Pike Place Market Scandalous History Tour

Overview

Pike Place Market has had a long and scandalous history that includes brothels, coffee shops, Chief Seattle, and mischievous ghosts. Come join me to hear the market's stories, and explore the market.

Pike Place Market is the heart of Seattle. The market is nine acres packed with local farmers, artists, wineries, buskers, specialty businesses and fish being thrown. I have extensive experience being a market tour guide and I am a retired chef. My goal is to get my guests familiar with the market layout, vendors, foods and history.

This was such a fun way to see the Market. Carolyn is your friend from the minute you meet her. You can tell she loves the stories, history and her community. I learned so much and now feel like a bit of an insider now as I walk through the market.

Thoroughly enjoyable tour. Carolyn was really knowledgeable and super interesting. She has lots of local knowledge and weird and wonderful facts. I was on my own and she was very friendly and warm. Would definitely recommend.
