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.

Everyone is herded into a small space, a story is told, and then it's onto the next area. Want time to enjoy the experience? To look around and take pictures? Nope- onto the next. Want to learn more about the original buildings that you are standing in front of? Barely covered. Or the amazing debris that scatters the areas? Nope. Take Pictures as you walk, because that is all the time you will get. Oh, and if you are hard of hearing? You won't be able to hear the tour guide well. There are just too many people. -Wish I could have asked for a refund- *IF YOU ARE SENSITIVE TO MOLD or DUST WEAR A MASK!!!*

Went on the Seattle free walking tour on a Saturday. I have been on many free tours as a way to…read moreget to know a new city and was hoping this would be similar. Unfortunately my friend and I found the tour rather boring. The leader (cannot recall his name) initially shared some interesting history, but we actually saw very little of the city. We spent way too long at some of the 'stops' listening to the guide's stories, but we got tired of his 'jokes' and just didn't find it very engaging. The tour could have been 1 hour... 2 hours was way too long.

https://seattlefreetours.com/…read more We opted for two tours from Seattle Free Walking Tours, and both were entertaining, educational, and highly enjoyable! SEATTLE 101 Tour guide Joe provided an in-depth history of Seattle, with plenty of stops to showcase key points of interest. Joe was really personable, very funny, and offered a wealth of facts and info. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! THE MARKET EXPERIENCE TOUR Tour guide Curtis delivered a history and tour of Pike Place Market - and it is essential, because the place is huge. With so many twisty buildings, unexpected stairwells and hard-to-find areas this tour was as informative and helpful as it was entertaining. Next time you are in Seattle sign up for these tours!! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

It was my last full day in Seattle and was trying to decide how I'd end my night here. I…read moreremembered seeing this ghost tour on tiktok and right away I booked tickets. The tour started much later in the evening so bring a coat! We got there a little early so we were able to browse the museum, which was fairly tiny but interesting. Our tour guide was Kim and she was a joy to be around. She really knows how to tell a story and keeps you involved in the tour. (Listening to evps, watching videos, asking questions) Our tour group was small but it made the whole experience feel much more personal. We walked all around Pioneer Square and visited haunted locations. My favorite stop was at the "Merchant Cafe". We actually entered and sat in their underground lounge. It was very spooky and took a few pictures to see if I could spot anything. The whole tour was made even spookier by the actual buildings around us. The mixture of older historical buildings and closed/abandoned buildings. Beware it is rundown and many homeless people but they keep to themselves. And I also felt something push my back during one of the stops. The guide was telling us about a specific spirit that was known for being "grabby" with women. Haha yikes. 4th ghost tour I've been on and excited to do more. Surprisingly I'm still a skeptic!

First of all, I want to start this review by stating that I did not get to attend this tour because…read moreI was late (which I will admit) but I am still giving one star due to the rude staff member who worked at the starting location of this tour. On Saturday, the 21st, four of us were scheduled to go and do this tour and we were extremely excited. After dealing with the atrocious Seattle traffic and terrible parking situations down by the pier I was already very frustrated. Our party arrived at the Ye Olde Curiosity Shop at 7:04 for our 7:00 pm tour and asked the worker where the tour meets to which the rude worker just replied under their breath, "they left" and returned to work.I explained that I understood we were late but were hoping we could catch up with them. I asked that same worker where the tour meets and they said, "In a big group outside" and continued to work. While we were on the pier in Seattle this information was not helpful. Trying to salvage the night, we went outside and tried to walk around and look for a "big group of people" on the crowded Seattle pier on a Saturday night. After a few minutes I went back inside he shop frustrated and asked the worker if they could find someone that was actually helpful that could answer some questions. With some reluctancy this person called their accommodating manager who explained that the tour heads to the right and described exactly what the tour guide was wearing. Ultimately we were unable to catch up with our tour guide because of how much time was wasted with this worker who was unwilling to help us at all. Again I understand we were late, but stuff happens. This place needs to hire people who have customer service skills.

This particular marker pays homage to the memory of the Florida Militia men, the Tenessee Volunteers and the Native American's who fought a skirmish here.

The land here is WET, there is a primitive camping site, and the Wahoo Community center. The name alone is fun to say. Cattle abound on all sides and of course a GLORIOUS black walnut tree.
