I am so glad I decided to take the Pike Place food tour. The samples were delicious and the historical info was very interesting. Robert was a great guide!
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 12 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. This is a market tour that includes walking/standing and not a restaurant tour with a variety of food alternatives and sitting opportunities.

Such a great experience, Scott was super knowledgeable and we got to try so much food we wouldn’t ordinarily get to sample
Corey_E
Great food and good information about the market place our guide was great and very helpful with all of our questions

Great way to experience the market. This is a huge market so having a guide providing you info about the places you are walking through, the market itself, and guiding you through the crowds to some of the most popular spots is great. You also get to try way more food than you could by yourself since the places are create small portions from items you’d normally have to get a full serving of if you were by your self. You leave full and also get a lot of discounts at various spots after you have been on the tour.
