It was a wonderful tour. Cory did a great job! My only negative comment is we were told to meet at 0720 for pick up and were not picked up til 0800. I did not receive a text or email stating the pick up time changed. After waiting 30 minutes I called Viator to confirm if the tour was cancelled or not.

Our tour guide James made sure to know the names of all his passengers and also bought cookies and cupcakes for passenger birthdays and our anniversary! James was Awesome!! We were fortunate enough to have beautiful weather that allowed us to make it all the way up to Paradise!! The views of the fall we just breathtaking along with the views of and from Mount Rainier! They provided snowshoes and spikes for us to do some exploring in the snow and on some trails. We had a nice amount of time at the various stops for pictures and exploring! Even stopped for ice cream before heading back! James was very informative and even did some Seattle trivia with us! We learned alot on the way to the mountain and he gave the passengers some quiet time on the drive back to allow for some rest after a terrific day! I would highly recommend this tour and would definatly love to have James as a guide again in the future!

Wonderful day with Cory in Mt Rainier! Most of the day was lovely weather, but the mountain lived up to its name. That didn't stop us from snowshoeing, courtesy of Cory. We made several stops, some for photos and others for short hikes (~20 minutes each), but he always made sure everyone's interests and abilities were served. Overall a stellar guide.

It was rainy, so good for the guide for pressing on. There was too much "democracy" on the trip. It is one thing to say "At our next stop you have one of three choices." It is another to ask for a vote as to whether the group wants to stop here or there. Of course some want to stop! Nobody wants to be "that guy" who is the only one to vote to do something and then fear resentment from all who just want to sit around all day.

Come prepared for the weather at higher elevations . Enjoy as many hikes as you can and be ready for it to be an awe inspiring experience . Two deer came down from a mountain and headed right for me . With no fear , crossed in front of me by 14’ . National Geographic has nothing on my pictures and/or experience .

Wow what an incredible day this was! Our tour guide, Cory, went above and beyond. Prepare for a true, full day! Plenty of rest stops along the way. I could have pitched a tent at any one of these places. Trust the guide! He will get you where you need to be.

We had the perfect day to experience Mt Rainier. Our guide had all the gears for us to climb the mountain. Bring extra socks or boots.
