My friend and I went on this tour last weekend. The tour was fantastic. We learned a lot about Asheville and enjoyed the stories Tad shared. Tad, our guide, was incredibly knowledgeable, entertaining, and a great host. We were slightly concerned about not being able to hear, but Tad did a great job tucking the group into corners where the acoustics were really great. I would definitely recommend this tour to others (and would consider going again!).
