Mt Rainier - Nature at its best
Rajesh_M, May 2022
The trip was a memorable one at that. My wife and myself had booked the tour to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary. Started off great and ended even better. The drive was simply out of the world and we were left in awe and wanting for more.

Decent trip, John was very knowledgeable, questions answered well. The clouds weren’t on our side but we did get to see a glimpse, only advice would be to check the weather before you book. Good day 🤘🏼

Mount Rainier trip
jack_m, May 2022
We were the only ones on the tour as everyone cancelled due to weather! But we had a brilliant time. Ken was an amazing tour guide as well as being really friendly. Despite not seeing Mt. Rainier, we still saw some amazing views and appreciate NorthWest Tours still going ahead to make the most of our experience! Thank you. :)
