Jerry is the most amazing tour guide and person that I had the pleasure of meeting today!!! Please take this tour --it was one of the best experiences that I have had in my life! Jerry is super knowledgeable and genuinely cares about people and his city! This was such a memorable experience for me and my daughter. I highly recommend!!

What a great tour of the Public Market. Our guide was Nola Wyse and she was amazing. Nola is both knowledgeable of Seattle and the Market. The locations on our tour were great and the food was terrific. I highly recommend experiencing Public Market with a tour. There is plenty of time to visit other vendors after your tour or to go back for a meal at one of the places on the tour.

They are finally re-opened and we were excited since we bought a Groupon over 1 year ago! It was pretty cool because not only did they honor our Groupon, they accommodate us for a non- regular time. We did the pike place tour and we were the only 2 people. We got there a little early but was welcomed by our excited guide, Marcia. We went through 11 places on our tour to sample food around pike place along with learning some interesting facts about the location. The samples were good and the experience was pretty fun. Marcia did a really good job telling us things about pike place that we never knew. It was also cool to see how she knows everyone and even had them interact with us along the way allowing them to tell us their stories. My only critique: I wish we had gone in reverse order because it would have been nice to end with desserts rather than start with them. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Tour group with our amazing tour guide Jerry!!

Really good character, enthusiastic and very knowledgeable. Always looking for something new to do at every visit to new places!! Definitely recommend!!

I wanted a food/history tour so I took a chance on a Groupon of Show me Seattle. Our tour guide Bob was sooo great. He really knows his stuff on all things Seattle. He came prepared with hand sanitizer, napkins and wet wipes! It was a 2 hour tour but it didn't even feel like it since Bob made the tour fun! The samples were great as well. I ate breakfast before so the samples filled me up and I didn't have to eat lunch. It is a walking tour so bring your walking shoes and comfortable attire. Other than that I really enjoyed it! Thank you Show Me Seattle and Bob! You also get a 10% discount to use at the places you sample.

What a fabulous way to see Seattle !!! Our tour guide James Grindle did an amazing job showing us the city, explaining the deep history of Seattle, historic buildings, fun facts, pointing out names of trees, flowers, types of salmon & so much more on our 3 hour sightseeing tour. I travel a lot & have taken many tours & can honestly say, this was my favorite experience due to our tour guide, the history I learned & things that I saw. I fell in love with Seattle & what it has to offer. Thank James for your passion & amazing knowledge of the city.

Reopening after a long forced hiatus from Covid, Bill and I felt as though Lynn,…read morethe owner operator of Under The Radar Tours had so much to share and we were the benefactors of her enthusiasm and information. My back is always an issue so a long walking tour was out of the question but Lynn took us through beautiful historical districts, Capitol Hill, the site of the riots, Volunteer Park, a local gayberhood and a terrific shop called Retail Therapy and it was. We felt like Lynn could have been a long lost cousin who wanted to share her love for her city with us. We will be back to catch the rest of the Seattle story. Thank you Lynn a hundred times over.

