My husband and I reserved a tour of Catawba falls in Asheville. Our guide Randy was very knowledgeable, energetic, and attentive to our small group. Randy shared interesting facts about the local plant life that was very educational and fun. He made sure we were well looked after and ready to extend a support arm while traversing uneven terrain. The falls were breathtaking and Randy was quick to offer taking a picture of us with the beautiful backdrop. I highly recommend this tour.
– Tiffany B., TripAdvisorTake the Waterfall Tour! We saw several waterfalls we never would have found on our own. The guide, who was also the owner, was informative about all sorts of history, topography, weather, plants and animals and was charming. She accommodated the varying physical abilities of the people on our tour with grace and kindness. I'd rate it "medium" in terms of physical requirements. Thanks for a great time!
– ChaztownFan., TripAdvisorWhat a wonderful tour with Randy to Catawba Falls! He was that perfect combination of friendly and professional. And he was extremely knowledgeable about the area. Beautiful scenery along the way made for a relaxing and enjoyable excursion. This tour was the perfect length, and far exceeded our expectations. I heartily recommend Asheville Hiking Tours. We'll be sure to look you up again the next time we're in the area for another outdoor adventure.
– msjenn, TripAdvisorWe were picked up at our apartment and then got the other participants. We spent 4 hours learning about the mountains and hiking to 3 different waterfall s. It was a great way to see and learn about the area in a way we never could have done on our own. Randy was a great guide. He loves his work and Asheville and it shows!
– jenawilliams, TripAdvisorThis made Asheville hiking easy! If you don't want to spend too much time planning and mapping out a route, this is the way to go. We met Randy at and easy to find location and everything else was taken care of. He was informative, but no overly talkative to take away from the scenery.
– Katie L., TripAdvisorThis was an excellent tour! Our tour guide Amanda was great! She was knowledgeable of the plants found along the trail and gave us useful information about how they can be used. She also made sure that we moved at a comfortable pace, which was very reassuring for my mom, and gave us lots of fun facts and stories about the area we were exploring. I would recommend this tour for anyone wanting to explore waterfalls in Asheville with a knowledgeable guide.
– Crystal B., TripAdvisorThe 4.5 tour with Jennifer was in a word: spectacular. We saw a multitude of views, saw impressive waterfalls, and learned a bit about how the area developed millions of years ago. Jennifer was friendly, took great care of the group, and focused on ensuring we had a successful tour. I would highly recommend Jennifer’s company to anyone who spends time in Asheville.
