Dive Into Nature and Marvel at National Parkland in Seattle, Washington for Four Days & Three Nights at The Fairmont Olympic Hotel, Seattle for Two, Including a Full-Day Tour of Your Choice of Either Mount Rainier National Park or Olympic National Park (Land Only)
Set on the Puget Sound in America's Pacific Northwest, Seattle is surrounded by national parkland, so visitors to the city are only a few hours drive from dense rainforests and majestic snow-capped mountains. Mount Rainier National Park is home to massive glaciers, alpine wildflower meadows, shimmering lakes, and rushing waterfalls, and Olympic National Park is rugged, expansive, gorgeous, and a UNESCO World Heritage Site and Biosphere Reserve! Choose one of these national parks for a full-day tour of monumental peaks, ancient forests, secluded lakes, and more!
Savor Mount Rainier's hidden beauty on foot with waterfall walks, giant trees, alpine vistas, wildflower meadows, and wildlife watching. Stroll through the old-growth forests near Longmire, where Douglas fir, hemlock, and cedar trees dwarf visitors, and the bubbling of natural springs fill the crisp air. Experience waterfalls and big mountain views as you wind to higher elevations. On tours during the summer, pick wild berries on a sub-alpine hiking trail. On winter tours, take advantage of Paradise's legendary snowfall (and the winter solitude) on an introductory snowshoe trail. This isn't just another driving tour of a National Park — experience the highlights beyond the vehicle during walks and hikes tailored to your ability. This is the only day tour permitted to explore more than a mile from the park road, as Mount Rainier National Park is ecologically sensitive and important. Join a few other travelers and a TripAdvisor 'Hall of Fame' guide on a real exploration of this spectacular destination. Don't waste daylight waiting in line at a busy food counter – this tour provides you with breakfast and a fresh, family-style lunch with local wines. Enjoy snacks, sparkling water, and water throughout the tour. You'll also have access to snowshoes, so don't worry about a thing!
Unplug and explore must-see Olympic National Park. Though this 1,100 square mile UNESCO World Heritage Site and Biosphere Reserve would take a lifetime to explore, you'll dive deep into some of the National Park's natural highlights on this all-inclusive day tour. An award-winning guide will lead you on this small group tour as you explore the ecological diversity and expansive wilderness. Cross the Puget Sound by ferry to the northeast part of the Olympic Peninsula where you'll explore the moss-draped forests, azure lakes, and striking mountains that define the region. Visit Hurricane Ridge to watch deer graze in the meadows, listen to the distinct shrill of a marmot, smell the intoxicating perfume of a summer wildflower field, or feel the snow crunch beneath your feet on a winter snowshoe. Continue west to the glacially-carved Lake Crescent, where you'll explore the fern-filled forests that line its shores, venturing to Marymere Falls. Don't waste daylight waiting in line at a busy food counter – this tour provides you with breakfast and a fresh, family-style lunch with local wines. Enjoy snacks, sparkling water, and water throughout the tour. You'll also have access to snowshoes, so don't worry about a thing!
