Description

Experience the best of Seattle in one unforgettable half-day adventure that blends historic neighborhoods, iconic viewpoints, innovative engineering, and the natural beauty of Snoqualmie Falls.

Continue to Kerry Park, where you’ll enjoy world-class skyline views and incredible photo opportunities backed by Mount Rainier on clear days.

Leaving the city, travel east across Lake Washington while hearing about Seattle’s engineering achievements.
