Are you doing an overnight stay in Leavenworth with bus travel each way. This would be marvelous.
Hi Ronald,
Thanks for reaching out. Our trip to Leavenworth is a day trip and does not include an overnight stay, just bus travel each way. However, we do have a package that includes an overnight stay at the Bellevue Red Lion – https://www.clippervacations.com/multi-package/leavenworth-town-tree-lighting-with-bellevue-hotel-stay/, which is one of our departure locations for our Leavenworth trip. That way you can beat the traffic out of town and arrive the night before your trip and have the evening to explore Bellevue. Please let me know if there is anything else I can help with or if you have any other questions.
Cheers,
Brenna
When and where does bus leave Seattle area, and how long is the stay in Leavenworth?
Hi Micheal,
Our Seattle bus departs from the Victoria Clipper terminal at Pier 69, you can see a map here). Check in for the bus is at 8:45 am and the bus departs at 9:00 am. You will have approximately 5 hours and 45 minutes to spend exploring the town of Leavenworth. Please let me know if you have any other questions I can help with, we’d love to have you come on the trip with us!
Cheers,

Hi !We are planning day trip with small kids.Is there a play area with snow?Sleigh ride or so?Thanks.
Hi Nadia,
Great question! Yes, there is typically snow in Leavenworth during the holiday season, and it looks quite beautiful with all of the Christmas lights. There is also sledding at Front Street Park, which is located right in town, as well as sleigh rides nearby, you can find more information about them here: https://leavenworth.org/experience/sleigh-rides/
Let me if you have any other questions or if I can help plan your trip.
Cheers,
