5.00This is a wonderful Four Hour Tour of Acadia National Park! We highly recommend taking this tour to learn about many aspects of the park. We were in the woods, on the coast, up at the top of the mountain, under and over one of the many stone bridges, and so much more. Our Driver, Pete, was one of the most professional tour guides we have ever had. Not only did he have a carefully-crafted plan, he also answered every question and tailored our stops and our timing to what the group wanted. Thunder Hole and the coast was simply amazing. Take this tour. You will not be disappointed, and in four hours, you will learn and see a tremendous amount about one of our nation's largest national parks.
Great Acadia trip with Pete!
