I recently took part in the taste of Pikes Place market and was very disappointed. In the event description it said that a local guide, bottled water, food tasting and lunch would be included. The first 3 were included but not the last. I feel that paying over 200 for four people was overpriced based on what was offered. I was expecting to leave the tour feeling full and well feed since I was paying over 50 per person. In the event write up it states You'll taste Seattle's favorite dessert, a super flavorful India samosa, North America's only Crumpet Shop, authentic Mexican street tacos, the best New England style Clam Chowder in America, Seattle's finest smoked salmon, black and white truffle oils and a signature salmon burger slider from Seattle super chef Tom Douglas. During the tour we failed to visit the crumpet shop or eat Mexican tacos. On a side note the smoked salmon was put in a plastic bag and passed around between 9 people. I can't believe that the tour guide expected 9 people to all place their hand in the same bag to tear off a piece of fish!! After the tour had concluded my party and I quickly found the nearest food and ate lunch since we were all starving. I dont want to sound negative but I truly feel as if the tour guild took our money and kept it for himself instead of delivering what the tour stated. This was my first time using Viator to plan a trip and cannot stress enough how disappointed I was in it.
This was a really fun tour and our guide was funny and knowledgable as he shared tales of the city. I look forward to taking this tour again next time we visit Seattle!
Leslie was great, friendly and fun. We were so glad we went on the tour. Discovered some food that we normally don't eat. The best part was no waiting in line to taste the food. Leslie pre-ordered them for us. Will recommend the tour to all. Thank you.
