Mark was our guide on the early tour. We got lucky as only had 4 of us in the tour due to late tourist season (October 4-6). Mark presented wonderful history information about Pikes Market and also about himself, which made it more comfortable all around. We asked him questions and he got us in front for the fish throwing, which was fun! I highly recommend this company and VIP tour time. This is actually my second tour from nearly 2 years ago and it was all different vendor so I've been able to example even more! My friend that I brought with me loved it as well and we had our new favorites- smoked salmon. Yum!

Hi JillL1877, We're so glad you came to visit us again and got to have a whole new, wonderful experience with Mark! Mark has been with us a long time and we are so grateful to have him on the team. He is a natural and bringing the Market's History to life and making his guests feel welcomed. It's exciting to hear that he was able to have you front and center for the famous fish throwing by our beloved Pike Place Fish Market, that is always such a treat! Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review, we hope we can host you again soon!

Booked this tour to take place after our week long Alaskan cruise...that was my one mistake. I should have booked it before I left so that We had a lay of the land upon our return! We met up early and our small group of twelve was led by Katya; her enthusiasm and passion for the market and the foods available are unparalleled. She is a master at delivery and she engaged every member of the group. We nibbled on delightful smoked salmon, heavenly cheese biscuits and fantastic salmon burgers, to name a few. This experience is fun for couples, families and singles. Don't make the same mistake I did...book it for when you first arrive. Enjoy and eat up!
