The best of Acadia - Jeff was a great driver & tour guide. I felt like we saw the best parts of Arcadia & had wonderful photo ops. Parking is limited at Acadia so having someone who got us to the sites, so we could enjoy them stress free was priceless! Highly recommend!

Best Tour and Tour Guide! - Caleb was such a wonderful tour guide! We felt very welcomed and at ease with him, my girls ages 10 and 13 even laughed at his jokes and liked his snack selection! More importantly, as a local, Caleb was able to give us history about Acadia as well as Bar Harbor. He really made the tour of Acadia National Park a special and memorable day!

Private Tour was Perfect!!! - Pete was a wonderful guide!!! My sister and I had a delightful time as he shared his love for Acadia National Park!!! He even took us to the stables and the carriage road bridge.!! The views from Cadillac Mountain and our other stops along the way were spectacular!!! I heartily recommend his tour!!! Indeed, since we were able to board our cruise tender early - we contacted Pete as directed, and he was able to meet us a half-hour earlier than planned!!! We were delighted to find him waving to us in the parking lot - the beginning of a fun experience!!!

Helped because parking in the park was bad - The tour was ok, and I am glad we took it because of the lack of parking in the park. $600 was too much to charge. The car was dirty and the snacks were cheap and unhealthy. More effort for better snacks would have been appreciated. The car was difficult to get in and out of.

Great day in the park - Tim was great. We knew that we wanted to spend our time in Acadia instead of in town so he took us all over the park. We had plenty of time to do a short hike and hit the best spots. He had a wealth of information so it was interesting and fun. Highly recommend.

Mary P is a rock star. - We had Mary P as our fabulous tour guide. She knew everything about the park. She also gave us recommendations for all places to eat which we did and loved them all. We spent the 3 hrs laughing and learning so much.
Mary is a rock star guide. If you are lucky she may invite you out for "clinkies".
