Blue Ridge Parkway (Between Cherokee, NC and Waynesboro, VA)
Whether you are driving the entire journey in one epic trip or dividing into sections as you return over and over, you will be impressed with the natural beauty and the surprisingly rich collection of experiences to be enjoyed. With hundreds of overlooks and hikes to choose from, the tour is designed to help you take the guesswork out of your journey. We'll let you know the best places to stop, and the ones that offer a unique perspective. As well as places of interest along the Parkway itself, many other great adventures lie just off the Parkway - including small cities and towns with big personalities and historical significance. So you'll hear suggestions about some of the best side trips as you go too.

Think of the Blue Ridge Parkway as two halves, Virgina which is more rural in nature, complete with orchards and wineries but still mountainous, with long views! And North Carolina, where the towns become a little further apart, and the mountains are even more imposing and rugged. There are so many amazing views, but a few favourites include the Linn Cove Viaduct - photographers can't help but scramble to the perfect vantage point. Mabry Mill is an iconic view into the lives in the mountains from generations ago. Be sure to walk the mile-high supension bridge at Grandfather Mountain. For cultural stops, you'll want to give time to the toe-tapping Blue Ridge Music Centre and the Folk Art Centre. And also call into Asheville, Roanoke, Blowing Rock and a host of other entertaining towns.

You'll guided to all the best places to spend your time - then it's your choice of what you like best.
