Gentle and nice but not very experienced tour guide!

Rami_P, May 2023

If you are looking for a ride to the National Park, this tour works. However, if you are looking for a guide to learn about things on your way to the National Park, perhaps you need to find a tour with an experienced guide.

Response from Host, May 2023

Dear Customer, Thanks for sharing your experience with us, our sincerest apologies for not meeting your expectation. Regarding the explanations, the guide provided as much information on the destination as he can, we will look into what details were lack on this tour. We will continue to training the guide to make sure all guides are prepared to provide guests with knowledgeable tours.We hope that we can provide you with 5-star service if you ever travel with us again.

Disappointing Tour

Amanda_J, May 2023

It was difficult to understand what the “tour guide” was saying as he did not speak English well and was not able to entertain or talk about our surroundings. The guide handed me a printed out simple word doc with facts about what we were looking at instead of narrating. His driving skills were not great. He was kind but please train and prepare him for an English speaking group next time or you’ll get several displeased customers as I was. It was too much money for me to end up anxious and looking up facts myself all day.

Response from Host, May 2023

Dear Customer, Thank you for your feedback on your experience with us. Our sincerest apologies for not meeting your expectation. In regards to the tour guide, we humbly apologize if his English was not perfect. He prepared some attraction materials to send to customers for a better understanding of those locations not replacement of narrating. Regarding the driver,appreciate for your suggestion of the driver's driving skill, it is important to improve it and provide more comfortable experience for our customers. We are sorry for the negative experience, nonetheless. We would like to provide 10% of the tour fee you paid as compensation. We hope that we can provide you with 5-star service if you ever travel with us again.

No narration

Donna_S, May 2023

We spent 12 hours on an old rickety van with a guide that spoke and understood little English. There was no narration about the beautiful park, sights on the way there and back were not pointed out. I do not blame the driver. I blame the tour company for not preparing the driver about what is expected on a tour like this and assigning him as a guide to an English speaking group. He did his best but seemed nervous after running several red lights and not being able to answer questions. This was a long expensive tour that we had been looking forward too.

Response from Host, May 2023

Dear Customer, Thanks for sharing your experience with us, our sincerest apologies for not meeting your expectation.Firstly, all of our guide could speak English,we humbly apologize if his English was not perfect. It is a pity that he provided information he knows about the park but not meeting your satisfaction. We will make continuous training to improve the guide's knowledge to matching with customer's expectation. In regards to the driving skill, it is permitted to turn right when the traffic lights is red at Washington State, so the guide did not run the red light, our apologies for causing some misunderstand. Hope you experience improved services on your next trip with us and we can earn 5 stars from you!

Hailey_P, Apr 2023

Went to Olympic Park, the road to Hurricane Ridge was closed but we still drove as far as we could for some views, Marymere falls hike was unforgettable and hanging out in Poulsbo was so much fun! Our tour guide Kenny was very nice, informative and helped everyone take photos of the trip. Would definitely go again if I have the chance!

Highlights Tour was good!

Jennifer_Z, Apr 2023

The temperate rainforest walk was easy and kinda challenging at the end towards the stairs, but I really enjoyed it after sitting in the van for many hours. It was so beautiful with the green moss and trees everywhere. Lake Crescent was beautiful, too! The hour we had in the little town was nice but felt so short! It was easy to get lost browsing the little shops! We only had a day to explore Olympic National Park but the tour was very nice to get a taste!

Very nice and comfortable ride with a good and safe driver. We’re sad we didn’t go to the Hurricane Ridge. Olympic National Park was beautiful. I would recommend including Forks City in the tour.

Cristina_c, Mar 2023

I went on this day trip on my own, but I was joined by 9 other members. It was a very comfortable drive and it was nice to get to know our tour guide, Anna. She was very knowledgeable and offered many tidbits about the local areas. She was very caring and made sure we all were having a good time. She took photos for everyone, so don’t worry about a selfie stick!! We were sooo lucky to go during a beautiful day. I will return to the Seattle area in about 6 months, so I’ll absolutely book again through this company. Next time, Mt Rainer!

Scary ride, Beautiful park

Stephanie_S, Mar 2023

The park itself is beautiful. It was a decent tour but could’ve been a lot better. Not much of the history was provided about anything. The tour guide was very quiet and didn’t talk much about the history of Seattle or Olympic national park. I’ve been to other tours where they even talk about the trees on the car ride. When I travel, I like to learn as much possible any the places I’m visiting. The tour guide was very nice, polite, sweet and friendly. ANOTHER VERY IMPORTANT THING TO NOTE was that the car the tour guide was provided by the company wasn’t in good conditions & I didn’t feel at ease; I had anxiety during this entire trip. It kept marking MAINTAINED REQUIRED and tour guide kept calling her boss for assistance. We stopped at a tire shop. Obviously they weren’t going to fix the problem if it’s MAINTENANCE and not just air needed on tires… anywho, I’m grateful I’m safe but it wasn’t on the top of my list for tours. Sadly.

Response from Host, Mar 2023

Dear Customer, Thank you for your feedback on your experience with us. Our sincerest apologies for not providing the perfect tour. We are always trying to make sure that our guides do their best to meet the customer's satisfaction. Our guides need to give as much information on the destination as they can, so we will look into why the guide for this tour was lacking the necessary details. We will continue to make sure all guides are prepared to provide guests with knowledgeable tours. In regard to the vehicle, the displayed lights on the dash was a sign to equalize the tire pressure due to the cold weather in winter, the light was stilled displayed after we inflated the tire because of an issue with the dash sensor and was repaired after the tour. We agree that safety always comes first and we try to make sure all vehicles are carefully checked before every tour. We appreciate you taking the time to write your feedback, and we hope that we can provide you with 5-star service if you ever travel with us again.

Good for a day trip

minalp, Feb 2023

This was a convenient tour from Seattle if you only have a day and don’t feel like driving in the winter months. Good size- it was like 8 of us in a van with four passenger rows. My only issue was sitting in the last row, we heard nothing the guide was saying all day in his low voice. They should get a small microphone. Guide was nice though. Good communication after booking. Our pickup in Seattle was 20 min late, but did at least get a text notifying us. This is what we did: 1. 20 min supermarket (w/ bathroom) stop. This would be helpful, except I packed food not knowing this was part of the plan. And no one had to use the bathroom within an hour of leaving. 2. Visitor Center - brief, but nice to walk through. Had bathroom. Photo opp. 3. Lake Crescent vista point - this was beautiful and I could have definitely stayed longer! 4. Temperate rain forest- this was actually a 45min (not challenging) hike to Marymere Falls and back, and really cool to be in the trees. Better than description makes it seem. 5. Another stop at Lake Crescent shoreline, & bathroom opportunity. Very pretty but kind of fast as we were somehow already behind schedule. 6. Drive to Poulsbo, and then 40 mins there. Not a big area and just grabbed food, but nice to have a replacement for having to sadly skip Hurricane Eidge in winter. 7. Bainbridge ferry- this was definitely a convincing factor in taking this tour. It was nice to not drive all the way back the same way and be able to exit the car (to go on any indoor/outdoor level) for beautiful views getting into Seattle as nighttime hit. We returned to downtown right after 6. Overall a great day trip despite it being winter, even though so much of Olympic was left unseen. Hope to do an overnight trip in the less snowy/more daylight filled future!

Beautiful Views!!

Radha_G, Dec 2022

An excellent tour! Lake Crescent is an eye spectacular. We weren’t able to see the mountains from the Hurricane Ridge because of the weather conditions but our tour guide, Michael, adjusted the situation by showing us a beautiful town decorated with Christmas lights. I would highly recommend!!
