One of the best tours that we have had. Learned a ton on the tour, Paul was a great guide! Went to 3 waterfalls and saw some of the beautiful views at the top of the Blue Ridges

Abby was a great guide. Our daughters really enjoyed her information about local plants and trees. Abby's stories about the waterfalls and history of the area were great. I would highly recommend this tour for families. Well worth the money.

We had a beautiful 1/2 day hiking with Paul !!! We booked a group tour & it turned into a private with just the 5 of us! We met at crank coffee & started our tour with a map lesson of the area & a plan for the day. We hiked to beautiful views & adventured to 3 waterfalls, meanwhile learning about the surrounding ecosystem & National Park!!! Excellent family tour!!! Highly recommend!!! Forced our teens to get up early & they really enjoyed the amazing views & photo ops! Paul was knew exactly how to keep the family engaged and enjoying the outdoors. Thank again “Daniel Ridge” 😉
