Our guide crushed it! Michael was great and he gave us so much information on the area. He was able to story tell so well too.
The tour was entertaining. I liked the weaving of Native Peoples and Japanese/Japanese Americans into the haunted stories going back to Chief Seattle. We went by the "gum wall" which was disgusting and interesting at the same time. Tour is worth booking.
Very cool and interesting piece of learning history about the pike place and certain spirits that may linger in Seattle.
Very informative.The ghost tour was spooky, fun, and full of fascinating stories! The guide made the experience unforgettable.
Queen was an excellent tour guide! Very entertaining and really knew the "spooky" hot spots of Seattle.
Guide had a good knowledge of the history. Well delivered. We found the guide entertaining to listen to.
Great tour with a lot of seattle history enjoyed seeing and hearing about old seattle Nice job and great evening
The tour guide is great. Very friendly and Knowledgeable. You don't get to go into the buildings they talk about tho which was a bit of a let down.
Fun tour. Michael F was a great guide, using different voices to portray the different characters in the stories he was telling us, making the stories more engaging. Very personable. He took time between stops to speak to every group in the tour, making you feel included. Highly recommend the tour and the tour guide!
I thought it was pretty good but it I wished it would have been a little longer and given a little more history about Seattle. Overall it was a good tour.
Michael was so informative and entertaining! This was a great way to start my first time in Seattle.
Queen was amazing! She is an excellent story teller and shared so much with us about the city and its history.
It was a great time fast way to see the city. When you're only there for a night was perfect. We did it at night so the nightlife lights were amazing as well. And it was safe.
We had Queen and she was AMAZING! She had so much knowledge about Seattle and was great at telling us all of the histories of the different areas. We would take a tour with her again 100%
It was great. Really fun. The tour guide was very knowledgeable. And we got to walk all over and see the city.
Richardo was such a great storyteller even with his silly Dad jokes. Such a unique and fun experience. Some hills and stairs so be prepared with go walking shoes.
Really just a nighttime walking tour. The guide was friendly and struck up a conversation with just about everyone in the group, but we didn’t go in any of the locations. Everything is as described on the tour info, but just felt a little lacking.
So great! Perfect intro to the city, such a fun way to get some city history and get a few ghost stories for the books!
Our tour guide Queen was very knowledgeable about the local lore. She didn’t just tell us, she enacted she modeled, and made us ponder the paranormal. She made this tour to be very interactive. She provided ghost chat boxes and K2 meters to add to the fun!
Historical look at Seattle through past crimes and assorted villains. Tour guide was lighthearted yet did a good job talking substance about some bad people. I liked the parts where our tour guide showed how hard working gold miners would be pounced upon by the Seattle villains. The presentation style was solid. Our tour guide was well prepared. The first art of the tour included a steep and somewhat lengthy hill which is not anyone’s fault because it is an outdoor tour and Seattle is full of hills. Just be prepared for some hills. I’d give the tour length a A+. As it was the perfect length. I’d give the presenter an A+ too. Personable but yet respectful to tell the tales of Seattle history. I would an a caveat that steep hill at start of tour just as a friendly reminder.
I was really looking forward to this tour and was very disappointed. As soon as we walked up to the group, I let the tour guide know that we really could not hear him with the street noise and the fact that the speaker was on his back, but he wanted to face us did not help. I am a fairly young person, with pretty good hearing and I could not hear anything. He led us to the Gum Wall, which is also a really cool spot, but the acoustics in the area are not easy to hear, and there were other people around that were speaking loudly. We went to the front of the Public Market, as a group we tried to stay left side of him, but for the life of me I couldn't tell you what one story was about. Toward the end of the tour, he led us through a parking lot with several unhoused people. While we were standing at the entrance to the parking lot, we were verbally accosted by a resident. We do take responsibility for our part of the misunderstanding. However, I can't help but wonder, why we were led through this parking lot. Maybe there was something in the monologue that explained why, but I could not hear it. Further, the tour guide did not come over to resolve the situation, nor did he acknowledge the incident with our group. I am very disappointed. Perhaps a smaller group would have made it more manageable, or investing in an audio system would be a good choice. Regardless, my recommendation is to stay in the hotel and watch a documentary about Seattle.
Horrible. Don't waste your time or money. Bud 1 small hill was 3 mountains to climb. Zach was boring, his speaker system was terrible. We left the your half way through.
Do not book
It was fun and informative! I do wish the tour guide could have been a bit louder maybe with a portable mic but otherwise great tour!
It was cool getting to hear the multiple stories of historic people revolving around Seattle and to figure out what they're infamous/benevolent for. Especially the many buildings that have been simply affected by certain events that caused them to become haunted. :D
Had a great time with Dan, he was very entertaining, knowledgeable of the area and had good stories to tell. Would’ve liked a little more scary and ghost related stories but overall a good evening.
Our tour guide Rob was awesome, he was patient, kind, funny and very knowledgable. Would highly recommend.
They can and will change your tour time with little notice and not offer or communicate an alternative this company SUCKS!!!
A wonderful walking tour of history and local lore! We had a great time learning about the darker side of history of the city.
Nice walk hearing the stories of the city. Not too scary or sinister. It was a short experience but fun.
Sarah showed up 30 minutes late unfortunately. Other guests and our entire party left. Poor communication from the tour guide, and no sense of urgency upon arrival. We saw them once we walked out from the meeting point.
