  • 5Great day at Acadia with Asher

    Our day in Acadia with Asher was amazing! They had so much information to share, had every detail covered and really personalized the trip for us to hit everything we wanted and a few hidden gems we didn’t even know we wanted. The experience of Acadia is breathtaking in general but it would have been only a fraction of what it was if we hadn’t experienced it with Asher. Highly recommend!

  • 5Amazing tour and fantastic tour guide

    Asher was a very friendly and accommodating. Communication was top notch. Asher’s knowledge of Acadia was amazing, and we even saw a Barred owl on one of our hikes. Very good value! I recommend the tour and the guide. 10 out of 10

  • 5A Must Do For All (Highlight of Our Maine Trip)

    My mom and I had an incredible tour with Jess, and we will be reminiscing about it for years and years to come. Jess curated the perfect day for us - we saw all of the major spots and some extra special “hidden gems.” She reached out to us in advance of the trip to get a sense of our priorities and preferred pacing. How accommodating is that?! She arranged the lunch and it was incredible. We learned so much in a fun way. I can’t think of a better way to experience Acadia. I highly recommend this tour to anyone, and I personally am already thinking of booking another tour with this same group for a different National Park. I truly can’t wait to experience this again. Thank you to Jess and everyone for the highlight of our vacation! We appreciate the thoughtful approach and the most genuine, supreme hospitality!

    We had an amazing hike with Asher. It was raining but did not dampen the experience. Asher was so knowledgeable and kind spirited. The lunch was amazing and included many local favorites. We learned so much about this beautiful park.

  • 5Fantastic tour with Asher!

    My wife and I had a wonderful full day tour with Asher! Asher chose beautiful hikes, explained the various types of evergreens and differentiating them combined with the fascinating history of Acadia. Asher also took wonderful photographs of us and showed us the best spots to watch the sunrise on Cadillac Mountain. We highly recommend Asher and this tour!

About Bar Harbor

Bar Harbor is a coastal town on Mount Desert Island in Maine and the gateway to Acadia National Park, with granite peaks, rocky shores and lobster boats.

Bar Harbor sits on the north-east shore of Mount Desert Island on the coast of Maine, facing Frenchman Bay and a scatter of small islands. It grew as a summer retreat in the nineteenth century, when wealthy families built large seaside cottages here, and a fire in 1947 destroyed many of those houses. The Shore Path runs along the waterfront, and at low tide a sandbar leads out to Bar Island.

Top-ranked sights in Bar Harbor: Acadia National Park, Village Green, Criterion Theater.
