Fun hike! - Good, scenic, trip. The height was moderate, it’s a slippery in places due to recent snow and snow melt. Beautiful scenery.

We had a wonderful time!... - We had a wonderful time! We enjoyed going to see the falls from two vantage points and the hike was beautiful. It can be a little wet, so bringing as good of waterproof athletic attire is a must. It was an easy day trip out of the city to see some beautiful sites!

Must do if you’re coming to Seattle - I couldn’t have did it without a tour guide. The experience and knowledge was worth paying for it. Jonny knew and pointed out things I would miss out on. There’s a part that’s definitely a hike so prepare yourself to do so. Have a full battery on your phone you’re going to take a lot of pictures. Have fun I did.

Renergizing hike in Snoqualmie - The falls was amazing in the morning, view was clear for January winter. Jonny provided different options to accomodate different groups e.g. different route options pending on views and fitness level. The hike overall has a few hills but less than 4km total. Definitely worth the fresh air, surrounding nature and refreshing morning view.

Fog Won't Stop Us Now - This is a great intermediate hike. The lower view of the falls was absolutely gorgeous, the upper view would have been, had the fog not been so dense. But even with the fog, it was still interesting visually. The hike itself was strenuous, though not impossible, but be ready for uphill climbs and possibly some mud (we went in December). The river is beautiful and the trees are just majestic. Jonny was the perfect guide, keeping track of us yet letting us go at our own paces (I stopped to take a LOT of pictures). He is very knowledgeable about the area, and is just an interesting person all around. I highly recommend this trip.

Excellent experience - The visit to Snoqualmie and hike to Twin Falls was excellent. Jonny was an excellent guide. The morning was well paced and everything went smoothly. Jonny was attentive to the needs of the group and provided an informative trip. I would recommend the experience to anyone looking to spend a half day exploring the area outside of Seattle.
