The beauty of the outdoors with a knowledgeable company and guide - So much to see that I’m glad I booked a tour. Sydney’s knowledge of the area was amazing. She always made sure we were comfortable with the hiking, made outdoor camping fun and was always smiling! Thank you Sydney for making this an unforgettable experience.

Great Day in Olympic Park!! - Khajidah was our guide and we had an action packed day, plus a great lunch. We got to the Hoh Rain Forest before the crowd and as we were the only ones on this early in the season tour, we set the agenda. We walked the Hall of Mosses and Spruce Trails before hiking the Hoh River Trail for a while. Then it was back to the parking lot where Khajidah quickly spread a picnic lunch, complete with tablecloth and on a damp day we had sandwiches, chips, veggies, and fruit. What a treat! Then it was on to Ruby Beach and a walk along the seashore at low tide. Then it was off to Big Cedar for the end of our trip. At the end Kahjidah apologized for keeping us past the alotted time. It was her clock that had ended not ours, and she had a three hour drive back to Tacoma. Would recommend this trip to anyone !

Olympic National Park Hoh Rain Forest, Beach 4, Big Cedar Tree - This tour was remarkable & our guide Lauren was amazing. We visited 3 locations Hoh rain Forest in Olympic National Park, Beach 4, and The Big Ceder Tree. Lauren guided us from the time she picked us up till the time of drop off with so much information. It was a perfect trail she picked up to the waterfall on the Hoh Rainforest trail up to a waterfall. Along the way she had a trail picked to a beautiful spot in the Hoh River. Along the way she had wonderful info about the eco system of the forest. Beach 4 was a fabulous stop. Lauren had planned a perfect time of day when the tide was low and we hit some fabulous tide pools. After Beach 4, we headed to the Big Ceder Tree… an amazing 1,000 year old tree that was astonishing to look at. This tour was so worth it! Thanks for the amazing experience!!!

HOH Rainforest - This was a great company with great service. Beau was our hiking guide and he texted days before to see what drinks we would like for the long day and he picked us up right outside our hotel at Forks Motel. The two biggest take always from the experience were
1. Beau was the perfect tour guide! He was extremely knowledge and personable. He made great conversation along the way and let you set the pace. His love for the outdoors and nature came across in all the interesting facts he had about the surrounding ecosystem. We learned all about the nurse logs and the colonnades among other fun facts but you will have to book yourself to learn the rest.
2. Although it is obvious it’s still important to emphasize; Nature preservation is vital. Be aware of your surroundings, and each organism, no matter how small plays a big roll!

An Amazing Tour of Olympic National Park with our Guide Beau - We had such a great time exploring ONP with our guide Beau! Our guide picked us up at our hotel (2.5 hours away), brought snacks & water, and had a thorough knowledge of all the stops along the way! We saw amazing ocean life during low tide, the tree of life, Ruby Beach, HOH Rain Forest & Big Cedar, etc We stopped at an awesome lunch spot and then were back off to explore more of ONP. I had shared that it was my son’s 25th birthday and our guide brought a cake that he unveiled at the last stop! It was awesome! A very memorable day for both of us. Thank you!

Amazing immersive experience! - My partner and I were traveling to the area and wanted a tour that would really allow us to learn about Olympic. This tour was just that! Our guide, Lauren, really opened our eyes to so much that we would have missed otherwise. From the plants in the rainforest to the creatures in the tidepools, there was so much we learned about! The day was perfectly timed and full of laughs.

They canceled two days before - We booked the tour in July for the end of August.spend over a$1000 just to find out that your was canceled two days before . Still waiting for my refund. No other tour guide to cover or other days to reschedule. I called couple of times someone was telling me that they will send me email with information . Never was received. I do plan my trip but one day I want it to have a guide and enjoy someone telling me about the area. Sad to say - unfortunately unreliable
