Top Seattle City Tours - page 2

Our guide, Earl, showed us a side of Seattle we never knew about. In this comprehensive and enjoyable 3-hour small group bus tour, we not only covered the downtown area, but went out to see other neighborhoods -- from the "seedy" and colorful, to the 3-story floating homes on the lake, to the posh multi-million dollar homes. Learned about changes in commerce, the rise of the independent coffee shop industry, a little bit of sports trivia and insider tips on quickest ways to get into the stadiums. Went out to see the "locks" and how boats get in and out of the lake into open ocean. Fascinating stuff!! Knowledgeable, witty guide. Excellent tour.

We took the Olympic National Park tour for our last family trip before our son heads to college. We were hoping to enjoy something memorable for this special occasion and the tour exceeded all of our expectations. Pickup was on time and travel to and from the park was smooth and easy. The scenery was breathtaking and unique; pretty much a photo opportunity at every step. The co-stars with the scenery were our guide Marty and his teammate Max. They were both incredible. We couldn’t have asked for nicer, more considerate, or more knowledgeable people leading us than these two. Once on the road, Marty provided great commentary along the way about the history of the areas, the indigenous tribes, and the personality of the cities were passed through. In the park, Marty’s knowledge of the areas - from the lakes to the forest to the beach - the animals, and much more just blew us away. We learned a lot, saw lots of animals (including a bald eagle), and hiked to areas we’ve only seen on postcards. They provided plenty of snacks, drinks, a delicious lunch, and stops for restrooms and rest as needed. It was definitely worth the time and the price. It’ll be a day our family will never forget. And for that we are grateful. Thank you for the memorable experience.

Our tour guide was excellent and did a great job showcasing Seattle. She was knowledgeable, engaging, and provided helpful context for each stop. I would highly recommend this tour for anyone on their first day or first trip to Seattle, as it’s a perfect overview and helps you decide which places you’ll want to return to for a deeper dive later in your visit.

We caught a glimpse of the glaciers and snowy peaks of Mount Rainier from the van, it was snowing and drizzling and cloudy most of the time in the park. But I enjoyed our walks on the snowy steps and on 2 forest trails and learnt about the cedars and doug fir trees and lichen and moss in the forest. Our guide Dan was a great guy, he served us a nice picnic lunch and lots of snacks and drinks to go along. And a surprise treat at the end too. Our ride to the park from Seattle was comfortable and Dan explained a lot about volcanoes and history of the places we passed by. He got us thinking about respecting the mountains and the trees and thinking of how the forces of nature made the park how they were and are today. He is a good guide and pointed out things that we dont know about the park and the trees and rivers that came from the glaciers, sharing his knowledge and love of nature with us. The weather changes very quickly and therefore the mountain changes correspondingly and our experience of it changes dramatically too. Thats what makes the feel of the mountain and the park unique and amazing.

This was hands down one of the most fun tours we did while on vacation – like ever. Jesseca had a deep understanding of Seattle's history and food, paired with such a fun energy. We had a small group, but that made the experience even more fun because we got to know each other better. Every place we got donuts from was better than the last!

My mother and I were looking for something interesting to do in Ballard while we visited with my nephew and partner. They had never done the Ballard Locks so they joined us on the tour. We all 4 really enjoyed the scenery, the narration, and even the snacks and drinks aboard the boat. Highly recommend this tour for all ages!

Great tour hit all the hot spots and extras I never would have thought of, a lot to see in the timeframe, tour was slower but pave for the most part so may not keep interest of kids that like to fly on e-bikes but for adults looking for a real tour this is awesome

Great 3-hour tour of the city and surrounding neighborhoods! Mario was a great host and was super knowledgeable. We saw a lot of different areas outside the city that we would never have had the opportunity to see. Mario was very kind and courteous. We enjoyed the tour very much!
