TACOMA, WA – Visit Tacoma-Pierce County has released a new spring itinerary that makes exploring easy—because sometimes the best way to see a place is to leave the details to the professionals. The Guided City Slicker Adventure is a curated, guide-led journey through art, history, gardens, and coastal views, designed for travelers who prefer to discover more and plan less.
Spanning Tacoma, Fife, Puyallup, Lakewood, and Ruston, this three-day itinerary leans into expert-led moments: docent-narrated garden strolls, guided museum tours, historic walking excursions, narrated glassblowing demos, and even flights with commentary from the cockpit. Every step invites visitors to deepen their understanding while lightening the mental load of logistics.
“Spring is when Pierce County comes alive—and this itinerary lets travelers fully experience that without overthinking it,” said Matt Wakefield, Chief Marketing and Data Officer at Visit Tacoma-Pierce County. “It’s perfect for people who want memorable stories, fascinating insights, and a break from being the one in charge.”
From colorful murals and Champion trees to hot shop artisans and aerial overviews of Commencement Bay, every stop is an invitation to relax and absorb the region’s creativity, heritage, and natural beauty. Many activities include built-in guides, while others offer optional tours or mobile apps to unlock even more.
The experience also makes room for spontaneous joy—like a spring bloom surprise in the park, a just-baked pastry at a neighborhood café, or a story shared over dinner on the waterfront. The itinerary’s flexible design ensures it works in sun or rain, with indoor and outdoor options that keep travelers engaged either way.
Ideal for couples, families, or friends looking to be curious without being overwhelmed, The Guided City Slicker Adventure is a low-stress, high-reward way to explore the South Sound this season.
