Rich was the best!!!

Rich asked what you would prefer to see. Recommended excellent places. He was patient and didn’t rush us with our time at stops. Rich had very friendly upbeat personality! Could not have gone hiking in perfect spots the following day without his help. Thank you

A Memorable 3 Hours in the Blue Ridge Mountains

We had a wonderful time on our Blue Ridge Mountain tour with Rich and his sweet dog, Meatball. Rich was an interesting and engaging guide who made the 3 hours fly by. The scenery was absolutely spectacular, and having Meatball along added a special touch. All in all, it was a thoroughly enjoyable tour that we would happily recommend to others.

Great guide, great experience!

Richard (and his chocolate lab co-pilot, Meatball) were awesome! Incredibly knowledgeable, very accommodating, and made the tour a lot of fun for a mixed-age group (kids to seniors). I would highly recommend this for anyone looking to experience the mountains.

Could not have been better.

Great tour with our driver Rich and his companion dog Meatball. Rich was knowledgeable, interactive, informative and sensitive to the need of his riders. Crying babies and reluctant adults, we could not have asked for a better experience.

If you do nothing else, DO THIS TOUR!

By far, the most fun, educational, exhilarating tour I’ve been on in a long time. Rich was incredible, informational, accommodating and open to creating the perfect adventure. We had a family of 13, ranging from a 2 year old to a 70+ year old and let me tell you, we all had a BLAST! While Rich was awesome, I’d be remiss if I didn’t mention the real star of the show, Meatball, Rich’s therapy dog. Can’t say enough wonderful things about this tour, tour guides (because Meatball is included, of course) and our incredible experience! 10/10.
