Tebbe Was Excellent!

Published on Jan, 2025

Tebbe was an amazing tour guide of Asheville! We lucked into a beautiful January morning. The history and architectural information we learned about the area was fascinating and shared in such a knowledgeable and engaging way by Tebbe. We would highly recommend taking the time to go on this tour.

Great tour, especially if you do not have alot of time

This is an excellent tour. We learned so much that we would not have been able to learn on our own during our short stay in Asheville. Highly recommend.

Excellent walking tour of downtown Asheville.

Published on Sep, 2024

We had an excellent tour with Tebbe. He was friendly, informative and enthusiastic. The walk was easy, and the headsets made it easy to hear. One of the highlights was information about Thomas Wolfe, which piqued our interest enough for a follow up tour of the Thomas Wolfe home and visitor center. The tour was $5, and excellent, and the visitor center movie and information were very interesting.

Take the tour!!
