Pros: Beautiful scenery, smooth ride, friendly staff in train station and on board train, comfortable seating. Cons: Speaker was so low couldn't hear announcements, wish there was a guide to tell us names of certain places we passed. Tips: Be on time or earlier for best choice of seat. Woven fabric luggage cannot be checked, but you can use as carry on. Take snacks as cafes may be closed because of pandemic. Don't forget your mask, it's required on board. Relax and enjoy the scenery.

Outdoor enthusiasts can bike, hike, boat, and ski in one of the top cities for outdoor activities in the U.S., while soaking in the Pacific Northwest's natural beauty (and yes, some rain as well). Urban explorers will love walking through Pike Place Market and experiencing Seattle's museums and public art, like the scenic Olympic Sculpture Park.
