Best Acadia National Park Tour

Mark was a great guide and tailored our tour to the seven people on board. We stopped everywhere we wanted and had a great lunch. There is so much to see in the Acadia National park and the history was fantastic.

Fun Tour of Bar Harbor and Acadia Park

My wife and I had a rather arduous hike, completing the Great Head Trail one morning, but had scheduled this tour for the afternoon that was interesting, fun and more relaxing! Sean was our guide, and we had a convenient pick up right from our hotel. Highlights of the tour were Cadillac Mountain and Jordan Pond. Thunder Hole was amazing, too. My wife and I were both on a nearby platform to observe, and a rogue wave crashed through the rocks, drenching us with 43 degree Atlantic Ocean water! We thought it was hilarious, and fortunately our guide had a towel for us. But that certainly wasn't a normal occurrence. Not only were the sights beautiful, but Sean provided a lot of relevant historical background about Acadia Park which made it even more interesting. The tour had a nice, relaxing end in Bar Harbor with some tasty warm lobster rolls. Would highly recommend.

Acadia Park

Sean was a great guide. He was very knowledgable. Answered all of our questions. Had bottled water in the van. The tour included multiple stops for pictures and concluded with a wonderful lobster roll lunch on the water front.
