Best tour & tour guide ever!!!

What a fabulous tour, everything about this day was top-notch. We especially LOVED our tour guide - MJ… the passion and knowledge that she has for this area was so obvious. We have been on many tours through the years but by far, this was the best experience from our pickup at the KOA campground to our drop off. MJ had a completely full bus - 34 people, but she treated everyone with downtime charm, individual courtesy and respect plus she was so fun! My husband is a total jokester and she was so quick to joke back with him every time! Amazing for someone that had so many team members to take care of and deal with. I would say she went above and beyond to make our day extra special! Thank you MJ!

GREAT experience!

GREAT experience! We booked our tour late the night before for 11:30 the next morning, and the instructions and communication couldn’t have been clearer! Our "legendary" tour guide, Lenny, was incredibly knowledgeable, fun, and funny. He made the experience even more enjoyable and really helped make the tour memorable. We would absolutely not hesitate to book this tour again! Highly recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
