Our Skagit Valley Tulip Festival and Deception Pass tour from Seattle explores the best of spring in the Pacific Northwest. We’ll visit the temperate and fertile Skagit River Valley, home to over 450 acres of tulip fields representing 75% of U.S. commercial production. Each year, thousands of visitors from around the world travel here to witness the spectacular bloom of these magnificent flowers. If you’re in Seattle in April, there’s no better way to spend a day.

Join one of our professional local guides as we explore this beautiful corner of Washington. We’ll pick you up in the morning at your Seattle hotel or vacation rental in our luxury Mercedes van, then start our day at the Skagit Valley’s most scenic tulip farm. With roots going back to the 1700s in Holland, this beautiful family-owned farm contains acres upon acres of tulips and dozens of experimental varieties in its beautifully manicured garden. Don’t forget your camera!

After plenty of time for photos and exploring, we’ll head to the charming town of La Conner, one of Washington’s most treasured historic communities. Beautifully preserved and restored, this town has long been one of Washington’s favorite weekend destinations for locals. We’ll enjoy lunch in town (included in the tour price) and then you’ll have free time to explore on your own.

While most other guided tours stay at the Tulip Festival through the afternoon, our guests have told us that a full morning there was ideal. Moving on allows us to skip the overwhelming afternoon crowds and leaves time for the vistas and beaches at one of our state’s most iconic natural attractions.

We’ll spend the afternoon taking in gorgeous coastal scenery and forests at stunning Deception Pass State Park. The waters pouring through Deception Pass, a narrow gap between Whidbey and Fidalgo Islands, travel at speeds up to 9 knots – faster than most rivers! After taking in the views from above, we’ll enjoy a guided stroll on the beach and walk through the beautiful old growth forest. Finally, we ride back to Seattle in comfort, relishing the memories and photographs from a wonderful day!
