Seattle: Mt. Rainier National Park Full-Day Tour With Transit
Seattle
10 hours
In the morning, meet your guide and group at one of four convenient pickup points in downtown Seattle. Hop aboard the comfortable, climate-controlled minibus, and head to Mt. Rainier National Park. Your first stop is at Longmire, home to a museum, information center, and other amenities. Learn more about the park’s history, and have the opportunity to go for a short hike. Next, make your way inside the park, and admire its beauty. Discover the Narada Falls and Christine Falls—two scenic highlights. Enjoy up-close views of Mt. Rainier, too. When it's time for lunch, take a break at the park's visitor center, where you can purchase your own meal (or enjoy a pre-packed meal). In the afternoon, depending on weather conditions, you may be able to visit additional park highlights, including Reflection Lakes and Tipsoo Lake. After a full day out, drive back to downtown Seattle. Some tours also drive through the mountain town of Elbe en route.
