Cat did a great job for being a new Jeep tour guide! We did the same tour last year (in ‘25) and it was actually somewhat better though, with a couple more stops and photo ops. We stopped at Metcalf Bottoms picnic area for some beautiful pics of the river. I was hoping to do that again this year. It was still a great trip and we saw two bears! Highly recommend!
5Great
Our twit was a lot of fun! Our guide. Brian was also very good. We had an excellent time!
5An enjoyable viewing and learning excursionn
Our guide Cat gave us a great Smoky Mountains tour. Learned a lot from her about the park and the National Park system in general. Cat is a very engaging, interesting, and customer-friendly guide who knows a lot about the park and Pigeon Forge. I was able to join the tour at the last minute and was very happy with the fantastic scenery and the whole experience. Got a great overview of some hiking spots I would like to try next time I visit the park. The tour was worth every penny and more.
5My sister and I took the...
My sister and I took the Newfound Gap tour and loved it! Three hours of a relaxing drive through the Smokey Mountains. David was our driver and he is very knowledgeable about the history of the area. He is very friendly and we enjoyed it so much. When we left at noon that day, it was 88° and when we reached the top of the mountain it was 66°. Don't forget to bring a jacket!
4Nice way to spend the afternoon.
Interesting tour with a lot of local facts. Comfortable jeep. Knowledgable guide who provided local information, answered questions and made sure all guests were taken care of. Temperature changes to cooler from Pigeon Forge to the top of the park at Newfound gap. Multiple stops to take photos. David did an outstanding job of driving and providing facts and information about the park, places to eat and attractions. We took the noon trip and were back to the starting point slightly before 3 pm.
5Great tour for an introduction to the Smokie Mountains
The views are wonderful. Our guide David was delightful. Lots of history & interesting stories about the region. Its a great way to get an overview of the Smoke Mountain National park. Lots of ideas of places to back & visit or hike on your own.
