I am a Northwest Native who believes that every day should be a good day. One way to make that happen is to get outside and explore! I'm passionate about traveling, learning, sharing, telling stories, hiking, running, walking, skiing and enjoying all that the great Northwest has to offer. Since 2017 I've been guiding guests on traveling experiences and I look forward to sharing this passion with you. I have earned dozens of 5 star reviews from guests who enjoy my engaging and fun personality and appreciate my knack for storytelling, which I have developed working as a journalist and publicist. These reviews are on another travel platform. Message me if you'd like the link. Please let me show you the beautiful Pacific Northwest and all that it has to offer! And if you want your tour customized - or you want additional tour ideas - please reach out. I've lived here nearly my whole life and can suggest many other options to make your visit more than memorable.

Overview of your Seattle tour

This family-friendly Seattle-area tour blends whimsical public art, engineering, and nature into an unforgettable experience. Start by visiting the iconic Fremont Troll, then drive to meet Frankie Feetsplinters, one of several enchanting creations by Danish artist Thomas Dambo, known worldwide for building giant trolls from reclaimed wood and recycled materials. Each Dambo troll has its own name, personality, and story. We’ll stop by the Ballard Locks to watch boats transition between freshwater and saltwater, and potentially see salmon navigating the fish ladder. We’ll drive to the scenic forest of Lincoln Park to visit Bruun Idun, tucked along the shores of Puget Sound. We’ll then cross Lk Washington on the world’s second-longest floating bridge into the foothills of the Cascade Mountains to discover Jakob Two Trees. We can add optional stops for lunch, coffee, or a chocolate tour before returning to your starting point. LET’S PLAY SEA26. Tour times can change to accommodate FIFA World Cup game schedules.
