Traveler reviews
Fun and fast way to see Acadia National Park
This is a great way to see Acadia National Park if you don't have the time or inclination for a long hike on Cadillac Mountain. The tour stops by all the major sites- top of Cadillac Mountain, Jordan Pond, and Thunder Hole. We enjoy history and our guide was very knowledgeable about the history of the park. We learned many things we never would have had we visited the locations ourselves. Would definitely recommend for tourists who don't have a lot of time at Acadia National Park. Well worth the money.
Acadia National Park Bus Tour
Heather was our bus driver and was so funny and very informative. We got to see everything in Acadia National Park. It has an awesome botanical garden on grounds that we got to visit. I'm sure most people just drive by because you can't see it from the road. We have it all to ourselves. I highly recommend!
