Take this BEAUTIFUL tour if you’re visiting without a car.

Published on Feb, 2025

Beautiful scenery and Kevin graciously made an extra stop for views that my handicapped husband could not see on the scheduled walk. Kevin was knowledgeable and had a great sense of humor and interesting stories. He made the trip fun with Lord of the Rings costumes and set up a nice tea with warm sandwiches and fruit. Thank you Kevin and Altitude tours.
