Our Deception Pass State Park Tour from Seattle is an excellent way to spend a day outside of the city. Located on the northern end of the largest island in the Salish Sea, Deception Pass provides unparalleled opportunities to experience the true Pacific Northwest with miles of rugged coast, massive old growth trees, and adrenaline pumping bridges.
This small-group day trip limited to 10 people includes French-pressed coffee & tea, pastries, light snacks, a picnic-style lunch and downtown Seattle pick-up and drop-off. Don't worry about a thing.
What's Included
Meeting and pickup
If you are staying outside of downtown Seattle, the best spot to meet in Downtown is the default pickup location, the Sheraton Grand Seattle Hotel. If you will be driving and would like a convenient parking option, you can park at our office in Sodo (Seattle) near the stadiums instead. Please let our team know if you will be needing one of these options at least 48 hours before your tour.
This is our default meeting location for any guests staying outside of our legal Downtown Seattle pick up area.

Bring your binoculars and spend the morning searching for waterfowl, shore birds, eagles, raptors and more who all congregate to take advantage of the mild winters of the Pacific Northwest.

After lunch, if you're up for it, challenge yourself to walk across the 180 foot high bridge that spans the width of Deception Pass for an exhilerating experience and unbeatable views.
