Great experience....stunning scenery!!
Denisa_L, October 2026
The scenery is spectacular. The guide well informed and playfully silly. The driver has a fascinating history. Overall a great experience!!
★★★★★Viator review
In the fall, they go down...
Christina_S, October 2026
In the fall, they go down to one bus so it's 2 1/2 hours of wait time between buses at a single stop. Sometimes the buses, are a few minutes early.

Would not recommend
Kasandra_A, October 2026
What was supposed to be a 2 hour ride ended up being 3.5 hours! The seats are not that comfortable to sit in for that long of a time, we were stuck in traffic not moving for a long time. I would assume that doing these tour buses they would know the best times to set the tours up to finding the best routes... Who knew a thursday afternoon at 2pm would be an awful idea?! Also we got hit close to the face almost by tree branches multiple times. We were so disappointed, our parked car passed it's parking limit time, and we missed our dinner reservations
