Margene_W, Jun 2026

Best of Olympic national Park with experienced guide

Our experience guide, Chris, was excellent! He was experienced, informative, very organized, accommodating, and kept to a schedule so we saw everything we expected. And more. We especially liked that. He communicated with us prior to the tour so we felt confident.

Seattle: Rainforest, Beach, and Olympic National Park Highlights

Jessica_R, Jun 2026

Excellent trip!

A great introduction into the major points of the national forest! Jonny, our guide, knew exactly where to go to avoid crowds and give us the best experience possible. He was knowledge about the flora of the rainforest, the history of the places we visited, and answered every question we had. All in all it was a great trip and would recommend to anyone who wanted a 1-day crash course of the national forest.

Guided hike on Mt. Rainier - old forest, falls and glacier views

Kristin_P, Jun 2026

Susan was an excellent...

Susan was an excellent guide, you could tell her passion, energy and knowledge for Mt.Rainer. This hike was moderately difficult and would recommend hiking shoes over sneakers due to the ice and steepness. It was enjoyable to stop at a grocery store for the picnic lunch and coffee (at the grocery store) before heading to the park. We had time to visit the lodge and gift shop too. Incredible experience and would 10/10 recommend. Thanks Susan!

Meet the Market- Food and Fun tour in Pike Place Market

Sean_B, Jun 2026

An Easy YES - book it!

Sonic John is THE MAN. Seriously, this is a great way to experience the market if you have never been. I'd plan to do the tour and then give yourself time to explore afterward. Also, there is real food! We were STUFFED afterwards. We had planned to have lunch after, and we didn't need it. OH, also... the Market has NO LOGICAL LAYOUT. They have 1/2 numbered levels and you just randomly find yourself on another level (3 turned into 4 just walking at the same level). He has lived the history of the market. Listen to him, note where you want to come back to, and ask him how to get there. Easy 5 stars. THANKS JOHN.

One-Way Seattle Airport Transfer Service

Bernardo_M, Jun 2026

Smooth service

This was our first time using a transportation service which was recommended by our travel agent. It was easy to book online and reassuring by getting confirmations and reminders leading up to our travel day. Our flight arrived an hour earlier, we made a call letting them know. It was no problem for them to pick us earlier than scheduled. Our driver was helpful and friendly in loading our luggage (and unloading) and thorough out the drive to our hotel drop off. The vehicle was clean and spacious, comfortable for our family of eight. Everything about the experience was easy and smooth.

Whale Watching from Friday Harbor

Jon_H, Jun 2026

Sail the Salish Sea with San Juan Safaris!

Our whale watching trip with San Juan Safaris was exceptional. Captain Gabe and the MV Sea Lion took great care of all the passengers and our onboard naturalist, Olivia, kept us entertained and educated about all the wildlif we did (and didn't) see. We saw harbor porpoises galore, a number of bald eagles and harbor seals (rock sausages) too. The highlights of the expedition were watching a Steller Sea Lion tease some surrounding gulls with his catch du jour, and then getting to see two family groups of Orcas traversing the Haro Strait. Truly an unforgettable day!

Leavenworth Exclusive Tour from Seattle

Jenny_B, May 2026

Cute Bavarian Town

Silas was a great guide, very friendly, polite, and helpful. There is quite a lot of uninterrupted driving, so be prepared for that. The town of Leavenworth is super cool with lots of great shops and dining options. We also rode the alpine coaster, which is right at the entrance of town, and was a lot of fun. You’d probably need to plan ahead for this though because we hit it at the perfect time with zero wait time.

Pike Place Market: Original Food Tour - Tips Included!

daringreenlees, May 2026

Perfect way to taste your way around Pike Place Market

If you wanted an introduction to what food and drink options are available at Pike Place Market then this is the tour for you. We visited 8 different places to get a taster of - ginger beer, ice cream, fish and chips, clam chowder (very surprising seeing as wasn’t always a fan), Turkish delight, lentil soup, chocolate cherries, fruit, donuts. Every one was delicious. Our tour guide was knowledgeable not just about the food, but also in giving a brief history of different parts of the market.

From Seattle: Vancouver Day Trip, Stanley Park & Granville Island

Rhea_S, Dec 2025

The guide shared helpful insights along the way, which made the experience even more meaningful. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a stress-free and enriching trip!

Mindy_S, Sep 2025

Look no further! Best service in Seattle!!!

Armando was the friendliest, professional, and courteous person! He was extremely helpful and thorough with directions when it was the day of pickup at the airport. The vehicle was new and very clean and comfortable. We were so pleased with our experience, I cancelled other scheduled shuttle service and booked him for the rest of our trip (2 more trips to and from the port). I will recommend his services to anyone I know traveling to Seattle and will only book him when we return to Seattle!

Seattle's Original Sunset Sail (Est. 1984) - 70ft Boat - BYOB

Ellen_W, Sep 2025

Exceeded expectations

What a great experience! Friendly crew who answered questions but didn't narrate -- which we appreciated after a long day of sightseeing and listening to tour guides! We brought our own wine, bread, cheese and deli meats, from Pike Place Market, which was plenty for dinner. Regular seating is limited, so be prepared to sit on the deck -- there's not much room to walk around. We were fine but it's not suitable for those with mobility issues. We were lucky to have calm clear weather and enjoyed a spectacular sunset. Two hours is just long enough!
