It was a wonderful trip through the National Park. My husband got car sick with all the curves and turns. But that was not because of the driver, it’s just the way you wind thru the mountains. It was very beautiful and Brian our tour guide was very knowledgable about the. National Park of the Smokey Mountains. Thank you

The views of the park were nice and reaching the highest point that the Jeep tour was breathtaking. However the trip outside the park through Wears Valley and beyond seemed to be added to justify the cost. I don’t believe it was worth the cost.
Susan_H, Aug 2024
Our driver was Mark. He was very entertaining and informative. Most importantly was an excellent driver. He took us offroad for an exciting ride. We didn't get to see any bears, but he shared his video of bears coming out from underneath his cabin porch. It was an exciting 3 hours. It was worth it. Thank you!

We had a blast on the jeep tour! My oldest boys normally get car sick when we drive our 12 passenger van in the national park. They were able to enjoy this and never felt uneasy. The guide was very knowledgeable and fun. From ages 72 down to 5, we all agree it was the highlight of our vacation! Yes it’s expensive, but we found it totally worth it! (Kids ages: 18, 18, 13, 11, 9, & 5)

Not what we expected at all…thought it would be an off-road experience on small jeeps to see waterfalls and back-country instead of a 10 person vehicular that stuck to the main roads (which we could have done in our own car)! The guide was excellent…very knowledge, friendly, and helpful—not his fault the trip was not good! He did take us down a rough road for about 10 min. Spent too much time going thru Townsend rather than the park.
Response from Host, Apr 2024
Thank you for the review, our guides do there best to deliver the most exciting adventure in the Great Smoky Mountains. We look forward to your return visit on a different tour. Please let the guide know before the tour what exactly you personally would like to see and do. They work hard to please everyone. Happy Trails!

We had the best guide and his adorable service dog, Rich and Meatball. Rich was very knowledgeable about everything. He made the time informative and fun. We will definitely do it again with our grandsons

Our driver, Cole was excellent. We wanted to see the beautiful fall foliage and he accommodated our request. Cole made the drive very enjoyable by interacting with us. I highly recommend this tour and Cole as your driver. It was a perfect way to begin our day.
Tawnee_C, Oct 2022
Jeff was an amazing guide. We loved every second of our tour, especially the four wheel off roading portion. It was freezing cold and Jeff was prepared with blankets to keep us comfortable. 10/10
Sue_H, Oct 2022
Our drive personable and funny. Kept asking if everyone was ok. Great photo ops on the bridges.
Enjoyed!
James_S, Oct 2022
The people we met on the tour. We had a blast! We “all”, Loved Cole!! I heard bad reviews of the off road part of the trip, but, We Loved it. Yes we would go again!!
marianne_t, Oct 2022
The guide was great. The ride not so great. You face inside and you can’t see a thing as you go up the mountain. There were two stops, both too short. While we liked our guide, the experience was disappointing.
Alfred_C, Oct 2022
Breathtaking views! Valuable insight and understanding of the park from the guide. So much to see and if we go back on our own I feel that I can find the interesting places to visit and hike.
Alice_V, Oct 2022
Guide was very friendly and personable. He made the tour for us as he shared his knowledge with our group.
We could live without the off road 4- wheel trip at the end of tour though. Actually, we both were a little nauseated after this.
Maybe a price for the tour minus the off road and just let people off on your way by meeting place. Then charge 25.00 dollars for those who want to do the off-road episode.
