Best for locals
The tour has remained a lasting and enjoyable memory. It was, perhaps, made more enjoyable by the stories I had heard growing up in a community across Puget Sound and, in part, from watching all those "Here Come the Brides" episodes on television years ago. The show was really a parody of the politics, treachery, and lechery, but it did superficially touch on the hardships associated with settling in an untamed land. If you see the tour as an opportunity to briefly submerge yourself in the past, I believe you will enjoy the experience.
