Traveler reviews
Great experience to visit Mt St Helens
This was a great day tour and a unique experience! I was very happy to finally get the opportunity to visit the legendary Mt St Helens!
Mt Saint Helens tour
My sister and I planned a trip to Seattle and we did a few excursions with Evergreen Escapes. Our guide Chris B was AMAZING!!! He was very knowledgable and answered all our questions.
Excellent day trip!
Amazing day, thank you Chris B! If you’re looking at this tour, do it! Our day started at 7:30an with a door to door pick up in a passenger van. We did a few other very quick stops to pick others up. Chris B shared interesting information/facts from the beginning. Our drive was not only informative but accommodating with plenty of refreshments and bathroom breaks. The stops included an old growth forest with coffee/tea and excellent zucchini bread, 2 visitors centers, 2 perfect length walks/hikes, and a stop at a privately run artifact display. The views were great! Lunch included chicken thighs pieces and two salads (possibly not a kid/teen fav but we didn’t mind! If you’re a picky eater bring your own packed lunch). This tour was so enjoyable we’ve decided to do more! Thank you again for a wonderful day our family wouldn’t have experienced without you!
Best tour
Everything about this was fantastic. The Guide Chris was kind, courteous, and knowledgeable.the breakfast pastry and coffee was nice. The lunch was fantastic. Post lunch cookies to die for. I liked how we started breakfast at an old growth Forrest so the hike showed us what MSH looked like before the eruption. Easy hike. Later we stopped at a number of places to see the site and learn about it. There was a second hike to a great viewpoint. I did not think it was hard but there were some ups and downs and a few people who were not as stable walking had to turn back. Plus an optional hike at lunch at the lake. Everything was perfect, Chris would not let us lift a finger. He had hats, sunglasses and hiking sticks in case it was needed. Can’t say enough about this tour.
Evergreen Escapes Rocks!
Evergreen Escapes had a great itinerary to Mt St Helens, keeping the pace of the day smooth and sharing so much information! Chris Bright was an outstanding guide! The company had snacks, water, brewed coffee and a lovely lunch to keep up our energy level! I cant say enough praise for our time with Chris and the fun we had. I would definitely book a tour again to any of their destinations!
