“I just wanted to say “THANKS” for the extra efforts to arrange the Cades Cove Tour for us on Saturday. Bob was a great host/guide and did an awesome job (despite the continuous rain!!!!) to make our trip a memorable event. Our friends thoroughly enjoyed it.”
“Thank you for the professional, reliable and gracious services you always offer us for our groups too!”
““Awesome – saw 4 bears. Our guide was wonderful!”
“We enjoyed the tour very much. We learned a lot about the Cove, and its history. It was my daughter and grand children first visit to the Cove. She was amazed with all the things she learned. My grandkids enjoyed learning about the World War 11 memorial tree. And played with the toys Mike made and gave to them all the way back to the cabin. They never put them down. It was very educational, even though we have visited the Cove before we learned new things about it. Mike is a very good tour guide and would not only recommend the tour to other visitors but would take other tours too. I hope you continue to offer this tour and other tours. I also want to tell you that the lunch was great. The fresh fruit especially good.”
