My husband and I are locals but wanted to play tourist for the day. We were pleasantly surprised and learned a lot about Pike Place. We tried three different coffees, several different foods and loved all of it. Carolyn was amazing and so knowledgeable! She even gave us some gum to add to the "gum wall." We highly recommend this tour and plan on signing up for another one with Carolyn.

Carolyn was fantastic! She was personable and SUPER knowledgeable about the history of Seattle and the market. The places she selected for us to try from were great. Days later and I’m still dreaming of the smoked salmon and cultured gelato. Definitely recommend booking one of her tours. I will definitely be back for another tour with my girlfriends.

This tour was amazing! Our guide was wonderful and very knowledgeable about the market. I have never been to Seattle, but my husband and mother-in-law are from the area, and they said they even learned something new. It was a memorable experience and I would highly recommend it!!!
