No Moose in Bar Harbor! - Our tour guide was Katherine and she was wonderful! Took us around the “otter” way and learned never to buy anything with a moose on it in Bar Harbor! (laughing)
Would recommend tour to any cruise ship passenger (NCL Gem) two hours after arriving in port. Great price and great experience! We had a group of 5 and it was perfect!

Excellent - Excellent tour with Caleb. He was very knowledgeable and got us into crowded spots to make sure we saw everything. We saw and learned many things we would have missed on our own.

Family summer vacation - Wonderful tour! Our guide, Jeff was great. He arrived on time in a comfortable and clean minivan stocked with water and snacks for our family of five. He is helpful, fun, and informative. We learned about the park sites and history. He gave us time to enjoy some of the top sights. He also gave helpful suggestions for our time in Bar Harbor. Highly recommend if you wish to see the beauty of Acadia in a manner that is easy for kids or anyone with physical limitations and avoid the hassles of park passes and parking during the crowded summer season. Great experience both parents and all kids give it 5 stars. Thank you

Great way to appreciate Acadia - Loved our tour! Jeff was a perfect guide— great knowledge of Acadia and truly someone who appreciates the natural beauty of the area. Jeff gave us lots of views we wouldn’t have thought to see on our own. Our only wish was the tour was 4-5 hours as we had to move on quicker than we would have preferred. Great way to see the park!

Good time despite the weather - The weather was foggy and rainy. Our guide, Mary, was knowledgeable and flexible. She did a good job despite the weather. Looking forward to returning someday to see the views. We’ll ask for Mary.

Great Introduction to Acadia - Had a great tour with Jeff! He was personable and knowledgeable and the tour offered us the perfect opportunity to get comfortable with the park before we braved it ourselves. We had a better experience on our own after seeing the parking situations and hot spots at different times throughout the park. We would definitely recommend this tour at the start of your trip if you are a first timer!! Also the history was really great…we actually purchased the book he suggested, Lost Bar Harbor, to read more about the history that interested us most.

Tour of Acadia National Park - Private Driver - Mary took us through a wonderfully historic and scenic tour of Acadia National Park. We were able to stop at the top sites, walk trails, explore gift shops and learned so much about the park that we would not have known by exploring on our own. We even planned our hike of the Ocean Trail with her for the next day. She was on time, informed and incredibly friendly. I loved being able to drive the whole park loop and figure out where we wanted to go the next day. I would highly recommend their services. Water and plenty of snacks were provided as well.
