Seattle Art and History Neighborhood Tour

This tour highlights a neighborhood filled with art and historic architecture most travelers miss when they visit, and it's a very unique slice of old Seattle that still survives. It's a time machine! After we explore Georgetown, we will visit Alki Beach, a local favorite with great people watching, stunning views of Elliott Bay, Bainbridge Island and the Olympic Mountains. We may even spot a sea lion, a harbor porpoise, an eagle or an Orca on Alki, you never know. 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 4 people, this is a very personal "best of Seattle" tour that explores the places most visitors never see. Come explore with a 30 year local!
