We beginnen ons avontuur langs het Can-Can Cabaret en leren over de geschiedenis en cultuur van de markten voordat we afdalen naar het hoofdgedeelte.
Piroshky Piroshky is één van de meer populaire plekken in de Markt en je kunt de operatie bekijken door het raam in de bakkerij. Spannend als je getuige bent van het deskundige team dat een breed assortiment Piroshky creëert. Monsters verstrekt zoals gedicteerd door de lijn.
Honest Biscuits ligt aan de schilderachtige westkant van de Markt. Ik zal de artiesten en de craftline uitleggen en je de werkelijke locatie van de eerste Starbucks laten zien voordat ze onderweg verhuisden. Geniet van het uitzicht op Elliot Bay terwijl u pluizige handgemaakte koekjes eet met Beechers-kaas erin gebakken. Samples maken deel uit van de tour.
We stoppen bij de eerste van de 4 visboeren op de Markt. City Fish werd geopend in 1917. Geniet van gratis monsters en VIP-kortingen van enkele van de beste elzenhout gerookte zalm op aarde.
De O-Mart stop! The Oriental Mart won in 2020 de James Beard award en heeft een ongelooflijke Filipijnse keuken. Ontmoet de legendarische Ate Lei bij deze exclusieve VIP-stop van Tasty Tours. Sample is onderdeel van de tour
DeLaurenti Italian Grocery is gevestigd in het Economy Market gebouw vlakbij de oorspronkelijke ingang van de Markt. Ze openden in 1946 en je proeft de beste pizza in de staat Washington aan de geweldige lunchbalie. Deze stop is exclusief voor Tasty Tours en de sample maakt deel uit van de tour.
Ja we gaan langs de wereldberoemde Pike Place Fish Co waar ze de vis gooien! Ik zal de hele geschiedenis en overlevering van deze attractie uitleggen terwijl we genieten van gratis gedroogde groenten en fruit monsters bij Simply Seattle.
Don en Joes is al 55 jaar de marktslager. Een vlees- en kaasparcours mix to go maakt deel uit van de tour als we langs gaan.
Geheime tuin plek. De geheime tuin is een geweldige plek voor de lunch met openbare zitplaatsen en een prachtig uitzicht. Ik zal de geschiedenis van de markt uitleggen en de rollen die de PDA, Market Foundation, de Market Commons en het Historic District spelen om het een van de prachtige 7 openbare markten ter wereld en een echt unieke gemeenschap te maken.
Theeën van overal zijn te vinden op MarketSpice.
Bezoek de langstlopende goochelwinkel in het noordwesten van de Stille Oceaan en de op 6 na oudste van de VS terwijl we ons wagen waar geen andere tour naar beneden gaat in het Fairley Building met 7 verdiepingen. Misschien zien we een paar trucjes!
We passeren Golden Age 's Werelds oudste stripwinkel en waar Sonic John in 1987 begon te werken in de Market
We vervolgen onze reis door de Lower Market Levels en passeren de verbazingwekkende Holy Cow records. Altijd bruist het van de vinyl liefhebbers als we onze weg terug naar het hoofdniveau maken.
The Athenian heeft het beste happy hour uitzicht op de markt en ook de filmlocatie voor "Sleepless in Seattle" met Rob Reiner en Tom Hanks in de hoofdrollen. Je ziet de lunchbalie waar de scène plaatsvond. Prachtige Market Family hangplek.
We eindigen de tour met een dessert bij Chukar Cherries bij de Athenian en de brug naar parking. Diverse chocolade bedekte gedroogde kersen en noten sample zijn onderdeel van de tour. Vanaf deze centrale plek kun je gemakkelijk verder op je Seattle avontuur. Ik zal mistig-eyed worden en vaarwel zwaaien als we met jullie vertrekken vol eten, geschiedenis en leuke ervaringen!

My little sister and I decided to take a little trip to Seattle, we live in Portland so it is fairly close by. We were looking forward to the food tour the whole trip. Upon arrival the tour guide realized we were missing two people so he called them and I am not kidding, on that phone call is just yelling the address we were at while the people on the other line were explaining that they had just gotten confused about the meetup spot (the emails were all over the place to be honest so I don't blame them). From there the guide talked trash about them until they came so already I felt uncomfortable and then he asked where everyone was from and he made fun of the fact that me and my little sister were from Portland cause it is "so close" and there is "no point". He spent the rest of the tour making jokes about Portland and us, I talked to other people on my food tour who said that the guide made them uncomfortable, several people including myself asked each other if he had a drink or something cause he was weird. At some point, two people dipped out of the tour because of him (the people he talked on the phone with). Overall, it just was more stressful than fun and he kept commenting on how little people ate or if someone didn't want to try something. I thought it was weird and generally just uncomfortable, definitely wouldn't book with this company again because he said he was the only tour guide. Last thing I will say is that he also kept saying he hoped that the people who left wouldn't leave him a bad review, he knew it was a bad tour.
