What to expect
MARKET Seafood Eatery
Some of the best seafood in town, in the setting of the iconic Seattle Art Museum.
Seven Seas Building
Former home of the iconic Lusty Lady, this building has been vacant since 2011. It is the last remaining reminder of a very different 1st Ave that existed until only recently.
The Showbox
A historic music venue established in 1939, known for hosting a wide range of artists from the Jazz Age through the Grunge Era to contemporary acts, making it a significant cultural landmark in the city's music scene.
Pike Place Market
The tour operates in the area in and around Pike Place Market. There will be spots to stop for views, pictures, and maybe even to see a fish being thrown! Your guide is a certified Pike Place Market tour guide and can answer any questions you may have!
Lonely Siren
Stunning Portuguese bar and restaurant with a lively atmosphere. An "Off the Beaten Path" section.
Pike Place Fish Market
It sure is fun to see fish fly!
Truffle Queen
20+ year old family run business with direct connections to artisanal Italian suppliers of truffle, cheese, pesto, wine, and more.
Lands of Origin
Started in 2022 by an Ethiopian Immigrant, this bakery will light up your taste buds like nowhere else.
Seattle Waterfront
On a clear day you can see 2 mountain ranges frame the waters of Elliot Bay
Overlook Walk
Seattle's newest city park is also its most stunning. Overlooking the Puget Sound, this waterfront connector features food stalls, music, and 360 degree views.
Pike Place Market
The "original" (okay not so original) location of everybody's favorite airport coffee shop.
City Fish Co.
The oldest fish market in the city, not the most famous. Try some smoked salmon or maybe a scallop on the half shell.
The Virginia Inn
The oldest running business in Pike Place Market. What used to be a hotel and bar/restaurant now features Market sponsored low income senior housing and some of the best seafood in the city.
SELEUŠS Chocolates
Each truffle at Seleušs is tailored by master chocolatier, Alexander Long. He scours the globe for the perfect chocolate for each variety of truffle. Try one with fruit, honey, liquor or tobacco.
The experience can be subject to change due to bad weather or unforseen circumstances. We always endeavour to give you the best possible experience.
