The Blue Ridge Mountains stand as one of the world’s most ancient mountain ranges, born from the clash of tectonic plates eons ago. The region’s hazy peaks, curvaceous routes, and sweeping verdant landscapes make the blue mountain parkway one of the most scenic drives in the USA.
During your exclusive outing, your escort would steer you through the mountains on the Blue Ridge Parkway, enabling you to savor numerous picturesque scenes and partake in two hikes. You’d pause for a meal (cost not factored) in a charming town, where your escort would suggest an ideal location for sumptuous Southern cuisine and warmth.
After spending a day discovering the towns dispersed along the freeway and the imposing geological structures of the ridge, your escort will chauffeur you back to your lodging in Asheville.
