This trip was excellent. It was the highlight of our visit. The guide was knowledgeable & friendly. I think his name was Brian I would recommend this tour for anyone that wants to see waterfalls

Great views of waterfalls and forest environments.

Bob_N, Sep 2023

Erica was a fantastic guide taking us to some very cool waterfalls and letting us experience the temperate rain forest environment. Great little hikes back to a couple of the falls with gorgeous scenery. Erica was quick to give us lots of info on the area and sites. Really glad we signed up for this excursion and highly recommend for everyone. We would do it again on our next visit and will definitely look into other tours they provide and especially ones headed up by Erica. Thanks!

Waterfalls with a wonderful guide!

How lucky were we to have another fabulous hike guided by Erica! So many gorgeous views and waterfalls and she has plenty of interesting facts to share about each location. Erica treats everyone like an old friend. She the is the best!

Connecting with Nature!

We were able to get started early and visited 3 waterfalls. Our guide was caring and really wanted us to understand the forest! We moved through the hike with a purpose too!

Excellent!

A Great Set of Little Hikes with Waterfalls to Reward!

The communication was outstanding! We were the only 3 going for the morning tour and fortunately, Erika our guide, didn’t have an afternoon tour. Our Nav took us on the Blue Ridge Parkway which made our trip from Saluda to Pisgah 30 mins longer. Erika had texted us the pm before to confirm. She stayed at least 20 mins and then came back for us after she got our text. We had no phone/text service on the BRP. The company had also given us a little later start as well. Great Folks!! The tour was wonderful!! Erika was so enthusiastic and knew her stuff. Two of the falls were off the beaten track and you would likely not be able to find them unless you knew the area which makes this tour a Gem! We are older and the hikes were just right for us. They provide walking sticks (a must for us), water, snacks, and bug spray if you needed it. It was a great intro into what the area had to offer. It also had some hidden finds which really makes it interesting for all folks of any age.
