Such a great day! The communication from tour operator was prompt and clear as I needed to make my way to one of the pickup points (I am not staying in a hotel). Well organized from the moment I booked the trip. Lucas is very knowledgeable and fun guide and made the tour very interesting. It was a beautiful but a bit cold day, but the mountain views were amazing. We had plenty of photo ops on the way which I loved as I just got a new phone with excellent camera. Lots of history and stories about the villages on the way as well as info about Mount Rainier. We had 2 hours to go snow shoeing up to the mountain and that was plenty (it is hard work, and I am quite fit). The bus was comfortable, and everything went super smooth. I am so glad I did this day trip, well worth the money for sure. I come to Seattle often on a work trip but rarely have time to do anything touristy so this definitively crowned my visit this time!! Thank you, Lucas for the Fabulous day!

Harry was an excellent tour guide. He made out trip enjoyable and even though were on a timed tour it didn’t feel that way.

Less stops at supermarkets and cafes. It's just silly to waste over 1hour at these places.It's better to have more mountain time, or get back home earlier.

Thank you for your feedback. Most guests enjoy these stops since it's where you have opportunities for food and restroom breaks. We appreciate your review.
