The driver/narrator was great! We wanted to get a National Park sticker but wasn’t aware the only shop during the tour was at Cadillac. Would be helpful if that was pointed out. Also, 15 minutes at each stop wasn’t enough time in my opinion.
Hat's off to Jack for a fantastic tour!

This 2.5 hour tour was amazing! The scenery was breath taking! Our stops at Cadillac Mountain and Thunder Hole did not disappoint. We heard the rumble of thunder and the photo ops were spectacular. However, by far the best part of the tour was our narrator Jack! He made our day with his wealth of knowledge, fun presentation of it and all out good spirit. Thank you, Jack- hope to see you again!

We did not enjoy the tour. We really wanted to learn about the natural beauty and history of the park. Our guide enjoyed making jokes, telling anecdotes, and going off on tangents. That being said, the rest of the tour group seemed to really enjoy his style.
2.5 hour bus tour was well worth the trip.

Our guide on the bus tour was excellent. He had a lot of knowledge on Acadia National Park and had a great personality.
