Explore the magic of the Emerald City on this grand 4-hour tour of Seattle. Experience the vibrant tastes and sights of Seattle, while exploring distinct neighborhoods such as Chinatown and catch the perfect views from Queen Ann Hill. This public tour provides an excellent overview of Central Seattle from a comfortable bus with large viewing windows. Our tour stops at least four times throughout the excursion. We allow you to get out some on foot to explore as we believe it helps in experiencing the city and neighborhoods properly. We only offer one tour a day so we thrive on making ours the most complete tour of Seattle without you feeling like you're being hurried. Another great benefit is there is NO extra charge to be picked up at 90 percent of Seattle hotels- we are the ONLY tour company to offer this benefit- GRATIS! IF PREARRANGED IN ADVANCE we can even offer drop-offs at Cruise Ports for an EXTRA FEE after the tour ends (AFTER 2:30pm).

Captain Steve was knowledgeable and entertaining. Made the tour more enjoyable. We didn't feel rushed at stops. He went out of his way to accommodate his passengers. If we return to Seattle, we'd ask for him on another tour.

Exploring the different neighborhoods such as Pioneer Square, and the different points to view the city. I personally think we could have spent more time at Pike’s Public Market and less time at the locks.
