About this experience
Visit the best of Seattle with a private guide with you every step of the way. On your private tour, you will explore the waterfront and meander through the historic Pike Market and see the world’s first Starbucks. Then, hop aboard the city’s monorail for a quick transfer a mile up the road. Here, your guide will take you through another pocket of the city’s treasures, as time allows. Your tour finishes with timed-entrance tickets to the Space Needle, where your guide will help you hop in line. Your dual-ticket also gets you entrance for the day to Chihuly Garden and Glass, which is well worth spending a large portion of your day. We suggest taking a little food break before going into the Chihuly museum, as the artwork in there is best explored at your leisure.
