I believe, a local guide should provide an experience which brings you closer to Acadia than you would feel had you explored on your own. Acadia is brimming with a quiet, insistent magic. They named it for a paradise. They saved it at their own cost, so we could feel the effect of the light and hear the leaves singing. I will give more than a checklist of places or repeated stories. I'll share my home. Show you the Music of it. I hope the delight I take in this area will be contagious. -My tours are all private to your group. The vans are comfortable and clean. -You will have complete freedom as we explore, to adjust which stops we make, and how long we enjoy each location.
