An amazing experience with a great guide! - Absolutely wonderful group of people to do this with! So unbelievably happy I came across them when I was planning our trip. Great communication throughout the entire process. Our guide, Josh, was very personable and knowledgeable. I loved all the information - historical, geological, and biological - that he provided during the trip from the time he picked us up. (Because if you're like me, curious minds want to know.) We did the Burroughs trail. The hike is amazing, with breathtaking views of Mount Rainier. The sun and heat that day made the hike more challenging for me, as my body doesn't deal well with either, but Josh was patient and I was never made to feel like a burden. And the challenge made the reward all that more amazing. The stop for ice cream after was the perfect finishing touch! (If you need an extra energy boost after the hike, the ice cream store also makes a tasty NA red bull spritzer.) As someone who travels a lot, it's not often you find a business where your experience is flawless from start to finish. Thanks for making one of my bucket list ✔️ one of my all-time favorite hikes!

Awesome guided hiking experience - I was looking for a guided hike that would take care of all logistics and was stoked to have found Adventures in Seattle! I used Sophia's services for a guided hike in Mt. Rainier and I couldn't have been happier with the experience! Sophia was wonderful throughout the entire process. Prior to booking she was incredibly kind & responsive and after booking she was very communicative in confirming the details we'd need to know regarding weather, pickup, etc. Finally, during the actual hike itself, she continuously made sure everyone felt comfortable throughout the hike and worked to ensure everyone's safety. It was a memorable experience and would 100% recommend booking with her! Also, she keeps groups small, which was an added bonus!

Everything You Could Want For a Day Hike - I was very fortunate, in many capacities, to have Sophia as a guide for a three person tour to The Three Burroughs in an attempt to see the best views of Mt. Rainier. The guide experience with Sophia was more like traveling with a highly experienced friend rather than an overly sanitized, corporate excursion. I mean this is the best possible way — Adventures in Seattle offered wonderful personal services like pick-up from any Seattle lodging, food recommendations for the included lunch, backpacks in case we didn't want ours to get wet, and hiking poles for the day, all of which were a part of the trip cost and are not very common. The weather did not cooperate for us. What should have been a cloudy day with decent rain on the mountains rapidly became gale-force winds pelting us with painful sleet as we reached higher elevations. Sophia was willing to push when I said I wanted to keep going, and we did, until our waterproof hiking boots and pants were soaked through and it became clear to her we were reaching dangerous territory. And so, we turned back. Had I been alone I don't think I would have — this would have been to my detriment. It wasn't until we were in safer parts of the hike that I realized how bad it really was. This is why a guide is important for inexperienced mountain hikers, and we were lucky to have Sophia there. Hubris on a mountain is not an asset. And still! Still! This was an incredibly fun hike. We got to see Mt. Rainier's glaciers, some gorgeous lakes and wildflowers, accompanied by unparalleled views and a perfect amount of history and general knowledge shared by Sophia. I will recommend Adventures in Seattle to anyone and everyone coming out to Washington.

Awesome hike - Fantastic experience! The views were amazing. Matt was very knowledgeable. Definitely recommended.

Beautiful scenery,... - Beautiful scenery, wonderful guide, Sophia was the best, personable guide with great stories and experiences!

Epic Hike! - Sophia led the hike up the Burroughs trail and it was incredible. I went solo and she worked me into a small group of three others and let me just say, we had a Blast!! She provided transportation to and from the trail which makes it really convenient if you do not have a rental car. She made sure everyone was properly prepared for the day, managed the pace of hike, provided great snacks, and a hearty lunch. It was just so well organized. Mt Rainier was shining that day which made the trip even more special. We also saw mountain goats, marmots, pikas, even a sow and cub. The park is just so beautiful and Sophia made sure we had a great experience. This was absolutely the highlight of my trip. I highly recommend "Adventures in Seattle"!! I will be booking another adventure with Sophia when I get back to the area!

Mount Rainier Day Hike - August 2020 - Wow! You are going to love this hike with “Adventures In Seattle”! Both Sophia and Kevin are cool people who make you feel welcome and appreciated. Sophia was very accommodating and well organized in helping me understand what to expect. Kevin took me on the hike to Mount Rainier National Park, and it was like a non-stop conversation from pick-up to drop-off. Kevin is so down to earth, knowledgeable, and has so many interesting stories from his experiences outdoors. The hike itself captures the beauty of the National Park and Mount Rainier and it is timed and organized perfectly. Kevin is very knowledgeable of the Park itself, but he also gave pointers on the skill and technique of hiking, which is a takeaway I can use when hiking in other areas. The hike itself was, in my opinion, a notch above “moderate” in skill level. When we completed the hike, I feel like I accomplished something and felt good about myself. I highly recommend this hike (or anything else from “Adventures In Seattle”) and look forward to another adventure with them during my next visit to Seattle!

Meticulously Planned trip - It was a beautiful 9 mile hike I was on with another family of mother and daughter. Sophia took very good care of us and planned it extremely well always attending to our needs and food requirements. Thank you so much Sophia!

Amazing Experience - Me and my college aged daughter did a 9 mile day hike with Sophia and one other guest at Mount Rainier. Every part of the day was well planned and extremely enjoyable. Sophia was very kind, social and hospitable. She was very accommodating even with my daughters many dietary restrictions in which she made a delicious vegan lunch and brought many snacks for the hike. This was a very enjoyable experience and I would recommend Adventures in Seattle to anyone looking for a personal and adventurous Seattle experience. Thank you Sophia !
