Incredible Experience hiking in the most beautiful places - This trip was everything I hoped it would be and more. The beauty of the different waterfalls was something to be experienced and felt. The guides were simply excellent and so knowledgeable. A few places were tricky to navigate, but they knew exactly how to lead us through.

Fun, cool trip - We had a great time on this trip. Both Jacob and Chayton were friendly and knowledgeable. The hike at the old stone fort was nice and recommends to everyone who likes waterfalls and hiking.
Rutledge falls was a cool place to visit and is also recommended.
The lunch at Common Johns brewery was also good and worth mentioning.
Overall the trip was lot of fun and I recommend it to all travellers looking for outdoor fun.
Jacob and Chayton, thanks to you for making the trip comfortable and fun. Hope to see you guys again. Jacob I wish you success in music scene.

Great for solo travelers - This was the highlight of my day. Dylan and Jacob were professional, friendly and very knowledgeable. The complimentary lunch was the cherry on top! My sandwich was delicious and so was the beer made right there at the brewery. I would do this again in a heartbeat. 10/10 experience.

Great getaway from downtown Nashville - We are an active group that wanted something fun that allowed us to see more of Tennessee other than just downtown Nashville on our trip and this was perfect. Dylan was knowledgeable and so friendly. The van was comfortable for the ride to and from the waterfalls, and the brewery was great! The first stop at Old Stone Fort State Park had some really interesting history and was a nice walk. The second stop where you could swim was very busy as it was peak summer, but still enjoyable - the water was refreshingly cold. Bring water shoes if you plan to get in the water!

Absolutely amazing places and really happy I picked this one too - Absolutely brilliant! The tour guides were ace and super informative, we went to 4 different waterfalls and all of them were beautiful, the brewery and their food was brilliant. Never had a rueben sandwich before but can confirm it was lovely!
The others on the tour were really nice people and for someone who was travelling solo it was so nice to be able to chat to so many people like I did
Will go again next time I come over and take a cooler and make a full day of it!
