A fun experience, a bit off the beaten path in the Fremont neighborhood of Seattle…read more We ventured from downtown to check out the troll. Very easy access via a city bus route. After a short stroll down a well-designed dirt path, we found the giant troll. The troll is great for photos and has a sign that describes the history of the troll. My kids enjoyed climbing around the area, too. Facing the opposite direction from the troll is a very cool bridge that creates some awesome cathedral-like architecture. There is lots to do in Fremont, and even though the troll is kind of a one-and-done deal, it's worth checking out simply to explore the rest of the neighborhood and awesome surrounding businesses. Enjoy your troll hunt!

A visit to the Fremont Troll under the Aurora Bridge is a fun and quirky Seattle stop. Sculpted in…read more1990 by four artists after a competition launched by the Fremont Arts Council to help combat the garbage and clutter that had been collecting under bridges, the troll has become one of the city's most iconic public art pieces. It's a great destination to bring out-of-town visitors--like me--to check out another troll! As a fan of the whimsical trolls created by Thomas Dambo, this was a must-see. Street parking is available nearby, making it an easy stop while exploring the neighborhood. I'd personally recommend not climbing on the troll due to safety concerns, although many people were doing so when we visited. Either way, it's a unique photo opportunity and a classic Seattle experience.

We were able to purchase timed tickets earlier on the same day to access the observation deck and…read morelounge near sunset. We timed it for a half-hour prior to sunset and wish we'd made it an hour before since it was a wait at times to capture photos due to so many people. The views were incredible and very enjoyable to walk the entire outer deck perimeter and then go inside to the lounge. The interior space was exciting to see clear glass floors with views of the gears working to rotate the outer lounge. It was a disconcerting feeling to walk on the glass, but definitely a memorable experience. We easily wandered around the observatory for at least an hour. Would have liked to maybe grab a drink and sat for a while, but it was fairly crowded. There is also a restaurant space if visitors want a dining experience with a fantastic view.

If you're thinking about going to Sky. View or the Space Needle for the view, I highly recommend…read moreSky View. I (unfortunately) paid $24 for parking right in the Columbia Center although there is street parking and other lots near/around Columbia Center. When I came around 4:30pm on a weekday, the building was dead - the food court was all closed. After scanning your ticket, you get in the elevator that takes you to the 73rd floor. Everything is indoors and you get a 360 view of the PNW. It's great if you're able to catch the sunset on a cloud free day. If you get the cafe voucher, you can combine them together to spend on food, drinks, or souvenirs. The space is a little dated but the views are worth it. Overall, a better option for PNW views than the Space Needle however there's no outdoor area.

Didn't expect to spend 2 hours here, but the views, the fresh air and food and drink, made it easy…read moreeven with my fear of heights. Tickets were about $50 I think ( I didn't pay for myself), there's a gift store located on the lower level with mugs, magnets, post cards, sweaters, bags, and so much more. You're able to see views of the city, the water and some parts of the islands. There's a bar and an area to order small bites. I ordered an apple and ice cream I gave about a 6/10 definitely reminded me of apple pies from McDonald's. Didn't get to buy a drink from the bar as the lady there totally ignored us while in front of her( decided to spend any money at either bar). Purchased a few things from the gift shop before leaving... 10/10 experience I totally loved and enjoyed the whole experience please try it out!!!!!

I visited the Space Needle on May 14, 2026 around 3:30 PM. I purchased a ticket specifically to…read moreexperience and see the glass floor attraction. However, after going up, I noticed that the glass floor area was closed off for a private event. Unfortunately, there was no clear notice or warning about this before purchasing tickets or entering. I was very disappointed because this was the primary reason for my visit, and I felt like I wasted my money coming here. I understand private events happen, but I believe guests should be informed ahead of time when a major attraction or feature is unavailable so they can make an informed decision before purchasing tickets :( Wanted to share this feedback in hopes that future visitors can have a better experience.
