My wife and I decided here on vacation for our 12th anniversary to pick this bus tour and Alex was our tour guide on this tour. We were really very impressed by his services and knowledge. He guided us on every place in a generous and informative way. A very well maintained trip it was, I must say. Destinations like hurricane Ridge and Crescent Lake became really enjoyable with the good informative visit and food experience. Our anniversary went so well that I want to thanks Alex especially that you helped us a lot in making it that well. Good job, keep it up!........... Recommended.

  Highly recommended. Fun and fun was all there. It was a short trip but we faced a bit of weather issues like rain. Being a person who dies for rain, what would I desire to enjoy other than rain? On one hand, this ran enhanced the beauty and on the other side, I loved being served in an amazing way. So relaxed and calm it was to visit destinations like Olympic National Park and also enjoyed Seattle people's special lifestyle. People were enjoying on the bus as well; all management was properly maintained even in the rain. Big thanks with lots of best wishes for this lovely trip. I highly recommend it without even thinking of a second. Good job!

What a memorable tour. We had Lola as our tour guide during this visit. What a remarkable trip that was! We made many desired selections and the guide was always there to support our desire. The moment we started this trip she ensured that this trip is going to be the best one in our life and ensured us every fun. As my husband was joining and he hated such rush and being stuck in a bus but he was so happy after joining it that he was actually enjoying this cultural sharing. Sites were to see for many hours in a day and every hour was entertaining with good music in the bus as well. The clean bus with good services. 5 stars easily!

It was so good to see amazing destinations like Olympic National Park and Mt. Rainier National Park. With such an amazing guide Lola. My kids were with me and she pampered them so well. I was so relaxed that I am in safe hands. There is no doubt that there are many such gentle people serving in the world making others happy and comfortable. From airport pick up I realized that this bus tour is all about goodness because time management and sweet people were so obvious. Destinations were a true reflection of nature and beauty like Crescent Lake and glaciers view. I will definitely recommend this tour to my friends and family members. Love from Australia!
