Outstanding
Great tour. Got to see historic chocolate factory, tasted and bought the best ever chocolate. Snoqualmie Falls tour and walk was beautiful and did a house tour and wine tasting at Chateau St Michelle. Daniel was very flexible and accommodating. The car was clean. Great snacks. Door to door transportation. Great value.

Fun day!
This tour was a blast! James, our host, was friendly, knowledgeable and went above and beyond to ensure a delightful day for us all. We met great people and enjoyed wines and the beautiful Snoqualmie Falls. The lunch at the Wine Room was delish. Definitely recommend!!

Just Stunning and Peaceful
This excursion is EVERYTHING you want if you’re looking to hike in Seattle. The tour guide picked us up and drove us into the site, where we started a 2 hour journey. The quiet, cleanliness, peace there just elevated the immense beauty of the forrest. The waterfalls were unreal, I wish I didn’t have to leave! I went in the afternoon in early October and the weather was perfection.
Frequently Asked Questions
People Also Ask
Q:What is the best time of year to visit Snoqualmie Falls?
A:You can visit Snoqualmie Falls year-round. The waterfall is most impressive in the spring when melting mountain snows turn the river into a torrent. By early to mid-October, bright autumn foliage adds a colorful backdrop to the 270-foot (82-meter) falls—though rain is more likely when visiting this time of year.
Q:Should I book Snoqualmie Falls tours in advance?
A:It's a good idea to book Snoqualmie Falls tickets for a tour in advance. The most popular outings do sometimes sell out. Some tours also include activities such as Seattle sightseeing, hiking excursions, and vineyard wine tastings with a tour guide, so early booking is the best way to secure a spot on your tour of choice.
Q:How long does it take to see Snoqualmie Falls?
A:Most visitors spend at least 30 minutes at Snoqualmie Falls. The Upper Observation Deck has excellent views of the towering falls and is a short walk from the parking lot. You'll need more time to walk the .3-mile (.5-kilometer) boardwalk to the Lower Observation Deck, which passes through an old-growth forest.
Q:Can you see Snoqualmie Falls without hiking?
A:Yes, you can see Snoqualmie Falls without hiking. The best way to see the falls without hiking is by visiting the Upper Observation Deck, which has excellent views of the waterfall. That viewing platform is 200 feet (61 meters) from the parking lot on a paved trail that's wheelchair accessible.
Q:How hard is the hike to Snoqualmie Falls?
A:There are two ways to reach Snoqualmie Falls. The paved, 200-foot (61-meter) wheel-chair accessible path to the Upper Observation Deck is the easiest option. A slightly longer walk follows a .3-mile (.5-kilometer) boardwalk to the Lower Observation Deck. The boardwalk is primarily flat, family-friendly, and passes through the scenic riverside forest.
Q:What do you wear to Snoqualmie Falls?
A:Wear comfortable walking shoes on your trip to Snoqualmie Falls, and pack an extra layer or two in case it's cool in the woods. Bringing a raincoat or poncho is also a good idea, as the waterfall's mighty spray can sometimes reach the observation decks.
