Itinerario

1. We drive to Mt. Rainier National Park (2 hours) and hike from the visitor center at Paradise for about a mile where we picnic close to some giant glaciers. We then hike back for a mile and drive to viewpoints with panoramic views and we see the Narada Falls and the Christine Falls, old growth forests with a thousand year old big trees and the Reflection Lakes. In Winter and Spring seasons (November-June) we will snowshoe rather than hiking - no experience required.

• 5Perfect Tour for a Perfect First Visit to Ranier

  Fabulous day with Susan. Comfortable van (not new, but perfectly fine), easy drive to a local grocery to pick up a picnic lunch (bring a small backpack to put it in, along with water for the hike up the mountain)/restroom break, then she took us into the park and knew exactly where to go for the best views, photos, etc. She was pleasant and not too talkative which was nice so we could sit back and just take it all in. We saw Ranier, the old growth forests, various streams and waterfalls and the reflection lake plus the Paradies hike. Well worth it and combined just the right about of hike and sightseeing. Do not hesitate to book.

• 5Amazing day spent at...

  Amazing day spent at Mount Rainier National Park, especially if you're solo. The whole trip took almost 11 hours from pick-up in the early mornings downtown Seattle and coming back. I really wanted to go on a proper hike, but travelling alone and not wanting to drive, this was the perfect choice. Susan was a great guide, sharing a lot of information of the park, and drove us to all the amazing viewpoints. The hike splits the group into two groups: easier, almost flat short trip at Paradise to a waterfall. And a "harder" (as an avid hiker I'd say between easy and moderate) hike along the popular skyline trail, which took us roughly 2 hours. It's a good exercise since it's pretty steep all the time, so you feel like being on a proper (shorter) hike, nothing technical, but good shoes are required. I really enjoyed the day and took a lot of photos and videos, it was great!

  Great experience and a nice way to spend a day outside of Seattle and into Mt Rainier National Park. Our guide, Susan, was knowledgeable and knew all the cool spots for photos

• 5Tour was fantastic

  Susan was very thorough. She knows Mt. Rainier and was able to get us to the right places at the right time for the best views. The climb is not for the week kneed, but well worth the effort when you get to the picnic area.
