Cadillac Mountain
Enjoy Acadia National Park's Cadillac Mountain. The drive up and down is breathtaking. From the comfort of your seat, you can see Bar Harbor village below and all the boats and islands out on Frenchman's bay. Enjoy a 20 minute walk around a cement & granite path at the summit if you so desire. Be sure to bring a wind breaker! The wind can really bring the temperature down at the top of Cadillac Mountain.
Sand Beach
Sand Beach is Acadia National Park's largest recreational beach for tourists. Many daring souls can't resist a dip in its very cold waters, usually in the hot months of July and August. Putting your feet in the icy Atlantic Ocean waters is a great activity any time of year. Maybe Sand Beach is better for enjoying a book, or perhaps working on your next landscape. The sound of the ocean waves will serenade you and become your muse!

On time, went over half hour, fun fun, snacks and water and so kind to a friend that had a handicap. Woody was very informative and made our trip memorable.

Non stop information. We really enjoyed the Cadillac Mountain, Sand Beach and learning about the history of Bar Harbor.

This was an excellent and thorough tour of Acadia and Bar Harbour. Woody is a delightful guide; a knowledgeable local who entertains and educates simultaneously. He was solicitous of our comfort and interests. He provided a variety of snacks and drinks and the car was clean and comfortable. I am a seasoned traveler and this was one of the best tour experiences I’ve had. Highly recommended!

This was a super great tour with Woody. Let me tell you that Woody is a head full of so many interesting facts and was so much fun to have this tour with. We had questions galore and he was able to answer all of them and then some. He picked us up at our hotel equipped with snacks and drinks for us. We had great jokes and lots of laughs with Woody and he had a lot of suggestions for us to continue our stay in Bar Harbor. Thank you Woody for the great time and also the concern for my hat LOL!!! Take this tour with Woody. You will be happy you did!!
