He took us around to both small and large batch distilleries My husband and I have been on a lot of tasting tours over the years and can say, hand on heart, that this is one of the best one we have ever been on. Don picked us up from our house and we spent the day touring bourbon and whiskey distilleries. We discovered a world that we didn't know existed, and we've been living in Seattle since 2004! We got to sample a LOT of different bourbons and whiskeys and ended up bringing some excellent ones home, after learning about the different varieties of each kind. All in all an excellent experience!

We had an awesome time on this tour today. It's a weekday so the tour itself was just me and my…read morehusband and another couple. We started at a bar near pike place market and tried two small servings of cocktails serving liquors from local distilleries. One was a negroni featuring gin from Copperworks and the other was a Moscow mule using hopped whisky from Three Howls. Next we drove to Copperworks where we got an in depth tour from one of the owners of their beautiful still. We tried four different liquors they make. Pours were pretty generous. Next up we went to another distillery that was also very nice and pleasant and last up was three howls that was awesome. Everyone we met was clearly really passionate about their craft and excited to have us come through. Our tour guide Jason told us a lot about the history and process of washington's distilleries. Id definitely go back on this tour or another with this group.

My friend and bought the Groupon for this tour for $39 per person. It advertised a tour of three…read morelocal distilleries, learning about the history of distilling and the process behind the creation of various spirits, and two tastings of vodka, gin, whiskey, or other drinks at each distillery. The tour guide was nice and very accommodating and the distilleries were fun and informative. However, the three distilleries we visited on our tour were each under one year old. So, we didn't get to try any whiskey because whiskey takes 2 years to distill. We tasted one gin at one distillery and the rest were vodka and vodka variations. I was disappointed because I was looking forward to learning about and tasting all three spirits. To make matters worse, two guys inquired about and then joined our tour at the first distillery. My friend watched them the whole time and said they didn't pay. That is not fair for everyone who did pay. I feel like we overpaid, even with the Groupon discount. We got a nice shot glass and t-shirt at the end of the tour, but I don't want to advertise for them. I suggest you forget the tour and visit the distilleries on your own. If you don't have a designated driver, just walk or take public transportation. The samples are pretty small anyway.

I did not know that he also kayaks with us on the side because one may easily get lost, especially with the stronger currents off to the opposite end from where you exit from the dock to then start the kayaking journey. Remember to look at the weather before you make a booking. They offer vests here in case you tip over...u will not with Blake there unless you really make an effort to do so. The vests have a place to put your phone in that you can easily unzip so you can take out your phone for pictures. They even provide shades for you, if you did not bring any...like I forgot! Blake does a good job with orienting you to the kayak boat so that you can confidently function in and navigate with it. Would recommend this experience for anyone new to the state so that they can appreciate the beauty of Washington nature and see where else to explore on their off-days

I love her enthusiasm, knowledge, historical facts, and information she shared with us regarding Pike Place Market and its vendors. The curated food samples around the market were well-organized, generously portioned, and delicious. I highly recommend this tour for both locals and tourists alike. I am a local Seattleite. I did this tour for the first time over 10 years ago and was pleased that it wasn't exactly the same places we stopped at before. Plus, it reminded me to go back and support businesses that I had forgotten about and to continue exploring the market and to come back often because this place is truly a gem and worthy of our support for being 100% local and run by small business owners. Today was a perfect afternoon well spent :-)

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!!!*

We did a wine tour including a stop at Snoqualmie Falls. Joe scheduled us for four wineries but since we were a little tipsy after the third tasting room we decided to forego the last winery and our chauffeur Michael was more than gracious about granting our request. Michael was great - he was super sweet, accommodating, drove nicely, and told us about the history of places as we drove by. I also really appreciated that he always told us where he'd be and that he was just a phone call away if/when we needed him. His professionalism was comforting. I will be recommending Seattle Wine Tours to everyone I know going there (if they drink wine)! :O)

Not only did we get to sample many different yummy "bites" within the market, we also got to learn about the rich history and culture of how the market came about. It gave me such a deeper respect for this place. Booking this tour is fairly easy to do online. On the day of you are to meet at the designated location to meet your guide. If there are any issues you can contact the owner Mark directly and they have a 100% money back if you're not satisfied. If this isn't good customer service then I don't know what is. Our guide for the day was Chip. Chip was friendly, funny, and engaging. You can tell he loves his job and is proud to share his knowledge about the market.He remembered all of our names and I felt this made it seem so much more personal than a tour. If there is a large group you will be provided audio headsets but since we were only a group of 6 that day we were able to hear him just fine without them. You can tell there has been a lot of thought put into this tour and I applaud the company for such a wonderful job well done. Not only were the bites we got to sample so delicious, they were a nice variety ranging from the the famous Pike Place Chowder to Elleno's Greek Yogurt to Texas BBQ to Mexican tacos to Paris-inspired crepes to fresh local and seasonal fruits, just to name a few. And let's talk about the servings. They feed a generous amount so that by the end of the tour we were actually full. Totally bang for your buck! This is a great activity for tourists and locals alike to spend an afternoon at the market. A nice plus is if you decide to come back and visit any of the merchants after the tour, you will receive a discount. If you're reading this then do not wait any longer! Go reserve a tour now!
