks so much for taking the time to write such a thorough review of your time with Moni. Our guides are truly passionate about leading nature lovers into the outdoors. They stay outfitted to ensure you all have what you need to enjoy a beautiful day in the Pisgah National Forest. Thanks for your recommendation and we hope to see you on the trail soon :)

My husband and I scheduled a private tour. Eli was our guide. She was amazing! - both knowledgeable and warm. Her enthusiasm for the region and for the subjects she shared with us was infectious! Highly recommend this outfit.
