This tour shows the hidden Seattle below your feet as you wander around Pioneer Square. You go below the surface to discover our fair city's way of dealing with the scourge of daily floods from the incoming tides. There's a lot of strange hidden things, and the tours give a lot of local color and history. Well worth the time.

Not the fanciest thing, but great if you have friends coming into town, especially young kids or older people. It starts at pier 56 on the waterfront of downtown seattle, then involves a 30 minute boat ride on an argosy cruise boat to Blake Island. once you get there, you get clams (don't eat them, they never clean those huge pots, you might notice the people that work there don't eat them...) but it's fun to stomp the clam shells into the walkway. Then you get the great salmon lunch/dinner (depending on what time you go) the salmon is GREAT, and the bread is even better!!! i love the potatoes... but the bread, if you come out for seconds during the show and there's still bread left, take as much as you can... best bread you'll ever have... the show is cool, and when your done with your food there is a chocolate in the shape of a salmon. then you have time to walk around the island (don't walk around the whole island, you'll miss your boat back to seattle) and there is an ice cream shoppe, the ice cream is amazing as well!!! all the staff are real friendly and it's a good time. it's something like 60 dollars per adult, i believe. but all in all it takes up a good chunk of time for entertaining friends and family.

The space needle is absolutely the most marvelous place to visit while in Seattle. It is gorgeous at night and an outstanding view during the day. The ride to the observation tower is fun too. We have also dined in their restaurant and have also have had group events in their private rooms. Everything is also tended to in a careful manner which always make a huge impression.

super slow is fine, if that's what it takes for you to get there and back. for that matter, you can walk if you need to. if you do this at least 2x a week, no matter where you live in seattle (aside from maybe belltown), you will not need a diet. in fact, you will be able to completely get rid of worrying about what you eat and when entirely. one final suggestion, and it only costs $3/day (less than curves! less than health clubs! less thanspecial "low fat" food!): take the bus to & from work everyday. it will work and it will help your city too.

The first thing I wanted to do when I visited Seattle was go up to the top of the space needle. The views are amazing. You can see Lake Washington, Lake Union, and all of the neighborhoods of Seattle. The staff was great, and the food was delicious! Highly recommended. It is rather pricey, but is well worth it.

Prices are unbeatable. They are open very late and is a good place to hangout and bowl. Throw parties there because it's a great place. They have two separate sections for the smokers and non-smokers. The location is good, but violence is high as it gets dark. Other than that, the prices for beer and food are great.

The local people that run the Seattle Underground tour do a fabulous job of integrating Seattle’s brief history, with light comedy, and other interesting facts, to make this tour a must visit part of Seattle. I found it fascinating to learn about how Seattle was built, then burnt down to the ground, only to be rebuilt in a rush with only pseudo controlled planning by the government and people.

You can bet that Jake (she drives a blood-red van) won't be taking you to the typical crowded touristy locales. I live in Seattle and found this tour fascinating. Especially the part about the Comet Hill cemetary on Beacon Hill. Creepy! I highly recommend this tour to anyone seeking an alternative way to entertain out-of-towners. You'll be taken around in Jake's van so seating capacity is small, but makes for a more intimate setting than a tour bus.

I recently went on a date to the Seattle Center and even though we didn't have a lot in common, the Seattle Center is a place where there is always something going on. From rides, to games, to exhibits, there isn't a dull moment. It also helped to break the ice between my date and I because you really get to know someone well when you are gripping onto them on a rollar coaster! The only downfall of this area is the price. It can get a little pricey but I would definetly recommend it.
