Guided Tours offer a unique opportunity to learn the true nature and history of Mount Washington. Our guides have extensive experience on the Auto Road and in the local area. They are part geologists, historians, and entertainers. With our guides, you get intimate, first-hand knowledge of the White Mountains, along with stories and anecdotes about the people that have lived, adventured and recreated here.

If you are in a group larger than 8-10 people, please be aware you will be riding in two separate guided tour vans. If you book everyone for the same departure time, you will all depart the base together, be together at the top of the tour, and return to base together. Large groups of over 24 people, please see information on Group Tours.

The 2-Hour Guided Tours depart the base and the summit with the same individuals. If you are hiking, and are interested in one-way transportation, please visit our Hiker Shuttle page.

If there is space available, we will sell remaining seats for a 2-Hour Guided Tour on a first-come basis, weather permitting. If a tour is “Sold Out,” there will not be walk-in ticket sales.
