My friends and I are planning a trip for our spring break, and as suggested by the title, we will need a shuttle service at somepoint. Is there any that anyone would recommend?
We had a guy about two years ago, middle-age-ish with long blonde hair, really great and helpful, just can't remember the name or if he is even still around.
Any opinions, help would be great. Thanks.

also, Standing Bear Farm hostel 423-487-0014
The Hike Inn 828-479-3677
The Smokies also offers all kinds of opportunites for loop hikes, so I would consider that before booking a shuttle, unless you are determined to hike all or most of the AT in the park. Personally, I think that the prettiest parts of the park are off of the AT.

anyone know of any people who do it out of their own vehicle, instead of it being an actual buisness?

Im doing the same thing for Spring Break. Nancy from Hike inn gave me th enumber of a guy and he is cheaper than Standing Bear and evryone else. When is your trip so maybe we can splitthe cost if you happen to be going the same time. Also, what is your day to day looking like? I am going Fontana to D GAp March 9-17.
If you want the number for that other shuttle let me know. I do not think he is listed anywhere. You can PM me if you need the info.
Good luck planning your hike
