mnM3319VQ, October 2026
Dale was a very friendly and knowledgeable tour guide. He took great photos as well.
★★★★★Viator review
Snoqualmie Falls tour was amazing!
Debbra_C, October 2026
A comfortable and great way to see the various neighborhoods of Seattle as well as taking a beautiful drive to the Cascade Mountains and the Falls. We saw an elk herd in its natural habitat . Our guide, Dale, was phenomenal. Not only was he a very kind and knowledgeable, he is a professional photographer and gave us tips and helped take pictures for us. We learned a lot about the Seattle area. The group is smaller in size with a smaller van type bus, which we much preferred over a large tour Bus.
★★★★★Tripadvisor review

★★★★★Viator review
This tour is the one to take!
Nico_G, October 2026
This tour is the one to take. Van was roomy, clean, & comfy. Dennis, our your guide, was a safe driver, very pleasant and well informed. Stops were explained thoroughly and he was so happy to give scoop on it all. The times were set & adhered to, which I liked. We never felt rushed or like he was “dialing it in.” His joy and knowledge of each place made the stops so fun and entertaining. Great tour. I looked at several and am so glad we booked this one. Now we really know Seattle.
