Private transportation between Pike Place Market, the Space Needle, Pioneer Square, the Ballard Locks, and the rest of Seattle’s signature stops. Skip the shared bus, the fixed schedule, and the crowded photo ops. Pick what you want to see. We drive.
Seattle’s main landmarks are spread across a city that’s easy to underestimate on a map. Pike Place to the Space Needle is a 10-minute drive. The Ballard Locks are 20 minutes from downtown. The Fremont Troll, Gas Works Park, and Capitol Hill are all on different sides of the city. Walking it works for one neighborhood — for a full Seattle tour, you need a car.
Private transportation is the simplest answer. Better than a Hop-on Hop-off bus where you wait for the next loop and ride with strangers. Better than ride-share where you’re paying surge pricing four times in an afternoon. Better than driving yourself because Seattle parking near landmarks is brutal and metered, and the one-way streets near Pike Place will take a year off your life.
Six landmark groups that cover Seattle's signature stops. Most groups choose 4 to 6 of these on a half-day tour.

The most-visited stop in Seattle. Home to the original Starbucks, fish-throwing, the gum wall, and craft stalls. Mornings are quieter; midday is intense. Excellent lunch options like Pike Place Chowder or Beecher's.
Two attractions side-by-side. The Space Needle's observation deck and the adjacent Chihuly Garden and Glass exhibit. CityPASS combo tickets save money. Pre-purchase is strongly recommended for weekends. Beautiful at sunset.
Seattle's original downtown with cobblestone streets and Romanesque architecture. Features the Smith Tower and the Klondike Gold Rush park. Bill Speidel's Underground Tour is the signature paid experience here.
The Hiram M. Chittenden Locks connect freshwater Lake Union to the saltwater Puget Sound. Watch boats transition through the locks. Salmon ladder is visible during runs (June–November). Includes botanical gardens onsite.
The 18-foot concrete Troll lurking under the bridge is a must-photo spot. Nearby, Gas Works Park offers some of the best Seattle skyline views from across Lake Union. A perfect, quick 30-minute Fremont neighborhood stop.
Seattle's vibrant cultural and dining hub. Features Volunteer Park, the Asian Art Museum, and the Pike Pine corridor. Best as an evening stop paired with dinner. We can drop you off to walk and pick you up later.
All pricing is for the entire vehicle, not per passenger. Tour duration is door-to-door (pickup to drop-off). Admission tickets to landmarks are paid separately.
