About Asheville Rooftop Bar Tours

Kaye Bentley founded Asheville Rooftop Bar Tours in 2018, after experiencing the captivating views of Asheville from rooftops across the city. A love of Asheville’s art deco architecture inspired her to craft a tour that combines stunning birds-eye-views of Asheville along with the history of the city, while enjoying food and drinks, all from Asheville’s highly acclaimed rooftop bars.
