Seattle: Breathtaking Mt. Rainier Day Trip & Alpine Views

This was my first time visiting Seattle, and I chose this tour to experience the natural beauty of the area and the energy of the mountains and evergreen forests. The trip turned out to be a truly restorative experience. Our guide, Ken, was excellent—very knowledgeable and engaging. (My apologies if I’ve remembered the name incorrectly.) I learned a great deal about Seattle, Mount Rainier, and the local ecosystem. It was a thoughtful and informative tour. Ken’s years of experience were evident in the way he planned the day, taking us to the best available spots despite the region’s unpredictable weather. The mini van was comfortable, water was provided, and I appreciated Ken’s calm and confident driving, which made the journey smooth and pleasant. The scenery was breathtaking—majestic mountains, serene forests, and a sense of peace that’s hard to put into words. I highly recommend visiting this beautiful place and taking time to simply be present with nature.

We had a wonderful trip to Mt. Rainier. Our tour guide, Ken, was very knowledgeable and friendly. It was such a wonderful experience from beginning to end and I’d highly recommend checking this tour out.

Your Guide Erika made the trip, she knew the mountain like the back of her hand. We got to see an unobstructed view a few times and she was always trying to get us a view. She was very helpful taking memorable photos for us at a number of stops along the route including waterfalls, vistas and huge trees Erika has well spaced spots along the way to use the rest rooms as some facilities were closed due to the Government shutdown. Your Customer Service staff was also helpful in booking the trip. The only issue I had was that your staff and the YMCA staff at the pickup had the location as the side door of the facility and the pickup Was in front. Now that could be an issue as the YMCA staff encouraged us to stay inside in the hallway facing their instructions as to the pickup location. In spite of this issue I can thing of no better company to spend my limited tour time with to see as much of Mt. Rainier in one day.

The tour guide Erika was friendly and knowledgeable and made the entire trip a memorable experience. The pick up and drop was made without any hassles. There are multiple spots included in this tour and all the important places are covered. Will definitely recommend for families.

This was a great tour. Ericka was knowledgeable, easy going, and tailored our experience to the best advantage... scheduling our stops to fit in with the weather as well. We were able to see a great deal. The mountain was shy and played hide-and-seek with us, but it was an overall outstanding experience.

Sadly, due to the weather, we did not get the best views of the mountain, but we had a lovely time regardless. Erika was our fantastic tour guide. She had extensive knowledge of the area and was terrific at taking photos for the guests on the tour. If anything, I wish I had taken a hat and gloves because it actually snowed a lot, but that was my fault!

Ken was our guide and was very knowledgeable about the area and personable to chat with. He did his best to get us to the best locations for the best pics. Many opportunities for bathroom breaks along the way. We lucked out and had a beautiful day too. Definitely would recommend this.

Amazing experience! The views were breathtaking and out tour guide was very enthusiastic. It was a great experience for a first timer at Mt.Rainier

What an amazing experience! Mount Rainier was absolutely stunning. This trip was the perfect way to see the park if you have limited time. I would love to comeback to explore more one day!

Lucinda, our tour guide, led us on a wonderful adventure to and up Mount Rainier. We traveled on a Monday when the Federal Government was shut down, and this impacted the services & staff available at the Mount Rainier National Park. Lucinda made sure that we had plenty of breaks for bathroom, coffee/snacks, and lunch. She explained all about the history and geology of the Cascade Mountain Range and of Washington’s 5 active volcanos. My family was delighted with the trip and highly recommend it.
