    Poor experience

    Miguel_A, Jul 2026
    I come from a Spanish-speaking country and signed up for the tour in English, but it was conducted almost entirely in Mandarin Chinese; the people involved didn't speak English. The guide seemed lost and didn't know where he was taking us—he didn't even know the location of Amazon Headquarters, which is part of the tour. He also claimed I hadn't paid for the tour, which is impossible, as Viator wouldn't issue a ticket without payment. It was a very bad experience. On top of that, he was falling asleep while driving.

    Response from Host, Jul 2026

    Thank you for your feedback. We are very sorry for the poor experience you had on our tour. After reviewing your concerns with our guide, we acknowledge the following: Language: The tour was indeed conducted mainly in Mandarin. While our guide did try to give you personal English commentary, we understand this was not sufficient. We will improve our handling of multilingual groups going forward. Navigation: The guide made GPS errors and took multiple wrong turns before reaching the correct sites. This was our mistake, and we will take steps to prevent it from happening again. Driver alertness: The guide insists he was not sleepy, but we take safety concerns very seriously and will reinforce our policies on driver rest and attentiveness. Payment: The guide mistakenly questioned your payment status, but we have since confirmed that your booking was properly paid through Viator. No payment was requested from you. We sincerely regret this experience. As a goodwill gesture, we would like to offer you a partial refund or a complimentary future tour—please let us know your preference. We hope you will give us another chance to serve you better.

    Pikes market is huge so map it out before go on this tour because you won’t have time to see it all. This tours should allow at least 4 hours. The Amazon stop was not needed I would have liked to spend more time at the space needle and Pike Market.

    Response from Host, May 2025

    Seattle day trip

    The pick up location hasn't got a second option. But the driver was very helpful. The tour was running smoothly and quite enjoyable.

    Terrible/untrustworthy

    Tracey_H, Aug 2024
    I booked an English speaking tour, was told I had a Chinese speaking tour, once I voiced my concerns the company did not refund money or listen to my concerns in not fulfilling their contract obligations with what I had purchased

    Response from Host, Aug 2024

    Please accept our sincere apologies for any inconvenience caused. All of the tour guides are bilingual and could speak certain levels of fluent English. Still, we are aware that the guide’s English may not be as natural as Native Speaker. Once again,we apologize for this issue and thank you for your understanding.

    Fun trip to Seattle

    Danial was a wonderful guide. Although English was not his mother tongue, he made good effort in his commentary and was engaging. The itinerary was excellent and we had a good time

    Seattle in a day!

    Karen_D, Jul 2023
    It’s very amazing to see the Chihuly Garden and Glass. 1 day trip is not enough to see the beauty of Seattle so if you want to go there better book for 2 days.

    Better go by yourself

    LaurieAnne_P, Jul 2023
    You're stuck on the bus a lot. Driver was late to pick up location. You actually don't have time to go up the space needle cause it's too crowded, but you have to find something to do for the 2hrs you're there. Pike Market is WAY too crowded to enjoy any of it. No washrooms on the bus. This was my 2nd trip with Viator and both were kinda mediocre. Won't book with them again.

    Response from Host, Jul 2023

    sorry for not providing the perfect tour. on a saturday of the holiday. the traffic sure is a very important factor for our tour experiences. the tour guide was late because of it. the space needle also get so crowded, but we still make a stop for 1 hour for our cusotmers to tour around. Pike Market is also a main stop for this tour, considering the crowded people, the tour guide made the duration to 2 hours. we were trying our best to complete our itinerary. What can we do next time to make this a 5 star experience? We look forward to hearing from you and welcoming you back on your next tour with us!

    Suggestion: conseiller...

    Suggestion: conseiller aux clients de réserver leurs places pour le Space Needle en amont de la journée.. Nous sommes arrivés au SN à 15h mais aucun ticket disponible avant 18h! C'est dommage..
