This Seattle tour has it all: art, history, culture, and incredible views from the top of the iconic Space Needle! Our Seattle tour starts with a walk around the Queen Anne neighborhood and Seattle Center. As we pass by landmarks like the Museum of Pop Culture and Chihuly Garden and Glass, your local tour guide will point out the grounds’ lesser-known artworks and institutions, from the famous musical International Fountain to surrounding entertainment complexes like the Seattle Opera.

Once there, you’ll enjoy a 360-degree Space Needle tour with your guide, who will point out other city landmarks and provide some Seattle history background.

Sam is the best! He is so knowledgeable, friendly, helpful and kind. We had a great time! He even brought us umbrellas.

Fantastic Tour of Seattle and the Space Needle.

Published on Nov, 2024

We had an absolutely brilliant time on this tour of Seattle and the iconic Space Needle! Our guide, Sam, was exceptional. His depth of knowledge about Seattle’s history and the stories of how the city was settled and built were both fascinating and engaging. Sam’s storytelling was not only insightful but also sprinkled with humor, which made the tour even more enjoyable. He had a great way of bringing history to life and connecting it to the vibrant city Seattle is today. The Space Needle itself was, of course, a highlight, but it was Sam’s guidance throughout the day that truly made the experience memorable. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Seattle—whether it’s your first time or you’re a local looking to rediscover the city!

Wonderful tour and very worth it! Our tour guide William was so knowledgeable and affectionate about this beautiful city and its history- the space needle tour does not disappoint and neither does walking around and learning about the meaning and symbolism behind your surroundings.

Great custom tour

Published on Sep, 2024

William was patient, knowledgeable, and worked with our group's special needs. We enjoyed a custom tour that included the Space Needle, IMAX, movie, walking tour, and the Armory. I appreciated his unique perspective, although it was hard to hear him occasionally as he is soft spoken.

He is very knowledgeable about the history of Seattle, and he didn't make the tour feel like it was too long, I appreciated his restaurant recommendations at Pike's Place Market as well.
