This experience was very fun because my tour guide, Mike was very humorous and knowledgeable and taught me a lot about Seattle and gave facts that were very interesting and informative. I really enjoyed his storytelling. I recommend it next time your in Seattle as it is an amazing place and fun experience. Mike is an awesome and great tour guide. Katya. read more

The tour was fantastic and very informative. As a visitor, I had subscribed to many stereotypical ideas re: Seattle, mainly just coffee, and was happy to "get to know her better" and find out the interesting real-deal tidbits. Our tour guide (Dave!) was terrific and made it even more enjoyable with his delivery and choice of info he shared. Residents and tourists would both benefit from checking into this gem in their backyard for the fun facts. We wound our way through many of the underground passageways and were appreciative of the historical photos and items. The in-sidewalk installations of prisms from above and below viewpoints was fascinating. Be prepared to walk along various types of roadway surfaces, as well as navigate multiple flights of stairs. read more

Patti was our guide and she was informative and delightful! She is proud of her city and gave insights of the underground city and of the development of Seattle after the fire. read more

This was a super interesting tour to say the least! Richard was our tour guide and he actually made it so much fun. He was interactive with the tourists and he was really clever when it came to his witty little jokes. He made something that could have been very boring, very interesting. We learned so much about the city of Seattle and how it was founded and where it all began. I appreciate a place that has a rich history and this little tour that only lasts an hour helps you learn so much. If you're into history, learning interesting random facts and a good little laugh ask for Richard and take the tour. He will hooked you up! read more

Our tour guide,Sarah, was amazing. She was very knowledgeable and you could tell she loves her job. Told us so many interesting things about Seattle and how everything began. Would definitely recommend this tour!!! So glad we took it. We are from New Jersey read more

One of the best parts of going on this tour at the beginning was the people that take care of you and so you tickets and the guide. They put together a story that you can take Home with you and explain to people what you saw. There's many ways to understand the history of Seattle. But to hear it from someone who's invested in learning the little details that make you go wow then this is the group. It leaves its way around Seattle in the underground and above ground and you get not only the underground, but history, the older buildings that are above. I was very impressed with the way that this was handled. Recommended to everyone to try it. read more

Dave was our guide. Very informative and knowledgeable. What a great experience learning about Seattle's history and seeing artifacts. It was AMAZING! The only complaint I have is that there wasn't ADA friendly. There was lots of walking, which I expected, but up and down stairs a bunch was tough. It was worth it, though! read more

What a cool, fun, and educational experience! I had no idea that Seattle's "underground" streets existed, why they existed, or what they were used for before or after they were underground. Our guide was knowledgeable, funny, and welcomed plenty of questions from our curious minds. Wish I remembered his name, but he was awesome! I highly recommend taking this tour for anyone who is visiting or lives in the area! Terrific experience!! *****FIVE STARS***** read more

I've lived in the area for a while, but this tour gave me a whole new appreciation for the city's history. Walking through the original streets of old Seattle, hidden beneath the modern city was so cool! Our guide was engaging, knowledgeable, and funny, making the history come alive with fascinating stories about Seattle's early days, the Great Fire. I loved getting to see remnants of old storefronts and sidewalks from the late 1800s. Pro Tip: I booked my session using GetOutPass, where I get access to multiple local venues similar to GoCity. Use coupon code: sale1 for an extra $5 discount on top of existing promotions, if you end up getting the pass to explore more of Seattle. The Woodland Zoo is also included and not far from here read more

I learned so much about the history of Seattle during this tour lead by Richard. You start at 102 Cherry Street at the basement entrance. You will see the signs. There's a gift shop down there, and restrooms. You'll start there, but get lead back out through the streets, and then back down underground a couple of times. The last two areas did have a stuffy smell, but you're not down there for long. Oh and watch out for Richard, he's a jokester:P read more

We have visited Seattle several times before and we've been wanting to check out this tour. Carter, our tour guide was humorous and made the tour fun and interesting. While I had expected to be able to walk the entire length of the underground area, which would have been so cool, I now understand why we cannot. Definitely worth going on the tour at least once to learn about the history of Seattle. read more

My coworker recommended me to check out this tour during my Seattle trip and I'm glad I did! The tour itself was really informative and I enjoyed learning about the history of Seattle. Our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and was able to answer any questions we had. My favorite part was walking through the tunnels, however, I was expecting to see more of the tunnels but our time there was really short. Overall, I enjoyed this experience and would recommend it to others! read more

Super fun and informative. DAVE IS GREAT! Funny, and super knowledgeable. Would recommend.

We had an amazing time on this tour! Our tour guide, Sarah, was awesome. They were knowledgeable, funny, engaging and lead an amazing tour the day we went. I wish we would have done this tour a long time ago! After living in Seattle over 6 years, there was so much I did not know about this city that I learned on this tour. You learn a bit about how Seattle started as a city, major events of Seattle's past and then of course, all about the "tunnels" under Seattle. The tour takes about an hour and does require walking up and down a few flights of stairs as well as walking outside down a few blocks. Even the rainy day we went though this really was not an issue as you aren't outside for too long. We went through 2 or 3 different sections of the Seattle underground areas and it was really fascinating to see the way the city was built up. Whether you are a local or from out of town this is a great tour to take! read more

