Reviews
"Our local nonprofit board attended the Hood Huggers driving tour. We learned many historical facts about our local community and had thoughtful discussion about the ongoing impact of racism in Asheville. DeWayne tailored the tour to the work we do. I would recommend this tour to anyone visiting and especially to local community members."
"This was a wonderful tour and I highly recommend it to everyone. It was a real eye opener. Dewayne is so knowledgeable and informative. This tour was the most memorable part of our trip to Asheville. Thank you Hood Huggers!!"
"Informative and insightful. Dewayne is very knowledgeable both about Asheville history and with current developments plus we learned about Pierce's grandfather's role in early days and had a delightful song/dance too. The Burton Street tour is fascinating for anyone who wants to understand Asheville history particularly as it regards racial inequality/discrimination and how the neighborhood is working together to improve this community."
"Hood Huggers tours should not be missed! (And should be a requirement for anyone living in Asheville) I went on both the Eagle Street and Burton Street tours with a group from my church this week. Both tours were incredible. DeWayne is an excellent tour guide who engages people of all ages in the experience. Beyond the history that is shared on the tour, he also has a wealth of information to share about current policies and projects happening. I cannot recommend these tours enough!"
"I am very glad I found the Hood Huggers Tour on Visit Asheville's site, when I travel I like to see & do the things the locals do and I definitely learned about the African American History of Asheville which I gained a strong appreciation for. Having traveled to other well cultured destinations, I've learned "everything that glitters isn't gold", and while Asheville has many good things going for it there are many communities that still need & deserve a lot of support. I strongly recommend doing this tour when in Asheville!"
