Jacqueline
I was happy with the entire trip. I was relaxed from the airport pick up and that relaxation did not end in the entire trip. Smooth driving and smooth services were just appreciable for sure. Hurricane Ridge and Crescent Lake were fun to enjoy and had best clicks over there. The entire management was super perfect. Excellent job………. Wont to explore other national parks in next tour.
Kathryn
Snoqualmie Falls & Leavenworth German Town was fun to explore and I enjoyed the most in this culturally rich town where I got good food and shopping experience. The guide helped in selecting low budget items and was so good in his perfect selection. His local language also helped in eating good food items. William, you were the pure highlight of this trip. Thanks a lot!
Theresa
Some places are full of the package in having fun, history, and nature as well. There is no doubt that Seattle is one of those destinations where you can have the best time. I cannot say for a single place where I enjoyed the most because all destinations were breathtaking for me. Availability of guide was really a supportive element that helped in making this trip interesting and easy. Whether you are a native or from another country you will be always welcomed here in this bus tour by such an amazing team. Good job team!
Jordan
I was happy with the itinerary and was so excited about it but on joining some amendment was made in the itinerary. That was a thing I was actually not expecting but the alternative plan was indoor fun but I am an outdoor fun lover. Alternatives must be balanced in such a way that all visitors with different taste can enjoy that. Rests of the commitment were really fulfilled. 3 stars only to improve some rooms and this bus tour can be the exceptional one. Thanks
