The scenery was breathtaking, the food delicious, and everyone was friendly. It was truly fun, relaxing, and every bit worth the time taken off work. The mountains are my very favorite and I look forward to more opportunities. Thank you!

Another great trip by Capitol Tours. Had a great time, enjoyed Jeter Mountain Farm Orchards. The waterfall at Pearson's Falls was worth the hike to get to. Mary as usual goes out of her way to make you feel included. Thanks Capitol Tours!! (Didn't leave a review for the 43rd Anniversary tour but it was great, loved the Pink Jeep Tour, the shows and the delicious food, the mountains were gorgeous).