REVIEW OF OUR SEATTLE LOCKS, GASWORKS PARK & HOUSEBOATS TOUR--ONE OF THE SEATTLE UNDER THE RADAR…read moreTOURS My wife and I visited Seattle for the first time in April 2022. As part of our visit, we booked a tour titled "The Locks, Gasworks Park and Houseboats Tour." The tour is one of "The Seattle Under the Radar Tours" and was billed as a chance to see Seattle "through the eyes of a local." For us, that "local" was Tour Guide Lynn Curtis, who (if I remember correctly) said she had lived in Seattle for 11 years. Our tour with Lynn took place on the afternoon of Friday, April 22nd. It was a beautiful, sunny day and perfect for a tour of Seattle. Twenty-four hours before the tour, Lynn emailed us to confirm we knew where to meet, what to expect on the day of the tour and to answer any pre-tour questions. That was much appreciated and helped assure us we we're working with a professional. The tour rendezvous point was in front of a bakery within walking distance from the Seattle waterfront and marketplace district where we parked our car. Lynn arrived a little early and after introducing herself, invited us to accompany her into the bakery for a complimentary pastry and beverage. Afterwards, Lynn directed us to her personal vehicle--a spacious and clean SUV parked just outside the bakery. To our pleasant surprise, we learned we were her only guests for this tour. Our more than three-hour private tour began with a drive to the Seattle Ballard Locks to see and learn how the locks work to permit the movement of small and large boats. The locks are located at the west end of Salmon Bay, in Seattle Washington's Lake Washington Ship Canal, between the neighborhoods of Ballard to the north and Magnolia to the south. On the drive to the locks, Lynn pointed out various points of interest and once there, shared her wealth of knowledge about the locks. A highlight of this stop was seeing the salmon swimming up the salmon ladders and watching the boats enter and leave the locks. Next, it was on to "Gas Works Park." The park sits on the former Seattle Gas Light Company gasification plant. What makes the park so appealing and a must see for tourists like us, is its location: the north shore of Lake Union at the south end of Seattle's Wallingford neighborhood. It offers breathtaking views of Lake Union and the Seattle skyline. A highlight of this part of the tour, was getting there. On the drive over, Lynn once again shared interesting facts and stories about the neighborhoods we passed through, as only a local could do. Another highlight of the tour was a surprise stop at Ivar's Salmon House restaurant. The restaurant specializes in American and Seafood cuisine and is located on the north shore of Lake Union. Lynn said she personally recommends it to her tour guests who love American and Seafood cuisine, but we learned the food is not the only reason it's a tour stop: its stunning Northwest native art, décor and historical photographs, including a full cedar replica of a Northwest Native American longhouse, are the other reasons. We were so impressed with Ivar's, that we came back that evening for dinner. With the exception of a challenge finding nearby parking, it was a wonderful experience. Our final destination was a visit to a secluded Seattle neighborhood where many residents live in beautiful multilevel houseboats--some valued in excess of $1 million--with their own private docks. This neighborhood is not on your typical Seattle tourist's itinerary and would be difficult to find and traverse without a local like Lynn. If you're looking for a Seattle tour that's well worth your money, this is it. We highly recommend it and highly recommend Lynn. She was great. Thank you Lynn!

This tour made me so happy. Kevin and Russ were enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and their passion (and…read morenerdiness) for the public arts was infectious and endearing. I'll never walk over another hatch cover the same again. I'm excited to go home and see what's beneath my feet there. I would highly recommend this off the beaten path tour to anyone and i'll be happy to do it again the next time i'm back in Seattle. Thanks guys!

I am always looking for low cost, less formal ways to learn about places I either live in or visit…read moreand have done many free tours both in Seattle and while traveling. I learned about this tour from a friend and I think it's fairly new. At any rate, interesting tour. Not your typical here's the city and these are some of the landmarks and here are some fun facts. The difference is this tour was focused around the public art that can be seen everyday along the streets and sidewalks, built into the infrastructure, in the form of manhole covers or hatches as they are referred to. The folks conducting the tour included information of the various artistic manhole covers, combining it with first hand information from the artists and discussed the history of the work and how it fits into the identity of Seattle. They also provide information on the history of the city and how Seattle became the city you see as you take the tour. Pretty neat concept exploring aspects of the city that folks often take for granted as they pass by. Another fun fact about this tour is that it evolved out of an art project. I thought that was particularly interesting. Some of the prints, etc are pretty cool and again not what you would typically expect or encounter from one of these free tours. I'd recommend this tour to anybody to who wants to learn more about the history of Seattle, who appreciates public art or art in general and who has a free hour or so on a Saturday morning.

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 :-)

Loved most of the food we tried, but a smoothie or juice drink option would be a nice addition! :) I also wish sharing pronouns was part of the introductions. I realize folks are from all over and might not understand, but you can make it optional! It would have made me feel more comfortable in the group as a non-binary person.
