Leavenworth Sleigh Rides

Enjoy a hot spiced cider by the open fire. End your horse-drawn sleigh ride with a sizzling steak dinner at Beaver Creek Lodge in front of the rock fireplace. This popular destination is named for lakes that reflect views of Mount Rainier. During the summer, hikers must stay on trails at all times to protect the delicate subalpine meadows around the lake. Boating and fishing is not permitted in Reflection Lakes. During the winter, snowshoers and hikers can still access the area and winter camp around the snow-covered lake.

Levenworth and Snoqualmie Falls
This was a magical tour our guide Gokhan was very knowledgeable. He made the trip lots of fun. We loved visiting the Sasquatch Outlook at the Espresso Cafe and then traveling to Levenworth. The German town was enchanting. We enjoyed the Reinhaus for lunch. The Gingerbread bakery abd Nutcracker museum are a myst. Shopping and walking g the town were most enjoyable. The highlights on our return were seeing elk sunning in fields and Snoqualmie Falls. The falks from the upper and lowered observation poi ts were beautiful abd we were able to capture a double rainbow.

Our Excursion was...
Our Excursion was canceled by the operator, less than 24 hrs before the scheduled departure. Informed us that they didn't meet their required minimum. Offered to charge us $180 more for a private tour in a smaller vehicle. We requested a refund. Waiting on the refund to come thru. So, we rented a car and did the day trip on our own for 1/4 of the cost & we had a great experience. Lesson learned.
Response from the operator: Every tour has a minimum number of requirements. We try our best to conduct the tour as scheduled but sometimes due to last minutes changes like weather , there are cancellations done by customers which impact our schedule. Nonetheless we are customer obsessed and we always try to serve our guests in the best possible way. 100% Refunds as per our policy are always guaranteed if cancelled before 24 hours of scheduled departure time

Do not use Barbil Tours - they are a scam company
Mr Singh of Barbil Tours texted at 2pm the day before our tour to cancel stating that we were the only two booked. He offed another tour but we declined. Kept on pushing other tours until he said he could take us to a few wineries so we said ok but provided no additional information. That night at 6:30pm we received a phone call from someone named Paul saying he was going to pick us up in his personal car at 8:15am...no agenda ..nothing. Said we would figure it out as we go. Having no alternative at that point we said yes. Turns out my wife woke up sink and tested positive for Covid. We texted Paul back at 6am before he left for us. Called Barbil Tours and was told he would not refund us...we needed to speak to Viator. Viator requires a 24 hour cancellation policy for a refund and the tour was to take place the following day a 9am which mean Barbil Tours canceled after the required refund time. So lesson learned. DO NOT go on any tours offed by Viator featuring Barbil Tours. Go to their website...they offer no real tours..just a bunch of photos and reviews. They are not a reputable company. They got our money and thats all they care about
Response from the operator: Our refund policy is governed by Viator refund policy . We need at least 24 hours advance notice to process 100% refund .

Do not book this tour..the tour company handling this is Barbil Tours owner Mr. Singh
We had booked this tour through Viator who ultimately used Barbil Tours. If you go to their website there are no tours listed. The company is a scam. We were texted that our tour was cancelled due to only the two of us going on the tour. The problem is we were texted at 2pm the day before our tour and according to Viator we are only entitled to a refund within 24 hours. The tour was for 9am the follwoing day Barbil Tours offered another tour which we declined. Then asked us what we wanted to do, We said do you offer a wine tour and they said they would get back to us later that evening. We were finally contacted at 7:30pm that night. via text with no information other than someone will call us with info. And yes a man named Paul called and said he would pick us up at 8:30 am in his personal vehicle in the morning...no schedule...no idea what we were going to do. Turns out my wife woke up sick and tested for Covid in the morning. We texted back right at 6 am..we did not want to infect the driver. At that point we were told that we needed to contact Viator for a refund. Of course..because the tour company canceled the original tour way past the Viator 24hr cancellation Viator will not refund our money. We were even willing to accept a credit since we use Viator all the time. We are out of luck...but do you own research and DO NOT use any tours by Barbil Tour company.

Great day trip with a super friendly and knowledgeable guide
Anna was a terrific guide! Super friendly and knowledgeable, she provided a lot of great information on the long drive out to Leavenworth. My only feedback would be to use a larger vehicle as the one we were in was cramped for some passengers.

Why this scores 50
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Explore Leavenworth from Seattle in a small group: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Seattle.
How much does Explore Leavenworth from Seattle in a small group cost?
+
Prices start at $275 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Seattle usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Explore Leavenworth from Seattle in a small group take?
+
Plan for about 10 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Seattle is not rushed.
Is Explore Leavenworth from Seattle in a small group worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 50 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.5/5 across 8 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Seattle, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Explore Leavenworth from Seattle in a small group?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Explore Leavenworth from Seattle in a small group suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 10-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Explore Leavenworth from Seattle in a small group?
+
Around 3 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Seattle can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Seattle and add a light layer if any part of the 10-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Explore Leavenworth from Seattle in a small group start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Seattle within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Seattle?
+
Seattle's best days leave the city: Mount Rainier, the San Juans, Olympic National Park and Snoqualmie Falls are all day-trip range, and each one lives or dies on the driver-guide. In town, Pike Place food tours, underground history walks and harbour cruises dominate. Our ranking favours operators with small vans over full coaches on the mountain runs. On Outty we rank every Seattle experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Mt. Rainier Day Tour from Seattle, Seattle City and Snoqualmie Falls Half-Day Guided Tour, Mt. Rainier National Park Highlights Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Seattle?
+
June to September for clear Rainier views and reliable ferry weather. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Seattle?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
