Best of Seattle Walking Tour W/ Space Needle

Experience the lively spirit of Seattle on the Best of Seattle Walking Tour W/ Space Needle by See Sight Tours. This tour is curated for small groups for a more personalized experience. The guests will visit the city's iconic landmarks, see stunning views, learn about the city's rich history, and get a feel of the everyday vibe of the Emerald City.

Your tour will begin at the Space Needle where your guide meets all the guests. The Space Needle is Seattle’s enduring symbol of humanity's Space Age aspiration. You will ride an elevator to reach the observation deck from where you’ll have a perfect photo-opportunity against the backdrop of the city's skyline, Puget Sound, and even Mount Rainier on a clear day. 

Next you will set out on a scenic city walk and explore Seattle’s life and character on foot. While strolling through bustling avenues, tree-lined streets, and public art, you will catch glimpses of everyday Seattle life, local cafes, and waterfronts where you can take a break and breathe in the fresh coastal air.

Next, you’ll board a tranquil harbor cruise to see Seattle from the serene Elliott Bay. You will be pleasantly surprised by how Seattle can look and feel so different in shifting light from the water. The harbor cruise will slow down the pace of your tour and let you relax as you take in the beautiful views of the city framed by calm waves.

The tour then takes an intriguing turn as the guide takes you underground to Beneath the Streets. These are the original passageways left after the Great Seattle Fire of 1889. Here, you will have an immersive experience into Seattle’s early days as you explore a hidden side of the city most visitors never see. Your guide will bring history to life with stories of old Seattle days and of those who helped shape Pioneer Square into the historic district it is today.

Throughout the tour, you’ll pass by sights that have a story to tell. One of those sights is the Smith Tower, once the tallest building west of the Mississippi, and a reminder of Seattle’s early ambitions. You will also walk by The eclectic Seattle Art Museum and Pike Place Market where you will get a taste of the community spirit that defines Seattle.

This small-group tour is a perfect way to experience the sights and hear the stories of a city that has inspired visitors and locals for decades.
