Step by Step
By taking this City Sightseeing bus tour of Seattle you can explore one of the most beautiful and modern cities in the United States, taking in a wealth of must-see sights and monuments.
There are a total of four ticket options: one-day, one-day premium, two-day and two-day premium. The single tickets include the hop-on hop-off bus tour, valid for 24 or 48 hours from the first use.
When using the premium tickets, you will have the opportunity to choose between three experience modes. The first is the Must-See Seattle, which will take you on a bus tour with strategic stops located throughout the city centre to visit its most iconic sites and have easy access to the transfer, passing through must-see destinations, including:
- Space Needle: The Space Needle is perhaps Seattle's most iconic symbol. A 184-metre-high tower that, when you climb to the top, offers one of the most incredible panoramic views.
- Pike Place Market: located on Elliott Bay, this historic market is home to a myriad of food and artisan products that locals consume in the tradition of the locals.
- Historic Chinatown Gateway: this beautiful gateway is the entrance to Chinatown's International District, the neighbourhood that serves as the epicentre of the area's Asian-American community.
- Pioneer Square: Seattle' s oldest and most historic neighbourhood, where you will find the city's cultural roots, bars, restaurants and a quirky underground walkway.
The second option is the Scenic Seattle Panoramic Tour, which you will be accompanied by a private guide, who will take you to the right spots to enjoy the best views:
- Kerry Park: the main attraction of this park is the observation deck, which will give you probably the best views of Seattle and Mount Rainier.
- Gas Works Park: Seattle's former coal gasification plant is now a pleasant and very curious public park of about eight hectares.
- Ballard Locks: this complex of locks located on the Lake Washington navigation channel are a sight to see, along with the Carl S. English Jr. Botanical Gardens .
The third tour you can choose to enjoy in Seattle is the self-guided walking tour of the Pioneer Square neighbourhood. All you need to do is download the mobile app on your phone and guide yourself through the destinations listed on it to learn more about the culture and history of the city.
