It was great to get the history of the city. It was Day 2 for us in Asheville and this tour really helped us to understand where things are and where we want to go during our visit. David was excellent.

Adequate - felt like we got the “bum’s rush” - too concerned about the weather that never happened. Like I said - it was ok

Information on the architecture of the city buildings was interesting. Visiting Cultivated Cocktails, having tastings, and then returning for an extended relaxed experience was awesome. Asheville is a much livelier city than anticipated.

Asheville is a great city and it is worth the visit snd the two hour walking tour

Our tour was scheduled 10:00 am to noon. Our Tour guide referred to a private tour she had scheduled at 12.30 and that are tour needed to end by noon. She repeated that a few times during the tour. She walked ahead of the group when we walked to different sites. She really didn’t try to engage with the tour group members. At a few stops she was on her cell phone and of course did not engage with us. Our last stop was at Cultivated, a brewery that specialized in cocktails. She rushed us thru with little dialogue with the presenter. She said we could come back on our own. I really enjoyed the walking tour of Asheville but we have had better tour guides. We paid $10.50 each for the two hour tour. After the tour we always tip our tour guide. We were appalled when our tour guide stated her tip is usual $30 to $50 a person. She stated this is how she makes a living. By the look on the faces of the group members they were horrified also. We tipped a fair amount but not $30 to $50 a person.
