Great tour of Shepherd of the Hills!
Elaine_O, Apr 2024
John our guide, was extremely knowledgeable about the location, history and facts of this tour. It was very enjoyable, and our group happened to be small, so we had a more personal experience and probably got to see a few things that others would not. It was really great to learn about the history of the Shepherd of the Hills, and we all bought the book too!
Small tour but most interesting

Catfish was our guide. He made the tour most interesting with his encyclopedic information and vast array of experiences. My favorite parts were investigating the old post office and cabin with the numerous gadgets and furniture.
Fun tour

The guide, Emily, was excellent. The scenery was beautiful. I would recommend familiarizing yourself with the story of The Shepherd of the Hills as this would make the tour more meaningful. Overall fun experience
Wonderful

Uncle Matt’s cabin and the marvelous view are well worth the visit. It’s also historically informational
Interesting outdoor, non walking tour.
Marcy_P, Oct 2023
We enjoyed the tour, with all the interesting history shared. The tour is perfect for people with difficulty walking. The view at the top of Inspiration Point was fabulous. I feel it was one of the best values in Branson.
TAKE THE HISTORICAL TOUR!

I loved seeing the inside of Matt’s and Mollys house-It was the one thing I wanted to see-I can’t imagine living in such a small space but they did it
John the cowboy was an excellent guide.

Our guide was fabulous…. A local who knew relatives of characters from the book Shephard of the Hills. If you have read the book, this is a must include with your Branson trip.
