Overview

Center of Seattle’s LGBTQ community for years, "the hill" is vibrant, inclusive and delights with small independent shops, booming nightlife and attitude. We will learn about it's history and visit one of Seattle’s oldest parks with great views of the Space Needle. Along the way, we will check out a few of Seattle’s best book stores, some great record shops, sample locally made ice cream and confections, enjoy the best espresso in the city (in my opinion!) and see some of the most famous bars and live music venues in the city. This is a great way to plan your weekend agenda while in town if nightlife is your thing. These are the places I take my friends and family when they visit, I'd like to share them with you.

With a max of 3 people, this is a personal "best of Seattle" tour that explores the places most visitors never see. Come explore with a 30 year local! For a private version of this tour (1 to 4 people) please call/text

    excellent excellent tour! Lynn is fantastic guide and this tour was amazing. Thank God I happened to find this tour. Lynn is history major and knows a lot about the history of Capitol Hill and all the stories about the buildings, stores, pretty houses and all other events in this area. I learned a lot about the real culture of people in Capitol Hills~! I just made reservation for Lynn's another tour in Georgetown and Alki beach. I am excited to have another great tour tomorrow. I wish more people (including many Koreans) also come and join this tour to know better about the towns.

    Lynn was a fantastic guide! A true people person, she was easy to talk to, and she has a natural curiosity and an amazing ability to retain information. This means she has her practiced information to share on the tour, but she can also pivot and respond to questions and anecdotes with bonus stories, details, and recommendations that really enrich the experience. She is a great listener and allowed me to banter a bit and share some of my stories, too! We had an amazing time and learned a lot about Capitol Hill. I particularly enjoyed the espresso at the beginning, trying to dance, discovering secret hidden places, and truly appreciating the differences between thoughtless and thoughtful renovation. Thank you for a wonderful time, Lynn!

    The tour and Lynn (the owner) were great! It was like visiting an old friend who knew a lot about the city. We saw a lot of things we would have never found on our own. She knew a lot of history about the Capitol Hill neighborhood and experienced its many changes. Very down to earth. Coffee and water were a nice touch as well as the narwhal balls at The Unicorn. Would definitely book a tour with her again! Fun and relaxing experience.
