Overview

Seattle packs a lot into one skyline, and this is the easy way to take it all in. Built for first-time visitors and anyone short on time, the tour pairs the city’s must-see icons with the local, offbeat corners most day-trippers miss. You ride in a comfortable small-group van with a guide who fills in the history and culture as you go, so all you have to do is relax, watch the city roll by, and hop out at the best spots to stretch your legs and take photos. By the end of the day, you will have seen the landmarks, the hidden gems, and the views that make the Emerald City legendary.
