Overview

This chef-guided market tour takes a journey through Pacific Northwest culture by tasting Seattle’s best artisan vendors in the famous Pike Place Market. Enjoy diverse tastings at 9 different locations— and food options like chocolate covered cherries, chowder, and much more. All groups are kept to 11 guests to ensure easier navigation of the market, more tastings, and a better platform to ask questions and interact with the group. Leave with a 10% discount card to shop and explore after the tour.

*Note that tours stops may adjust depending on time of year and guide.

This is a walking tour that does require a moderate amount of physical fitness due to distance, small hills, stairs and cobblestone terrain.

We don't recommend this tour for those following a vegan, dairy free or gluten free diet as we can't accommodate at all stops. This is a market tour that includes walking/standing and not a restaurant tour with a variety of food alternatives and sitting opportunities.

Had the tour with Silas. It was a fun experience with some history of Pike Market and businesses, and some samples where you get to cut the line. We tried different kinda of foods ranging from sweet to savory. An FYI, Silas did mention that each tour guide curates their own stops so different tours may have different samples.

The tour guide (Scott) was good (very passionate and knowledgeable), but there were too many sweet foods and not enough savory samples. The chocolate chip cookies were great, as was the clam chowder. It started a little slow too. We did get to sample many different foods, which was fun.
