It was an awesome experience! - Ms Debbie is fabulous! She is very passionate, patient and knowledgeable. It was a great experience seeing Great Smoky Mountains with her. We have learned a lot and knew some interesting history facts. Highly recommended.

We Loved this Hike! - Lucy took us and 2 of our 5 year old kids on this hike and it was amazing. She was so friendly, knowledgeable and patient. I think the best part was sampling the edible plants! It was a great experience for adults and children alike. I would definitely return and try another one of their hikes as well!

Great time with Brooke - Brooke was fantastic with my five year old daughter. She was patient while my daughter tallied all the wild flowers Brooke shared with us. She played a senses game with her and had her taste the different plants that were edible. We happened to be the only two on the walk and she accommodated and earlier time which was better for us. We had a great time!

Kids and Adult fun entertaining hike - Miss Debbie was amazing with the kids and answered all their questions. We learned things we didn’t know and the hike was easy. All of us had no issues hiking and we’re keep entertained with her stories. If you have kids and want to do a hike I would recommend this one. When back in town we would do another with them.

Fun and engaging morning hike good for kids and adults alike! - Super easy and clear directions given during booking made finding the destination simple and straightforward. Debbie was a pleasure to work with right from the start, extremely engaging and attentive to the kids, and so knowledgeable with her background as a park ranger. She was even OK with our many photo ops, and my five year old’s incessant need to talk constantly. She really kept my seven year old’s interest. Only caveat was that from our cabin in pigeon Forge it was a 45 minute drive, but it was a beautiful road nonetheless.

So Much Fun - Our family had an excellent hike in the Smoky Mountains! It is one of my favorite memories from the trip. Our trail guide was fantastic x10! He was so engaging, knowledgeable, and fun. Our little explorers want to know even more about nature now. Thank you!

Perfect for preschoolers - We highly recommend the children’s hike with A Walk in the Woods! My 3 and 5 year old learned a ton, and had so much fun. Our guide Megan took us on a hike perfect for my preschoolers but also fun and informative for the adults in the family. W caught salamanders and found evidence of bears that we never would have noticed without Megan pointing it out. This was definitely a highlight of our trip!
