Enjoy a private guided tour of Seattle’s major highlights, providing an overview of the many and varied charms of this delightful and progressive city. The tour will include attractions such as Pike Place Market, where your informative guide will explain the history of the fish trade, while you browse the stalls and watch the fishmongers expertly tossing their slippery merchandise to the back of the stall for wrapping. You will also see the site of the ‘original Starbucks,’ and visit the city’s famous landmark, the Space Needle. The observation deck provides impressive panoramic views across the city, coastline, and Puget Sound. The birthplace of grunge, Seattle is now home to many artisans, as well as many of America’s big tech companies. A highlight of the tour will be the chance to visit the Chihuly Glass Museum. This showstopping museum exhibits the stunning work of Dale Chihuly, an American blown glass sculptor. Depending on time, there may also be a chance to visit the 19th century homes of Queen Anne Hill or Gas Works Park, once an industrial site and now an urban park adjacent to Lake Union.
