🚶8 mapped stops
From the Great Wheel on Pier 57 to the original Starbucks on Pike Place — 1.6 miles along Seattle's rebuilt waterfront. Fish throwers launch salmon 15 feet over the counter, the Gum Wall was cleaned of 2,350 pounds in 2015 and re-covered within weeks, and the sea lions arrived uninvited after the 1989 earthquake.
이 투어의 정차 지점 (8)
- 1 Seattle Great Wheel Start at Pier 57. The 175-foot Ferris wheel opened in 2012. On clear days, you can see Mt. Rainier, the Olympics, and the Cascades from the top.
- 2 Waterfront Park (Pier 62) The Alaskan Way Viaduct that blocked this view for 66 years was demolished in 2019. The waterfront you see is a $700M rebuild still in progress.
- 3 Seattle Aquarium The giant Pacific octopus here can change color, texture, and shape in milliseconds. They're also notorious escape artists.
- 4 Pike Place MarketFront The 2017 expansion added vendors and this view deck. Look down — the elevated walkway is 30 feet above Western Avenue.
- 5 Pike Place Market Main Arcade Founded 1907 to cut out middlemen — farmers sold directly to customers. It's the oldest continuously operated farmers' market in the US.
- 6 Pike Place Fish Market The fish throwers. They've been doing this since the 1930s. Order a salmon and they'll launch it 15 feet over the counter.
- 7 The Gum Wall An alley wall covered in chewed gum since 1993. They cleaned it in 2015 (removed 2,350 pounds of gum). It was completely re-covered within weeks.
- 8 Original Starbucks (1912 Pike Place) End point. Opened 1971. Originally sold only beans and equipment, no drinks. The logo was a topless mermaid. The line outside is usually 30+ minutes. Worth seeing, not worth the wait.
