Traveler Reviews

This tour was an excellent way to get to know Seattle. Furthermore, Charles did a great job as our tour guide. He has a true passion for Seattle and his tours.

Chuck the Chuckster is an absolute blast ! From the boarding until depart it was a fun , informative, and just a good time . Sheila and I will mark this two hours as one of the Seattle highlights . We seen places and things only a local would know about and more important how to great there . Would recommend do this trip as soon as you get to town it will help you get your bearings. Chuck like how I slipped in that nautical term ? Now you ask him why I would do that ! Bob and Sheila , Milton ,Florida

Chuck was great!! He picked us up, gave us a tour run down, and away we went. Funny, fun, and informative, we learned a lot, saw a lot, and got some fantastic photos to prove it! We lucked out with some crystal clear weather, and at the end he dropped us off at the aquarium to continue our afternoon adventures! I 100% recommend :))

Chuck aka "The Chuckster" was a super eccentric guy! He's definitely full on energy and corny jokes lol We really enjoyed this tour and the experience. I learned a lot! My only regret is that we didn't take the tour the first day of our stay. We could have used some of his helpful tips to save money sooner.

If you only have a little time to explore Seattle,I definitely recommend the Seattle Highlighrs tour. We had the Chuckster and he really is entertaining and knows Seattle inside and out. He picked us up at our hotel and spent every minute making sure we saw Seattle and it’s highlights. It was awesome . Definitely a must do when in Seattle.
