“This tour was a perfect escape from the touristy things to do in Nashville. The waterfalls were beautiful to look at and peaceful to listen to. Lunch was very basic but good and the restaurant was clean. Jordan was very informative, helpful (had bug spray, towels, etc) and was an all-around nice guy.”