You have got to be kidding me on this. I went way out of my way to show you a fun tour. Absolutely ridiculous inaccurate review. The people who showed up late and lost where drunk out of their minds. What you saw where two intoxicated guests a situation I have never had to deal with before.. Thats why they left, thankfully. I never said one thing about Portland either other than have a safe trip back come on with that stuff. Even got you a magic trick for free. All the other guests on this same tour gave me 5 stars for dealing with the drunkards. My tours are never bad. Good luck out there.
The actual tour was helpful in learning about the market and how to maneuver the chaos. I rated this tour an overall 3 because of the rudeness and lack of compassion of John the owner and tour guide. When I informed him that my husband had stepped away to use the restroom, he went ballistic. He was more concerned about his next tour than the individuals he was currently directing. He was rude in his comments and only cared about moving on instead of waiting for my husband’s return. I apologized to the other tour participants as my husband has some health issues. They were understanding but John was NOT. He was a total jerk! Other participants agreed that his demeanor and comments were rude, unnecessary and lacked concern and compassion. I told him so and he could have cared less. I would recommend going with a different tour guide for a better experience. Cba
Hi folks - I stop at the bathrooms right off the bat and did so on this tour. I ask every ten minutes if anyone needs anything from water to restrooms - The Market is 9 acres and 30 buildings, a complete ancient maze - and on Saturdays upwards of 20 thousand people are crammed into it. The bathroom signs are vague and bathrooms often have lines. I know where the easy bathrooms are if you ask me on the tour. However if you just vanish without telling me and get lost in the massive crowd over and over again it is unfair to the other 10 guests that have to wait to keep waiting while I find lost ones. Being direct about trying to find someone in a crowd is hardly being rude. The tour is two hours and I have premade samples and a timed route. Good luck.
Jon was so informative and funny.We would never would have known about the intracaticies of the many levels of Pike Market. The food samples were great.
Thank you for taking my tour I had a great time showing you around the neighborhood. I am glad to hear you got a lot of information. I have been here many years and I always enjoy sharing my knowledge - Please get your discounts and Safe travels.
John was amazing and knowledgeable. He knew so many people and facts about the market and area which made it incredibly enjoyable. Many random samples on top of the 'scheduled' stops made our group of 4 feel full without being uncomfortable. His personality and stories were worth it alone, but the food pushed it over to an incredible experience. Sonic John really lived up to his name!
I am so happy that you enjoyed the tour. I had a blast showing you around the Market. I can get samples from a variety of places because of my connections so I am thrilled that you enjoyed it. Thank you for supporting small businesses and for visiting the Pike Place Market. Come back anytime. Safe travels. Sonic John
You learn about the layout of Pike's Market. The food samples are minimum and basic, a pizza slice, one biscuit and a taste of a hot dog. All were tasty but not unique. No drinks of any sort although there were numerous fruit and juice places.
Its "Pike" place not "Pike's" Not sure what food you think is going to be offered in a 9 acre 119 year old blue color working-class 30 building public Market outside of the Piroshky, smoked salmon, fruit, James Beard award winning Filipino food, chowder, pizza, Seattle dog, etc that you did get. And yes all are Tasty.
We enjoyed learning about the history of the market and the samples from various businesses. It would have made it even better had we followed a more logical path as it was difficult to find places we wanted to return to after the tour.
I have taken an extremely precise and logical parh for the past 10 years. The Market is 9 acres and 119 years old. I show my guests the route right at the start of the tour in front of a giant map of the Market. During the tour I give you a portable map and other tips on how to navigate the 30 buildings. At the end of the tour I show you the entire route we just completed. I give all my guests plenty of tools to navigate the Market. Its up to you to remember where you want to go maybe take a picture or ask me something specific you wanted to see? Glad you liked the history.
Our tour guide Sonic John was very passionate and knowledgeable about the market. He did a great job navigating a couple of tricky guests on our tour, and his decades of love for the market and its community shone throughout our experience. He was great!
Thank you so much for exploring the Market with me. I had a great time guiding you through the crowded maze. Thank you for supporting small business! Safe travels. Sonic John
I love going to the pike , but it cracks me up every time all these private purveyors of artisanal and specialty items and I went on a very unbusy day... Guess where the line was at Starbucks Coffee.In fact, they cattle Guarded everyone by lining people up in this steel barrier because the actual store is so small.You can't fit a line in it.. And people were doing it.. I'm amazed at what people will pay for overpriced , s*it. The people lined up actually looked like cattle going to slaughter... Or in this case sheep.
Great tour, tour guide was great and very informative. You can tell he knows the history very well. The group was great except for the couple that we had to wait for that arrived late and intoxicated (Benjamin couple) other than that it was a great time.
Thank you so much for taking my tour. Yes that couple was taking their vacation to the extreme for sure haha. I appreciate your patience. I also had a great time showing you around the Market. I give you five stars back! - Safe travels! Sonic John
Great way to see, taste and feel the public market. John was great and quite a fun character! Highly recommend!
I really appreciate the nice words. Im so happy you enjoyed the tour. I had a fabulous time myself guiding you through the Market. Safe travels. Sonic John
