Northwest Trek Wildlife Park is a MUST while you're here (especially with the family). They have all kinds of live Pacific Northwest animals to visit with and we highly recommend taking the tram tour around the preserve to see the elk, mountain goats, bobcats, deer, and everything else! They also have a cafeteria style restaurant, playground, zip line, and a wedding venue. Well worth a visit! Be sure to check if they're open because they are a seasonal attraction that closes during winter.

Arts & Culture

Although initially, the Museum focused exclusively on Dale Chihuly the legendary glass artist, he insisted it include works in glass by artists worldwide. Tacoma honored him with the spectacular Chihuly Bridge of Glass, and the Museum was able to broaden its appeal by honoring international artists. See the amazing work he and other glass artists have created, watch glass blowing demonstrations, and visit the 10 other nearby museums and galleries to make it a day!
