Kim is an absolutely wonderful person and I’m so happy I finally got a chance to take part in one of her tours! I was first connected a year ago and we’ve been online friends ever since. Finally made my way over to Asheville for the day tour and it was a truly magical day. She showed us some spots I wouldn’t have visited on my own and I got my animal sanctuary fix! Can’t wait to go on a bigger tour in the future!

What a fun day exploring Asheville with Kim! She is so knowledgeable about vegan places around the city and very friendly too. We had a great time eating, drinking kombucha, meeting rescued animals and more. Highly highly recommend!
I went on one of the vegan food walking tours of Asheville and had a great time! Kim is very knowledgable, friendly, and well-organized. I can’t wait for the next tour!
