Since the first people journeyed forth, looking for education, adventure, or pure enjoyment, travelers have sought to renew and enlighten themselves through exploring the natural beauty, history, and culture of new and different landscapes. Washington’s scenic highways pave the way to these encounters.

The Heritage Tour series offers narrated audio guides, including traditional music and stories from local residents along various routes through Washington state. The tours point out spectacular natural sites and places of historic interest, and introduce you to the people along the route and their rich array of traditional expressions of our culture.

NEW: MP3s of the audio tracks for our heritage tour guides are now available through Apple iTunes, Napster and 42 other digital download websites. They can also be purchased through our on-line tour guide distributor CDBaby by simply clicking on the desired tour link on our ordering page.
