The delights of Mount Desert Island are on full display during this five-hour guided tour that takes you through Acadia National Park and includes plenty of photo stops. From the pier your van will wind its way along the scenic 27-mile Loop Road to Thunder Hole. This natural wonder, carved out of the rocks, is famous for the thunderous clap that occurs when seawater crashes in and air and water is forced out. Additional stops include the charming village of Northeast Harbor, the amazing naturally formed breakwater known as Seawall, and the picturesque 160-year-old Bass Harbor Headlight, one of the most recognizable and most photographed lighthouses in North America. Finally, enjoy a pleasant stroll in the quaint town of Southwest Harbor before climbing back aboard the van for the relaxing ride back to your ship.

Special Notes:

There is no visit to Cadillac Mountain (travel loop road only), photo stops are made based on the parking availability along the Park Loop Road and may include Thunder Hole, Sieur de Mont Springs, Schooner Head, Otter Cove, or the Jordan Pond area. Tour order may change based traffic and parking conditions.
