What are people saying about Seattle Waterfront

Lucy_G, Jun 2026

Seattle City Highlights Tour - perfect to get the lay of the land!

This tour was excellent for our family which includes two teenagers. Bryan was a great guide! He held our attention well and was very knowledgeable about the area. The 3 hour experience flew by! It was nice that we had several stops where we exited the bus and had an allotted amount of time to explore on our own. This was our first trip to Seattle, and I really felt like the tour was well worth the money and that it gave us a great overview of the city.

The top of Seattle

The glass floor is breathtaking. Be forewarned and the multiple views of Seattle make it a must see-even if you were born here and took it for granted

Recommend taking this trip first when you get to Seattle

Guide Bryan was so spectacular, knowledgeable, inclusive, caring, and strategic. Definitely worthwhile Trip. Brian also gave us tips on what to do next in Seattle, how to take advantage of the best ferry rides and options. It was a robust and wonderful learning experience. He navigated the traffic and had a sweet sense of humor.
