Over the Top Tour in Oconaluftee

Обзор
This tour travels over the crest of the Smokies from Tennessee into North Carolina. Along the way we'll experience one of the most scenic roads in the Southeast along with several panoramic mountain vistas. When we arrive in the Oconaluftee Valley we'll visit historic structures learning about the culture of the native Cherokee and European-descended mountaineers. While exploring this historic valley, we'll keep an eye out for elk. The largest animal in the Smokies, they were reintroduced by the park service in 2001.

Our Over the Top Tour got canceled due to wind and snow at the higher elevations. So our guide Wes proposed a substitute “mini tour” which lasted about 90 minutes. He cut the price and took us to the Elkmont settlement. During the drive he shared a lot of great information about wildlife, and park history. We truly enjoyed the tour and appreciated the substitution. He even volunteered to contact us the next morning and let us know which roads were open and he followed up on his promise. We highly recommend Wes!!

Thank you, Wes, for taking us to see the Smoky Mountains for the first time in our lives. It was an unforgettable experience, and we learned so much about the history of the mountains, the Elkmont Club, and the Cherokee communities. It was amazing to discover that elk can only be seen in the North Carolina part of the park, and we were lucky to see them during our visit! Wes went above and beyond to help us spot wildlife in the mountains, and we truly appreciate his effort and dedication. This trip was both educational and enjoyable, and we are so grateful for the experience. Highly recommend Wes to anyone looking to explore the Smoky Mountains!
