Great guide. We thought the hike was fairly easy. My son and I are runners age 20 and 62. My concerns are about falling and felt this hike had a nice mix of traversing terrain and beauty. I feel our guide would have adapted the hike for beginners. However come prepared.

Amazing hike. Our tour guy was super knowledgeable and enjoys what he does! We will for sure be looking to book another one in the future!

Well worth it. We are city people and wanted a knowledgeable guide to take us a bit deeper into the park than we might go by ourselves. We enjoyed a beautiful day along the trail, the river, saw deer, visited a beautiful waterfall. Debbie was a terrific guide and companion, teaching us about the history, wildlife and foliage along our hike. Recommend.

Debbie was a wonderful tour guide. She was knowledgeable and real. We had a great time and learned a lot. Beautiful sites to see in the Smokies!

Great experience. Got to see a bear, wild turkeys, and a white tale deer. Our guide took the time to explain some of the habitat so we could catch our breath. Would recommend being I good physical condition to walk the uneven trails. Had a great time.

Great hike! Tour guide TJ was very knowledgeable and entertaining as well! Terrain was a bit challenging but distance and elevation was very manageable. Beautiful water views. Highly recommend!

As a novice hiker, this is not an easy hike. Our guide was very patient, as we were late to begin with and then I held up the group, taking much more time to do the hike than others. But he always stopped to let us catch up. Since we were in the back, we didn’t hear everything, but our guide did stop and talk about the area, which we appreciated. It’s a beautiful hike and well worth your time. Just make sure you can do a more strenuous hike. Obviously it’s on a mountain, so its downhill and uphill, on uneven terrain. The uphill was killer for me. Would I do it again, Yes, Yes, Yes, however, I will make sure I am in better shape by doing several flights of stairs before I go again. Thanks for a lasting memory!!

We were surprised to learn this was a private tour. Our guide TJ couldn’t be more patient, knowledgeable, friendly and respectful!!! You’d be lucky to have him be your guide. He turned an ordinary hike into an extraordinary experience!!! He quickly spotted things we would have missed and shared historical, cultural and botanical stories with us. Don’t miss this hike with TJ!

Corian was an excellent guide full of interesting information about the trees, flora, animals and history of the Great Smokey Mountains. She was well equipped and knew the terrain. Can’t wait to do another hike very soon.
