Bite-Sized Seattle History & Food by Go West Tours

About this experience

The one and only tour of Seattle you'll ever need - in just 45 minutes.

Explore the city's rich history, stopping by world-famous attractions and many hidden gems. We'll stretch our legs, do food shopping in Pike Place Market - and build uniquely Seattle snacks that showcase local cuisine and history!

Guests love our tour because:
1) It’s intimate. We cap groups at 8 people, so it feels personal, not like you’re being herded around.
2) It’s efficient. You’ll be in and out in 45 minutes.
3) We eat awesome food. You won't stumble across it on your own.
4) Our guides are local. From the best sushi and coffee to where to grab a drink or how to get around, ask us anything. We’re happy to share.

By the end of the tour, you won’t just have seen some beautiful, iconic places, you’ll understand how Seattle’s past shaped the vibrant city it is today. Think of it as the most fun lunch & learn you’ve ever attended.

What We Stand For: Safety, Inclusivity & Adaptability on every tour.

Itinerary and highlights

Puget Sound is Seattle's defining feature. We'll make sure to get a great look at the second-largest estuary in the United States, home to lots of boat traffic and marine life! We'll learn about the very first people to call Puget Sound home and get oriented to the surrounding area.

We spend some quality time in the Market and get to work! We'll food shop at some of our favorite vendors, then build a couple of PNW snacks that showcase local products and the history of the region. Bonus points for creativity! This is one of our guests' favorite parts of the tour.

The corner of Virginia St. and 1st Ave (just a few steps from Pike Place Market) showcases a ton of Seattle history hidden in plain sight. We'll check out a few different buildings on this block that had a monumental impact on Seattle's history (and impacted millions of people far beyond Seattle!)
