Stress-free solution! - Just heading home after an amazing trip to Maine! We booked a full day, private tour of Acadia with Asher - mostly to alleviate the stress/complexity of trying to navigate an unknown place, crowds, and parking with 3 kids, but also to make the most of our one day of hiking in the park. It was the best decision we could have made! Asher rose to the occasion - answering our 7-yr old’s rapid-fire questions and hours of commentary with patience and a smile! We are forever grateful for Asher’s calm demeanor throughout the trip, and for listening and adapting to our group’s abilities and dietary preferences (AND for also going the extra mile at the end of the tour after hearing of our kids’ excitement of searching for sea glass on vacation). Dinner recommendation for that evening was spot-on, as well, as we enjoyed watching the sun set/pink sky from our table on the water with *delicious* lobster and mussels! Thank you, again! Would definitely recommend the tour, and if/when we return - we will certainly look for another guided tour with Asher/this company in the future.

This was the best tour... - This was the best tour hike that our family of three (12yo) have ever taken. It was catered to our skill level. We were able to see all that we wanted to see including some local secret hiking spots. The picnic lunch was also perfect!

Great for families - Would definitely recommend this tour. Asher was an excellent tour guide - extremely knowledgeable and fun to spend the day with. Our elementary aged kiddos loved the hikes, and so did the adults. Spotting a barred owl was a highlight for everyone. Thanks for adding to the magic of our Acadia trip!

Amazon’ Acadia - We did the Acadia full day tour with Asher - they were a wonderful tour guide! We got lucky with the weather and were able to hit all the highlights of Acadia National Park. It was a good mix of hiking, taking in the sites & learning all about the history/fun facts of the park. We loved it and would do it again in a heartbeat!

A MUST! - This tour was worth every penny! If you are planning a trip to Acadia this private hiking tour is a must. Our guide, Kiki, was phenomenal! She catered the day around hikes and sites that were perfect for our family. The lunch was also top notch and was the perfect picnic. 5 stars for Kiki!

A quality experience and solid tour! - We rely on tours all over the US to reduce stress and to make the most of our days. Our recent tour with Asher was amazing! We could not have asked for a better tour guide for our large family of 2 adults and 7 kids! We all enjoyed the knowledge Asher shared and appreciated their friendly, kind, and helpful nature. We enjoyed a lovely picnic lunch that Asher set-up for us at a local park. We all enjoyed spending the day with Asher exploring the park and the great hikes they took us on. . I highly recommend this tour company and Asher! Thanks for everything--this definitely was a good trip! :)

Great family trip - We had a great experience in Acadia. Asher was a phenomenal guide- very engaging, attentive, and intentional. They met us where the family was physically and catered the trip to ensure everyone felt included. Highly recommend.

Priceless Memories - I was not sure how the tour would go for me because I am not a strong hiker, but Asher’s knowledge and thoughtfulness created the perfect itinerary that allowed me to participate in the excursions and make priceless memories with my family.
