Why take this tour?

This tour is a great way to experience a true Blue Ridge Mountain sunset and the BEST panoramic mountain views! A quick drive from Downtown Asheville, this sunset tour does double duty, offering both beautiful Parkway scenery from our tour vehicle (transportation include) AND the outstanding reward of summit views you will feel you have “earned” after a true moderate Blue Ridge Mountain hike! Your guide will identify the many landmarks visible throughout the journey, and offer their expert interpretation of the flora, fauna, and history of the Southern Appalachian range.

About operator:

Let the local experts guide you to our favorite “secret spots” along the Blue Ridge Parkway and in our National Forests. Home to 250+ waterfalls and miles of hiking trails, the stunning scenery does not disappoint. Our tours provide a unique blend of storytelling, sightseeing and nature discovery! We visit historical sights and 150-foot waterfalls, and even enjoy wild food foraging on all of our tours. Our aim to provide a soul-nurturing experience in the outdoors is the reason why our guests return to experience these mountains with us, again and again! If you have a half day to spend with us, we recommend the Waterfalls and Blue Ridge Parkway Tour so you can capture multiple highlights of western North Carolina, including the iconic Blue Ridge Parkway, historic sites and “secret” hidden waterfalls. For those who have just a few hours to spend with us, we recommend the Guided 2-Hour Waterfall Hike. Private Tours, fully customizable, are also available and offer a range of hikes!
