5Amazing Customer Service when the Unexpected Happened
This company is very responsive, helpful, organized and has great customer service! Unfortunately due to the ferry service to the peninsula being majorly disrupted, we didn’t get to go on our 3-day private tour with Olympic Hiking Co. They were so helpful and flexible in cancelling unlike a hotel company in Port Angeles that was not a good experience at all. This is a good company with a good team focused on the customer experience! I will not hesitate at all to book with them again when the WA ferry gets their act together.
5Hoh Rainforest
Great experience and our guide, Nancy, was the best!
5Hoa Tour ♥️
This was a full day. Our tour guide was absolutely fantastic. Very knowledgeable and had great stories to tell on the road to and from. It was nice not driving, giving us time to actually enjoy the scenery. Big plus not worrying where to park as we were dropped off at the entrances while our guide searched for parking. 😃 Loved the whole day! Would absolutely do this tour again.
5Great day experiencing...
Great day experiencing the beautiful rainforest. The walk was easy and can be experienced by almost anyone. Excellent tour guide shared her vast knowledge of the environment.
5A great day
It was an amazing day- Roni our guide was so knowledgeable about this area- it’s history and current concerns. She shared her love of nature professionally and personably. This company has created a very smooth running system. Would highly recommend them and well worth the $
5HOH and Ruby Beach tour
The HOH and Ruby Beach tour was breathtakingly incredible! It's hard to describe how beautiful the sights were! Our tour guide made the experience all the more amazing! She was energetic, upbeat, and very friendly. She moved the tour along at a good pace, but with stops for pictures, conversation, and questions at all the right spots. There was flexibility to make sure everyone on the tour was able to see all they had hoped and come for. She was very knowledgeable about each area we visited and traveled through. Her restaurant recommendation was our favorite place we ate at during our entire trip! We were traveling with children ages 10, 12, & 17 and they had no trouble keeping up with the pace and they greatly enjoyed the entire experience!

About Port Angeles
Port Angeles is a harbour town on Washington's Olympic Peninsula, the gateway to Olympic National Park, with a ferry across the strait to Victoria.
Port Angeles sits on the Strait of Juan de Fuca beneath the Olympic Mountains, with a working harbour, a waterfront promenade and a compact downtown. Ediz Hook, a long sand spit, curves out to shelter the harbour, and a ferry crosses the strait to Victoria, on Vancouver Island, which can be seen across the water on clear days.
