Rainier, you will get out to experience as much of the Longmire area as possible for the day. Explore beyond the vehicle during walks and hikes with your guide by your side the entire time.

A Walk to Majesty

We had a great time with Zaach today. He was phenominal tour guide. We had mix of experince with guests so he had a pace that worked for everyone and the more adventurous could go further and meet up with main group without delaying the time. Food offered on trip was excellent and snacks and beverages had a great variety. Mt. Rainer is just awesome seeing in person. Seeing the effect of tacoma lasting a hundred years. He is also had great skill at identifying flora and fauna on the hike.

Kieran was an excellent guide for our Beneath The Streets Tour. It lasts about 70 min. He wasfilled with all the details of Seattle's beginnings andthe unique city beneath the streets. He kept the tour going at a good pace, but still time to answer questions sprionkled with a little levity.

Great choice!

This is a long day but an efficient way to see numerous sights. Well worth it! It would be hard to replicate this on your own so let someone else worry with the ferry schedule, the driving, and food! Very attentive to comfort and the food. Lunch and snacks were delicious and plentiful.

The first stop on this...

The first stop on this tour was at a Safeway grocery store for snacks & a bathroom break. So you don't necessarily need to rush to get snacks for lunch. Our driver was John, bus 31. John was excellent. He was quite informative and pleasant as a guide. He also dealt with a very entitled passenger without losing his cool as this person was late more than once. The first time the group as a whole was pleasant about it, but the second time several in the group made it clear no one wanted them to hold the group up again. John was professional dealing with this passenger, even though the second time they were late getting back to the bus he had to search for them. He was very personable, overall kind and knowledgeable about what we were seeing and answering questions. If I did this tour again I would request him. We were very lucky with the weather as it was dreary and a little rainy as we left Seattle, but as we got to the park, the sun came out and the clouds cleared for wonderful views of Mt Ranier.

A non-stressful way to...

A non-stressful way to hit many of the hot spots of Mt. Rainier. This tour is family friendly and the hiking options are fantastic for the novice. Our tour guide, Silas, made the most of the inclement weather conditions so that we could spend adequate time at each stop. He also made a bonus stop along the river for exploration since the mountain didn’t show its face that day (due to dense fog). His knowledge of forestry was incredible and was able to answer all of our questions confidently.

Great hiking experience!

We had a great time on this tour! Oliver was our tour guide and he was so pleasant & knowledgeable. He made sure everyone was comfortable throughout the hike and he even had water bottles & tangerines to share with anyone that wanted some. He also allowed for some stops along the hike for picture opportunities. The waterfall was beautiful & it was a fun experience!

I had an amazing experience with Miles Hike Club! The communication throughout the booking process was excellent. Our guide, Ryan, was incredibly helpful and fun to talk to, making the hike even more enjoyable. They provided snacks, water, and trekking poles, which was a thoughtful touch.
