How your day could unfold
A flexible, unscripted experience designed entirely around your interests. Your host will adapt the day based on what excites you mostWhat you’ll do
You’re certainly going to need a few more half-days to enjoy all that this dynamic city has in store. But one of our local Seattle hosts to show you the ropes, you won’t have to worry about wasting time figuring out what to do in the city.
You could visit well-known attractions like Chihuly Garden and Glass and the Space Needle, or maybe you’d prefer something more off-beat.
Just let us know what you’re interested in, and we’ll do our best to make it happen. Just don’t forget to make a mandatory coffee stop - your host will show you to where you’ll be able to sample an unforgettable cup or two, at a spot that suits your vibe exactly.
Rumor has it that there’s a coffee shop for every 400 people here (rather a lot), so we know there’s one out there that’s just right for you.
Stroll the inner city or venture off into the neighborhoods that make up Seattle’s dynamic atmosphere, hearing from your host what else you can get up to in the city. You’ll feel like a local in no time, provided you’ve always got that coffee in hand!

Vladimir was amazing! He was informative and has a very kind nature about him. Note: There is no way this is a walking tour, so we went by car. This means he relies heavily on tips for this to be worth his while... And trust me, you'll love it! Thank you so much for showing me the beautiful city of Seattle! Respond to review

We took the private downtown tour with Kalina on Aug 6. Kalina was outstanding! Her knowledge was so impressive as was her kind demeanor. We started with a breakfast at Lowell's, walked around the city, hearing all about the history of Seattle. She was mindful of our time and kept to a leisurely schedule. When we would mention an interest of ours, she quickly changed her plans and accommodated us. Afterwards, she took the time to send us pictures of our wonderful morning. I highly recommend this tour and especially recommend Kalina
