          Historic Natchez private tour
          Our historic Natchez full day private tour was excellent. Dennis our guide was very informative. We were able to go at our own pace. We were able to see every thing we wanted too in one day. I would highly recommend. Thank you for a great tour.

          Discovering Maine
          What a great private tour of Arcadia National Park and Maine. AJ, our tour guide was friendly, professional and a safe driver. He made the tour interesting by adding some of his childhood memories of our route and places we visited. As we are not shoppers, except for LL Bean which he added for us, but more like to learn about the history and geography, he planned our visit around our interests. He was also a great photographer and took many wonderful photographs for us that will provide cherished memories of Maine.

          Perfect 🤩 tour for our annual Friends trip!
          We had a wonderful tour from Portland to Acadia with our wonderful guide AJ. He took us to LL Beans in Freeport , Camden, Bar Harbor and Acadia and back to Portland in one memorable day. AJ took us to some very special areas where the scenery and the meals were amazing. He provided snacks and drinks and frequent stops for photos and shopping and even acted as our personal photographer assuring that our memories of the trip were perfect. We would definitely use this touring company again . Many thanks from the “Fleetville 5” !

          A worthwhile and fun tour.
          We had a personalized tour of the city highlights in air conditioned comfort. Our guide used a speaker system that we could hear clearly and she shared a great amount of history of the sights, buildings, and people. We were picked up from our hotel promptly, had good conversation, and had our questions answered.

          Not the old standard tour
          Had a great experience. Tour operator went out of his way to insure that he incorporated the things we wanted to see and not just a standard one tourist stop to the next.

          Excellent Tour!!
          We booked a private day tour for two couples from Portland, Maine, to Acadia National Park and back. Our tour guide was AJ, one of the owners of Wicked Wonders Tours. He did a fantastic job. We were very specific about what we wanted to see and do and he did an excellent job crossing everything off the list. It was a long day but AJ was great company. We would whole-heartedly recommend Wicked Wonders Tours.

          Great lower loop views
          Our guide Nick was great. He modified the locations so he didn’t show us places we had already seen. He gave us ample time at each location for us to view. At the end of the trip Nick did an unplanned stop at a location where he said “I think you will like this” and he was right.

          One day in Yellowstone
          We only had 1 day to spend in Yellowstone and Jason made sure we hit all the highlights. We could never have seen all that we did on our own. Tour was great and highly recommend Jason.

          Yellowstone Magic!
          Took private Upper and Lower Loop Yellowstone tours with Jason. Jason was an awesome guide! He picked us up bright and early from our lodge in W Yellowstone. His knowledge of the park was amazing ! He took us to all the popular spots in the park and even included some extra stops to see unique spots- ie. “Chocolate fountain spring”. Jason had a variety of drinks and snacks available and knew all the restroom spots in the park! My husband and I never would have managed to see so much of the park over two days without Jason! Yellowstone is truly a magical place and a must see!

          Sensational sights!
          Nick was an awesome guide. He tailored the tour to our desires and needs, even used a different vehicle so we would not have trouble getting in and out. We had a wonderful time and saw everything we wanted to see and more. Thank you for a great experience!

          More than Fun
          We totally enjoyed our day and were able to see so much beauty that the coast has to offer in Maine. AJ was very knowledgeable and so easy to talk with. He made our trip here something to have good memories of what we did. Thank you AJ!!

          Great tour guide (Nick) and beautiful weather to enjoy the Upper Loop. Nick’s experience helped us avoid the crowds (as much as humanly possible). Very enjoyable day!!

          Awesome Yellowstone tour
          This was an awesome tour. The tour guide, Jason Jones, was very knowledgeable about the history of the park, wildlife sightings, and times of the geyser eruptions. He went above and beyond what was expected. It was a cold, rainy day on the day of our excursion, but it was well worth every penny!

          This was an intimate look at many small villages and towns in the coastal Maine area.
          We really enjoyed this trip we started off going to the Portland head lighthouse and also saw the Fort Williams. We then headed up to Freeport and spent some nice time at the L.L. Bean company store there and we also got some information from our dad about the impact available being in the area. We also went to the Andros Scoggins bridge, which was built in 1892 and it was tied directly to the local textile industry. We went to the town of Bath to see the Tori gate, which was symbolic of a sister city relationship with a small town in Japan. We also drove by the sprawling Bath Iron Works plant that builds ships for the US government. In Boothbay, we had a wonderful lunch at the tugboat Inn then we we went on a walk around Boothbay tourist area to go in some of the shops and buy a few souvenirs and cards quaint beautiful little town. from there, we went to the botanical gardens and we spent over an hour walking around there. We saw two of the large wooden troll structures, which were so cute and unique. We did not find all of them as the whole complex covers 300 acres, but we did spend a couple of hours there, our last stop was fort Edgecombe, which was built in 1809. It is the oldest octagon structure still standing in the United States. It was a block house fort to protect that area of Maine during the war of 1812. Three adults in our family were in the group. This is a private tour and Dennis our guide was very accommodating, providing water soft drinks and snacks.

          Great tour minus the political comentary
          Let me start by saying this was almost the perfect tour day. Our tour guide communicated well in advance with us (not an easy task in Yellowstone) to settle on logistical details of our pick-up at the Old Faithful Inn. His vehicle was comfortable for our group of four and well stocked with snacks and beverages for our enjoyment. He took us to all the popular stops on the lower loop, and did so in a planned and methodical manner as to avoid the crowded times of day. He also took us to a variety of sites and roads that were not expected, and even made special request stops. We enjoyed his stories and knowledge about the area. That said, we had to look beyond the fact that he wore a 'pro-candidate' hat and injected political commentary throughout the trip. I am glad that we live in a free country where people can support the candidate of their choice, but I certainly didn't expect to be subjected this on a VIP tour and a vacation to get away from all the political tension.

        I had no idea Tampa had so much history. From Pirates to speak easies, the city was full of surprises. Our guide Candy had us laughing all day with her charming humor. We especially enjoyed the river taxi to Rick's and then walking around Ybor City, We will definitely come back and recommend this tour for anyone who only has a day in Tampa. We were given options to see the Aquarium and history center as well. Make sure you mention Alessi Bakery. It was our favorite stop!

        A very nice tour of this amazing Yellowstone Nationale Park. There is a wide variety of totally different landscapes, wildlife, and moving nature. The Private Jeep Tour allows a lot of flexibility, and you can choose a "menu" of activities, the order, and timing, which is awesome to get relaxed about the visit. Being able to hike to the Grand Prismatic Spring overlook was awesome. Also, the guide was very good at pointing out the wildlife animals during the road, and we were lucky to meet a black bear even outside the park, on our way back to Cody. A very nice sunny day.
