Great day of exploring in Acadia National Park

This tour was a great way to see Acadia national park. Our guide Nathan was very knowledgeable about the area. He took us to the well known areas in the park and also to some areas we would not have discovered on our own. We had lots of opportunities to get out and explore many areas in the park. We did this trip our first day in Bar Harbor. Nathan also gave us suggestions for places we could visit on our own during the rest of our trip. This is a perfect trip for anyone that wants to see the park without having to navigate it on their own.

Christine_H, Sep 2026

Great time riding the carriage trails!

My daughter and I were scheduled for a full day e-bike rental. We picked up our bikes at 10:00 AM in Bar Harbor. My daughter reviewed her plan with the bike rental staff who gave us a highlighted map of our bike tour. After a couple of minutes of e-bike training we were ready to go. The bike shop is just 1.5 miles from Duck Brook Bridge entrance. We road on many carriage roads including eagle lake, hadlock lake, Jordan Pond and many more. The e-bikes were great! We ended up riding 32 miles with about 33% battery life left. We had a great time! Remember to bring water and snacks. Take plenty of breaks and enjoy the beautiful views! I highly recommend this activity! For reference, my daughter is 32 and I’m 65. If I can do it anyone can!

Amy_R, Jun 2026

Super fun E-Bike experience

This was a very fun experience. The four hours just flew by. It was also nice that they had an employee out on the trails as two of us needed a battery swap. Bigger guys run the battery down faster. What’s nice is that you go at your own pace. If you want to stop then you just stop for as long as you want.
