Daily Itinerary
When you arrive in Seattle, you’ll meet your tour manager and begin your tour. You’ll start with a visit to Pike Place Market, Seattle’s beloved public market! Within the nine acre Market historic district is a daily crafts market, which features the quality work of 225 craftspeople, and more than 200 unique owner-operated shops and services. There are also more than 80 restaurants within the Market.
After dinner, you’ll see a performance of the Seattle Symphony.
After breakfast, you’ll participate in an instrumental master class conducted by a professional musician.
Next, you’ll experience Seattle’s Underground Tour, a leisurely, guided walking tour beneath Seattle’s sidewalks and streets. As you roam the subterranean passages that once were the main roadways and first-floor storefronts of old downtown Seattle, guides will regale you with the stories our pioneers didn’t want you to hear. It’s history with a twist!
In the afternoon, you’ll take a 41-second elevator ride up 520 feet to the observation deck of Seattle’s signature building, the Seattle Space Needle, for spectacular views of the city and its surrounding area.
After dinner, you’ll enjoy the view from the Seattle Great Wheel, the largest observation Ferris wheel on the West Coast that extends nearly 40 feet beyond the pier over Elliott Bay.
After breakfast, while visiting the Future of Flight Aviation Center, you’ll take the Boeing Backstage tour where you’ll experience a one-of-a-kind opportunity to view current jets being assembled on the Everett production line before they take to the sky.
In the afternoon, you’ll visit The Troll in Fremont, a mixed media colossal statue. The Troll is located under the north end of the George Washington Memorial Bridge (also known as the Aurora Bridge). It is clutching an actual Volkswagen Beetle, as if it had just swiped it from the roadway above.
After dinner, you will return to your hotel to get ready for your performance at Benaroya Hall.
This evening, you’ll perform at Benaroya Hall, home to the Seattle Symphony.
After breakfast, you’ll visit a museum like no other on earth. The Museum of Pop Culture houses some of the world’s most legendary pop culture artifacts. Test your DJ skills in Sound Lab, take over the spotlight in On Stage, and get the scoop on the world’s most mesmerizing producers of pop culture. Hands-on experiences, iconic artifacts, and award-winning exhibitions featuring luminaries in the fields of music, literature, television, and film make the Museum of Pop Culture a destination unlike any other.
You’ll return to Pike Place Market to have lunch and do some shopping before you begin the trip home.
