3 Hour Seattle City Tour

Overview
This tour is like binge watching four episodes of Game of Thrones, minus the dragons. I do have a troll, a Space Needle, waterfall, giant spheres and an UP House just like the movie. You will get your money’s worth, and even see baby Pterodactyl in Spring and early Summer. I ain’t lying.. This tour is both structured & spontaneous, guaranteed to learn and laugh. Yes, you will see the famous sights, but, also you get to see some small areas only locals go..
If you get thirsty, I have complimentary water.

I've been on many tours throughout the U.S., Canada, Asia and Europe and have to say Earl's tour and personality was one of the best if not the best. I highly recommend people who want a great experience and the "nitty gritty" information regarding the city and it's history check out Earl's tour. We will be back and look for Earl!!!

Okay what is it going to cost me for this review, do you have a bad kidney, and I have to give you one of mine. Thanks so much, you and Yolanda were like old friends from the neighborhood which made the tour relaxing and fun. Thanks again.

Earl is a great guide. He loves Seattle, and enthusiastically narrates about the city. We were not only shown the expected tourist sites, but were also taken around the outer neighborhoods to see some hidden gems. Earl is the owner/operator of his tour van, so he makes his guests feel valued.

Ah, you have said something that made me feel successful, making my guest feel valued is ultimately what I am after thank you for articulating that in your review. To be 100% honest, I am not sure I have previously articulated that clear to myself until I read you review, I wanted people to think about the tour once they have returned home and have re-entered their routine and perhaps smile about something they saw on the tour. However, being valued is what I am really after. So thank you earl

My wife and I plus our 17 year old son recently toured seattle with Earl in April of 2019. Despite my son's original reluctance to go on a city tour, we all had a great time and Earl went out of his way to make it a memorable experience. He will graciously take your family photo at spots and the tour didn't feel rushed at all. In fact, Earl asked if any of us had to be back by the scheduled end time so that we could stay out longer! Earl is very knowledgeable about the history of the city and he is quite funny too. My 17 year old laughed and had a great time! If you want to see some of the city highlights in a short period of time, I highly recommend this tour. BTW, Earl picked us up inside the hotel lobby so you don't have to wait outside in the cold or wet weather if its raining which is also a very nice touch. Good job Earl and we look forward to seeing you again on future trips to Seattle.
