8:00 AM
We'll pick you up where you're staying in Downtown Seattle including hotels and airbnbs!. If you are staying outside our legal pick up zone, we are happy to meet you at our default pick up location—Sheraton Grand (1400 6th Ave). If you're unsure whether your hotel or rental is part of the downtown corridor, give us a call and we can confirm whether your hotel is included! We also make quick stops near SeaTac Airport (DoubleTree Airport) or Tacoma (Best Western Plus Tacoma Dome) when requested. We will call/text/email around noon the day prior to your tour to confirm your pick-up location and exact pick-up time. No need to check-in before we contact you (unless you have a question, of course!).
At 14,410 feet above sea level, beautiful and majestic Mt Rainier is an icon in the Washington landscape—an active volcano and the most glaciated peak in the United States, creating six major rivers.

This day trip nature tour to hike and/or snowshoe around Mt. Rainier National Park begins with a Seattle hotel pickup followed by a scenic drive to the park in a luxury vehicle. Upon arrival, enjoy Seattle coffee and pastries before starting the trek along the Nisqually Vista Trail. Be on the lookout for wildlife wandering around the mountain at any time.

This all-day Mt Rainier tour includes frequent stops to take pictures and enjoy light snacks. A picnic lunch of locally sourced, organic foods (grilled chicken or salmon, sandwich or wrap, with a grain or green salad and water or soda) is also provided midday. 

At the end of the day, it’s back down the mountain to take a relaxing return trip to Seattle.

Great Experience! Our tour guide was amazing
Antonieta_C

My son and I had a great experience during this trip. Everything from the van they picked up us, to the snacks, equipment, and lunch was high quality. Our guide was friendly, very attentive to your needs, and nice. The places we visit and the activities we did were also great. Overall a good experience. Highly recommend it

Worth it
Shelly_C
, May 2022
Completely worth it to have a tour guide take you to the best hiking areas while provide interesting history and facts about the area. The food was good, not overly fancy (you're hiking after all), and more than enough to satisfy. This is a way better option than trying to find multiple parking areas on your own or getting through gates (if they are open) and around to trailheads you aren't familiar with. Having someone who led the way and made sure we had everything we needed took away all stress and let us enjoy the views.

Snow shoeing
Roslyn_R
, Mar 2022
The snow shoeing of Mt. Rainer only lasted about 2 hours in total. The view was nice; however, I’m not sure how it’s justified with the price. The lunch was advertised as salmon, grilled chicken, and wraps/sandwiches that are locally sourced. We instead received store bought cold soup, cold chicken, quinoa salad. It was not as advertised. The breakfast was store bought muffins. Nothing special. Not from a local bakery etc. Overall was not impressed, and feel like this should cost significantly less.

Hi Roslyn, I am very sorry you did not enjoy your tour with us. We always appreciate constructive feedback in areas where we can improve or failed to meet guest expectations. I will address your list of concerns here for anyone else who may be reading this before deciding to book a tour with our team. The food listed in the tour description isn't a comprehensive list of what's provided, but rather a general guideline to what our meals might include. All of the food we provide on our tours is locally sourced and purchased from a Pacific Northwest co-op deli, PCC, who supports Washington, Oregon, and Idaho farmers, ranchers, and suppliers and opts for organic choices whenever possible. The muffins and pastries that we provide come from Alki Bakery, a local bakery that has been family-owned and operated since 1985. The cookies served after lunch are from a mom and daughter owned bakery who took a chance on starting their business when the covid shutdowns brought them home from work. As a locally owned and operated company ourselves, we have worked hard to build strong relationships with our local food providers and we are very proud of that fact. Our lunches are served picnic style in the National Parks as these remote destinations have limited to no indoor facilities or food service options. There is no public kitchen or other facilities where we can actually cook food in the field (the beauty of traveling to the National Parks is the ruggedness of the experience!). On colder winter days, we bring soup that we heat up in the field with a camp stove, so it should have been warm if not hot. The overall price of our tour cannot be summarized simply by the length of the snowshoe walk and the food included throughout the day. When you travel with Evergreen Escapes, you are supporting a local business that pays their employees fair living wages. We support the national park by maintaining permits that many other tour companies choose not to have due to their costly annual fees but which allow us to take travelers to areas of the park that other companies cannot go. We support other local businesses whenever possible, and we allocate funds each year for environmental issues important to our team through our participation in 1% For the Planet. This is just to name a few of the other costs that go into the total value of the tour outside of the tangible inclusions. Thank you again for bringing to our attention that we have not quite explained these details in our tour description to properly prepare guests for traveling with Evergreen Escapes. I am sorry again that we fell short of your expectations and wish you the best in all your future travels. Kind regards, DJ | Evergreen Escapes

This was a great outing. The snowshoeing was a new experience worth every minute. Our guide Meg was great. She tried to fit in as much as possible. Her driving was impeccable. Very conscious of the fact that she was responsible for people’s safety.

Being from NOLA we weren't really sure what we were expecting, but this tour was GREAT. I think we really lucked out with the weather. The snow shoeing was a tough workout but it was so, so worth it. The food and snacks provided was also very good. Karen, our guide was lovely and so knowledgeable and helpful too.
