Tacoma, WA Tourism

Tacoma Tourism

Sitting at the foot of Mount Rainier, from whose former name the city takes its name, Tacoma is the perfect base point for exploring Mount Rainier National Park and the spectacular landscape surrounding. The Rocky Mountain surrounds make a great playground for skiers, hikers and outdoor adventurers, while the city itself provides ample entertainment for those in search of museums, arts and culture. Take a romantic stroll across the 500 foot glass footbridge leading to the iconic Museum of Glass.
