What you’ll do

You’ll feel like you’re enjoying the city with a friend as you join one of our local Seattle hosts to spot some of Seattle’s hotspots. They're looking forward to sharing a side of the city that speaks to you, one that they know and love! Based on your vibe, budget, and preferences (it's your day to make after all), discover city secrets and well-known anecdotes all through a local lens.

You could stroll through Pike Place Market and visit Central Public Library, or head to a more local neighborhood like Fremont. Immerse yourself in the city’s culture and blend in with the locals as you sip on your cup of coffee while you walk the streets (a must - it may even be illegal not to be holding a coffee at all times in Seattle).

Enjoy a meal in the Chinatown-International district or try the city’s famous clam chowder (your host knows just the spot), as they show you to places only a local would know. All of that, in 8 hours? What a day!

Reviews

    Riccardo was nothing less than amazing! Riccardo’s knowledge of Seattle, Seattle suburbs, popular sites(and the right time to visit), and the less popular sites that are stunning and eye-catching is remarkable. He’s also definitely your guy if you want to know where to find the best authentic Italian cuisine (and trust me, you will want to)! Riccardo has spectacular time management skills to make sure you see as much as possible given the time. Do yourself a favor, and request Riccardo- you won’t be disappointed; you will learn so much!

    Our five hour trip was interesting and informative. We came away from it feeling that we had seen the essence of Kyoto and in a very short time had a much better understanding of this lovely city. Our guide, Alvin, was excellent.

    Thanks to my local guide, Ack I felt safe in this bustling metropolis that can be intimidating for those who don’t speak or understand Japanese. Ack expertly navigated the city and its various public transportation systems with ease. He made sure I got to see everything on my list.

    We had a lovely time with Tiana visiting Kyoto. She was really knowledgeable and was great catching the interest of the kids with many details about shrines, temples and also life in Japan in general. It was really a great guided tour.
