Things to do in Seattle

Gorgeous sunny day out for this Mt Rainier National Park trip. The driver, also our guide, was helpful and safely took us to see the highlights of the park, including the waterfalls and Reflection Lakes with still some time for short hikes. We are lucky to see Mt Rainier, still an active volcano covered by snow, clearly on this beautiful day.

I joined a Klook day tour (the easiest option for solo travelers) to Leavenworth, a German-themed town about a 2-hour drive east of Seattle. On the way, we stopped at Snoqualmie Falls, a very tall waterfall, over 80 meters high. Even from a distance at the observation deck, I could still feel the mist from the falls. Later, on the way out, not long after we started driving, we encountered a herd of wild elk – probably more than I saw last week at Yellowstone National Park! Our guide even stopped the car so we could get out and take pictures, which was incredibly lucky! Leavenworth instantly made me feel like I was in Europe (even though there was a large group of Americans around). Since I couldn't possibly eat a whole pork knuckle by myself, I just ordered some German sausage.

Driving from Seattle to Vancouver takes about 2 hours, so joining a day tour is really simple and convenient! You can unlock all the highlights in just one day, including Granville Island, Gastown Steam Clock, Canada Place, and Stanley Park. These pretty much cover all the must-see, classic attractions!

The guide was punctual, passionate about his job and very knowledgeable. It was a good decision to join the your

It's also nice to take a leisurely stroll over from Pike Place Market. Arriving early to browse the souvenir shops a million times XD and then entering with the voucher! Very convenient. It was really interesting how the elevator narrator took precisely about 44 seconds to finish their spiel right as the elevator arrived. The scenery is beautiful. A fantastic experience! Don't forget there are also plenty of great walking and photo spots in the surrounding area 👍

Amazing cruise with wonderful experience with a family of Orcas and very informative naturalist 🤜🔥🤛
