Better than Booking through the Cruiseline!!! - Our driver, Nandesh #68…aka ‘Nick’ was wonderful! The taxi was cleaned and well maintained. We were very unsure what we wanted to do or where we could go, given we got off the cruise ship a little later than everyone else that day. He worked with us & we were able to go up to the highest most beautiful point for viewing near the ski resort, and all the way down to the beach in the Park. We saw a lot, and really crammed it all in. We didn’t stop for lunch, and didn’t linger in hopes to see as much as we could - he was fine with at that! We stopped at several photo op points, a chocolate shop, viewed a glass blowing demo, and more. Only negative was that we were told we could use a credit card before we jumped in the car, and as we wrapped up after 5 hours, we were told we needed to pay cash. We couldn’t do that so we had to wait for another driver with a square app payment machine to meet us in town.

Do it!!! - This tour was just beautiful. The scenery is amazing and far exceeded our expectations. Manny was our driver and he was an expert iPhone picture taker and we got so many great shots just because he was our tour guide. I would definitely recommend.

Great, beautiful flexible tour - We had a great small group (6) tour with Manny who really knew the whole area and was very personable. The colors were coming in and he took us to several view points that were amazingly beautiful. He went way out of the way to help us find some tourism items we were looking for and recommended a great place for lunch. He was very flexible and gave us options for what to see, how long to stop, etc. Highly recommend

Cabot trail excursion - J&D was very fun. We booked this separate from our ship and he gave us good advice and recommended a great cafe for lunch. He made sure we got back to the shop on time and catered to our special requests.

Gorgeous scenery with nice driver. - Mo was very nice and a gentleman at all times. It would have been helpful if he had been a bit more knowledgeable about local history, flora and fauna. Also, we would have appreciated freshly cleaned windows.

Vehicle too small - I am 6’2” tall….this van was way too cramped for a 5-6 hour tour. Driver was very personable but did not follow road speed signs well!
