Greater Seattle

4.2
Immerse yourself in the unmatched natural beauty and urban excitement of the Emerald City and its green surrounds on a Greater Seattle holiday. A city with decidedly cosmopolitan flavor, Seattle boasts a rich musical heritage and its main attractions include museums, scenic parks, and historical tours. Dominated by the massive active volcano, Mt. Rainier National Park offers a range of fresh outdoor adventures. A large fleet of ferries makes island hopping from downtown Seattle super easy. A historic waterfront lined with boutiques and restaurants, as well as close access to city parks, attract travelers to Gig Harbor as well. Use our United States tour itinerary planner to arrange the details of your trip to Greater Seattle and other destinations.
