Description

Be sure to read the Special Notes further down this page for important requirements and restriction.

Board your motorcoach for an exciting day exploring Seattle's most popular attractions by land and by sea! Your narrated city drive takes you through the Emerald City's vibrant downtown area, elegant boutique-lined streets and the International District, home of Seattle's Chinatown, a protected historic district.

Continue through the city, pausing for a photo opportunity in the Pioneer Square district, considered to be the birthplace of modern Seattle. After a fire in 1888 destroyed most of the downtown area, all builders were required to use brick. The result is an exceptional example of Classical Revival architecture and an area of National Historic distinction. Pioneer Square has a plethora of wonderful art galleries and antique shops.

A high point of any visit to Seattle is a ride to the top of the world-famous Space Needle. Built in 1962 for the World's Fair, it has become the symbol of Seattle and one of the most recognized urban structures in the world. The observation deck is 520 feet in the air and a 43-second high-speed elevator ride brings you to the top. The panoramic views are spectacular and include snow-capped Mt. Rainier, the Cascade Mountains and the majestic Olympic Mountain range. Complimentary Swarovski telescopes get you even closer to the action.

Get ready to dodge some flying fish at your next stop, Pike Place Market. The oldest open-air farmer's market on the West Coast, this 9-acre public market boasts hundreds of artisans, local farmers, fishmongers and curio shops. One of the main attractions is to watch the employees throw salmon and other fish to each other instead of passing them by hand. Just order a fish at one of the ice-covered tables and watch your "catch of the day" come sailing through the air to be prepped for sale. You'll also want to check out the very first Starbucks, have a cappuccino, and toast to the place where coffeehouse history began.

After shopping to your heart's content and avoiding any fish that may be flying through the air, board a sightseeing vessel for a waterside view of the city.

Float past multi-million dollar yachts, the unique houseboat made famous in the film "Sleepless in Seattle," and enjoy the beautiful skyline views. Enjoy live narration of Seattle's history as you float along the spectacular skyline. Playful sea otters and seals are plentiful, so be sure to look for them as you cruise. Experience Seattle's own Fisherman's Terminal and the Hiram Chittenden Locks, where you ride in style through the "water elevator." Following your cruise, transfer back to port via motorcoach.
