Q&A

Q: What's the age limit for kids on this tour?

A: There's actually no specific age limit, but I'd say kids around 6 and up would definitely enjoy the hike and the falls. Just keep in mind that some parts can be a little steep or slippery, so make sure kids can handle that. Also, maybe check with the tour provider if you have younger kids to see if they recommend certain precautions.

Q: Can you reschedule if the weather's bad?

A: Yes, you can reschedule if the weather's not great. The company will usually contact you if they need to cancel due to safety concerns. Just make sure to read their cancellation policy when booking. They’re pretty flexible but do try to give them a heads-up if you need to change the date!

Q: What should I wear for the guided hike?

A: Definitely wear comfortable hiking shoes with good grip. The trails can get muddy, especially near the waterfalls. I'd also suggest layering up since it can get chilly by Lake Crescent. A rain jacket wouldn't hurt if it looks like rain! And don’t forget sunscreen, even on cloudy days.

Just did the Half Day Guided Tour of Olympic National Park and it was AMAZING!

I went on the Half Day Guided Tour last weekend from Port Angeles and it was such a great experience! Our guide was super knowledgeable and took us to Madison Falls first, which was a short but beautiful walk. The highlight was definitely the hike to Marymere Falls at Lake Crescent—90 feet of pure magic! I’d totally recommend it for anyone visiting the area or looking for a unique gift. My friend loved it!

Considering gifting the Olympic National Park tour—any advice?

I’m thinking of getting this tour for my husband’s birthday. He loves hiking and nature! Is it suitable for a first-timer? What should I know before booking? I just want to make sure it’s worth it!
