Additional Information

This comprehensive tour of Seattle, showcasing the iconic Space Needle, succinctly encapsulates the city’s art, culture, and history, all within the bounds of the Seattle Center park.

Our sightseeing stroll will kick off just outside the boundaries of the Center. Here, our knowledgeable guide will immerse you in the rich history and growth of the ‘Uptown’ area and the neighboring Queen Anne district.

As we stride past notable landmarks like the Museum of Pop Culture and the Chihuly Garden and Glass, the guide will shed light on the lesser celebrated pieces of art and establishments found on the premises. This includes the famed International Fountain’s melodic tunes and the encompassing entertainment compounds, like the Seattle Opera.

Your tour of Seattle Center may also feature a pitstop at a local coffeehouse and radio station. You can grab some refreshments and nibbles as you discover the intriguing link between Seattle’s music and coffee scenes.

The tour culminates with a timely visit to the Space Needle’s observation point, where you can soak in the stunning vistas of the city and the Puget Sound!

William was an excellent guide. - William was a very excellent guide and enlightened us on many of the intricacies of the Seattle Center and its history that you normally would not see or hear. He was very thorough and interjected personal insights that one would not know otherwise. He was very patient and allowed us whatever time we wanted to see the sights.
