This was an amazing experience! Cory did a great job personalizing the tour to the interests of our group so everyone was able to enjoy the day. He was very knowledgeable about the area and took us to great viewpoints. We got lucky with some great weather. Overall, I would do this again and would recommend it to anyone going to Seattle!

On this full-day tour of Washington State’s Mt Rainier, you’ll visit the majestic 14,411-foot (4,392-m) volcano and learn about the area from your informative guide. You’ll also explore local treasures like lakes, old growth forest and waterfalls en-route from Seattle to Mt Rainier. Nature lovers won’t want to miss this! In winter and spring snowshoeing and sledding are included at no extra charge. Hiking will be offered as well PLEASE WEAR appropriate clothes and shoes. Our company picks up at hotels and spends more time in the park than others. a photographers paradise.

All I can say is wow! This was my first-ever tour, and Kevin made it unforgettable. He mentioned that Mount Rainier isn’t his usual route, but you’d never know it—he did an incredible job. Super fun, informative, and engaging guide. We stopped at plenty of amazing spots along the way, and the views were absolutely breathtaking. Highly recommend this tour!
