With only a few free hours during a trip to Seattle that was mostly dedicated to a friend's wedding, I was too overwhelmed to tackle Pike Place Market on my own. I booked this tour, and it was a perfect decision. I learned much more than I anticipated about the history of the market (and even Seattle more generally), and enjoyed ELEVEN tastings, even though the website only promised eight. To echo the praise that others have heaped on her, Marcia, our guide, led the tour with so much warmth and enthusiasm, I am confident that she could bring sunshine to even the grayest Seattle day. Some of the goodies were so delectable, I woke up early on the morning of my flight so I could stock up before leaving.
