    Half-day guided hiking tour focused on the local flora, fauna, and geology, led by expert naturalists.

    Jason was very knowledgeable and adjusted the tour to fit our preferences. Since it was quite hot, we decided on a shorter route that provided more shade.Eric_Y

    One-hour guided tour — learn how local grains are turned into spirits, plus two mini cocktails and a souvenir glass included.

    My husband and I enjoyed a private tour of the Chuckanut Distillery in Bellingham, Washington, this evening. The entire experience was fantastic! Our tour guide was outstanding—knowledgeable and very informative. We gained a lot of insight. She was also incredibly accommodating and patient with my husband, who has mobility challenges. I highly recommend this tour.cavtana

    4. Friday Harbor scavenger hunt

    3.5· 2 reviews· 2 hours

    Two hours of interactive fun across Friday Harbor — a live host guides your team through challenges, art, and history in this scenic island town.

    Exploring Friday Harbor in this way was enjoyable and allowed me to connect with various local merchants. It had been years since my last visit, and I was pleased to see how the town has thrived post-COVID. Melanie proved to be an excellent virtual assistant, providing encouragement throughout the experience. I highly recommend this activity, particularly if you have just a few hours to spare.ewtreelady