I don't want to name the tour guide because he was amazing. This isn't about the tour guide .. the staff is so nice so friendly so knowledge. The tour has information that's interesting all about the history of Seattle and the great fire but that where it ends. The tunnels were suppose to be interesting and yet it was the most boring part of this tour. I thought it was suppose to be cool and it was like being in the basement level / bottom parking garage of a building. There was nothing cool or interesting in these tunnels. Here is a tip remove the social distance stickers from the floor. Covid is over and I'm suppose to be in a location from The past. I'm not a time traveler from the future who has come across the ruins of a building in late 2020 wondering why everyone had to distance themselves and use so much sanitizer. Wouldn't recommend save the money do something else. I give it 3 stars because again the staff was so nice. read more

My partner and I had a very limited two-day trip to Seattle and spent our last morning doing a 10 a.m. Beneath the Streets tour. It was well-worth our money, both for learning important history about the city but also worth it to learn about spots we wouldn't have checked out otherwise - like the Klondike Gold Rush NP Museum! That was courtesy of our great tour guide, Dave, who was also full of jokes and very knowledgeable. I'd definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting the city. read more

Awesome experience! The tour guide answered all of our tough questions. I had a great time. This tour was NOT wheelchair/handicap accessible. You must be able to stand or walk for most of the 60-75 minute tour. If you show your ticket to any of the businesses in the picture I attached you get a discount! read more

Just the name of this tour is intriguing enough to make you want to read more on it and once you do, your in. You never know what to expect walking down to what you initially considered a basement, only to find out you're walking down to the 1st floor. Tour guide Jim Gall will literally both pull you fully into the tour and keep you wanting more, he can take you through a time period with feeling and passion, he made this a phenomenal tour. If you would like to know how Seattle became what it is today and why the basement is not a basement, this tour is for you! Cheers! read more

Our guide Dave gave us a lot of historical tidbits. Readily answered any questions and kept his ear on the questioning suppositions not actually asked. Be prepared for walking quite a bit. On the surface walk, between beneath the street sections, Dave pointed out a number of historical features. If the weather is warm you might want to bring some water. read more

My mom and I flew into Seattle about midday, got a drink and snack at an Irish pub near Pioneer Square and then enjoyed the Beneath The Streets tour. Our guide, Sarah, was very knowledgeable and personable. Be prepared for stairs, but the underground wasn't particularly cold, so this is a good tour even if the weather doesn't cooperate. You'll learn Seattle history and see places you otherwise might have no idea about. We even stopped at a local bar recommended afterwards. read more

We tried to go to Bill Speidel's Underground Tour, but their website made it so cumbersome to buy a ticket online, so we opted to buy it there. Of course, when we finally got there, they were all sold out. No worries, Beneath The Streets was right around the corner and happy to squeeze us into their tour that was just about to start. We had Daniel as our tour guide. He did a great job engaging with all of us on the tour, and he was a great storyteller/historian. He made Seattle's history come alive. Daniel also took all of our questions without hesitation or impatience. He even ran a little long because we were so engaged. Would definitely do another tour with Beneath The Streets. read more

Apologies for the much delayed review :( After seeing the movie "Malignant" and getting a glimpse of underground Seattle which I had no idea about, I had to book an underground tour on our first trip to Seattle back in January of this year. We opted to do an evening tour and I am glad we did as it set a cool vibe for walking around Pioneer Square when we would resurface from below. I believe our tour guide was Terrilyn (apologies if that's incorrect). She was awesome and very energetic & engaging (perhaps a theatre background) but not overly so. In addition, she is extremely knowledgeable of Seattle's history and it was fascinating to learn of the constant struggles and obstacles that the people of Seattle had to overcome during it's early existence. The tour itself is not overly long, however, you do want to wear some comfortable shoes as you will do quite a bit of "easy" walking. Highly recommend getting tickets beforehand as well! read more

I went on the Queer History Tour lead by Eowyn. It was SUCH a meaningful experience to see those stories shared and remembered. Being queer often means feeling isolated and unmoored from community until we go out of our way to seek it out and find something that tells us, "honey, you're home." Also, not for nothing, we passed the regular degular tour a couple times and their group was enormous. Our seven person group of queer needs really got the star treatment and a lot more opportunities to ask questions and chat with our lovely guide! I would absolutely recommend this version of the tour to anyone who wants to dig a little deeper into the history of the area. read more

MIKE!! Mike who I was the narrator for this amazing lesson of how the streets beneath the current streets served as the building blocks of what is now Seattle. He described everything in great detail with the historical value included. His explanation of the Beneath of Seattle was like speaking with someone who lived in the dearly 20th century and explaining with a comedic tone the reasons why, the people who suffered, and the resulting affect and consequences of the actions taken. read more

I highly recommend this tour! It's under two hours with some walking and you get a history lesson from below and above ground. Even though I've been to Seattle a few times before, I did learn a lot from this tour. The few underground rooms with old original relics was my favorite part. Wasn't as many "things" underground as I thought I'd see but well worth the trip. My guide is what made the tour extra special. He was funny, informative, and had a great all around attitude. I made sure I left a nice tip on my way out! Daniel... thank you for an awesome experience and for being a great guide. Ask for Daniel Enderie if you can! Have fun... read more

I liked the tour guide/narrator, he was pretty funny and more engaging than the one who ran the tour before (arrived early so loitered around and overheard their spiel). Very interesting history, and I liked that he gave suggestions of other places to check out after the tour on our own time. Highly recommend. read more
