| This was our first weekend away from our toddler. We really enjoyed the tour, as we don't get out much and we felt like this was a way for us to experience some of what Belltown had to offer as tourists in our own area. We only live a short 30-40 minutes away, but never get to downtown, and now we know of several great places to take friends from out of town! Tthe amount of walking was perfect and leisurely. Steve was able to tell us about some of the history of that district and also about each of the history of the restaurants and their owners, which we found really interesting! We even lucked out and one of the chefs came out to talk with us about her experience on the nationwide tv show "Top Chef." We definitely recommend this to out-of-towners and also people like us, tourist in our own town! Completely worth the 50 bucks! | ||||||

| Wow! What a fun tour! This tour, as well as the Pike Market tour, were definately highlights of our time in Seattle. Michael was our tour guide. He was so much fun! He was very well informed and a great communicator. The 2 1/2 - 3 hours flew by so fast. The restaurants he took us to were some of his personal favorites and he personally knew the chefs. We sampled the best sushi, tapas, crab cake sliders, gourmet brownies from a special bakery and a to-die-for rabbit, mushroom, chard wonder, made by Ashley, a contestant on the Top Chef TV show. We had a "photo op" with Ashley as well as were just able to visit with her and ask her questions. We had a glass of wine there. We also went to a wine bar and had another glass of wine accompanied with truffle butter popcorn. Michael told us about a lot of the other restaurants we weren't able to go to, in case we wanted to try them another time. The tour is moderate walking but we were able to sit down at most places. Don't miss it! It's well worth the money and the time! Ned & Diane - Cambridge, IA | ||||||

| I didn't realize how much history we would be getting about the market. I never would have been able to sample so many amazing foods if it wasn't for the tour. Heather was very knowledgeable, fun and a great tour guide. I highly recommend taking this tour on your trip to Seattle. | ||||||

Seattle Highlight!

| This tour was definately one of our Seattle highlights! We considered just seeing Pike Market on our own but decided to take the tour instead. This tour was well worth the money. Steve, our guide, was fun and very informative. He gave us just the right amount of history to make it interesting but not enough to make it boring. He took us to places we would have never found or gone to on our own. He took us to Pure Fish, and told us about his favorite fish monger (sp?) there as we ate a big sample of his favorite smoked salmon. We went to the "gum wall" in a back alley where thousands and thousands of of people stuck their already-chewed-gun on brick walls - VERY interesting!!!! :-) We'd have never found that on our own! It was a very fun thing to see. We sampled wonderful gelato, cheese & salami, best-of- the-best cookies, truffle popcorn, the best clam chowder in the world!, the only made- fresh-daily-crumpets (sp?) in the world! as well as enjoyed a wonderful antipasto plate at the Pink Door. I hope I didn't miss anything. The whole tour was great. Like I said, well worth the time and the money. Thank you, Steve! Ned & Diane - Cambridge, IA | ||||||

| Started out at the Tea Tasting - very good and informative. Guide (Steve) was very knowledgable and seemed to have good relations with the many vendors we visited. All the food tastes were delicious, and the antipasto plate at the Pink Door was a perfect finish. Lots of history and local knowledge. Recommend this tour!! | ||||||

| This was a very easy and tasty way to experience a different area of the city. The food was really diverse and very good. Steve did a good job of explaining the history and showing us around. I was surprised of how much this area of Seattle has to offer in great cuisine. | ||||||

| Penny is an awesome tour guide! She was so much fun to listen to and extremely entertaining! We had a blast... She really made this tour for us. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone that is going to Seattle. The places that she took us to sample the food were perfect. You would not know to go to a lot of these places without a guide. It was definitely one of the highlights of our time in Seattle. | ||||||

Sloooooow food movement :-)

| Steve, one of the owning partners, led this tour on a Saturday afternoon. The group consisted of mostly senior citizen tourists and their local Bainbridge friends. We started off essentially on time at Lola (I think) for grilled pita and three tasty dips. Each person had about 2 pita quarters. After that it was a slooooow walk to the next restaurant. It was slow in part because the group had soem slow walkers, and in part because Steve was giving us alot of Belltown history. The Bainbridge locals seemed to enjoy the history. Also slow because we were waiting for one person using the restroom. And we spent alot of time waiting for numerous crosswalk lights to change. I would recommend incorporating the history chat in one/some of the restaurants, especially if the group of walkers is slow. Eventually we made it to Queen's Something where we enjoyed a crabcake slider(crabcakes on buns). Beer/wine/cocktails were available to order. We really lingered here a while. Afterward we headed to a Basque tapas restaurant where each of us tasted one baguette slice topped with chorizo sausage and bitter shaved chocolate. I enjoyed it, but a few folks did not care for it. Steve showed us a neat tapas tradition where you throw a crumpled napkin on the floor if you enjoyed the food. My napkin was on the floor! Next was sushi at Shiro. After refreshing our hands with a hot towel, we tasted two pieces of sushi. One was cooked eel, another was raw tuna. Next stop was an Italian restaurant where one of the Top Chef contestants is an Exec Chef. This place is great. They gave us a glass of wine and a corn chowder to try. Steve says every time he takes a tour here, they serve something different. Next was a stop for a gourmet brownie (sometimes a donut) at Macrina bakery. Followed by final stop at a wine bar where we enjoyed chardonnay and shared bowls of truffled popcorn. The tour finished about half-hour late, which could be problematic for those with a tight schedule. Overall for my taste the tour moved slow and spent too much time on history and potty breaks. My personal interest was in trying lots of new and interesting foods. I would recommend that the tour add more food stops (or more types of food at each stop), and ask guests to potty before the tour or maybe a one designated stop. That same week I also took the Pike's Market Lunch Tour and happened to be the only participant. I preferred the Market tour because there was alot more food crammed into the same amount of time. I would pay $25-$30 for this tour based on the food, not $50. If you have a coupon it is a good deal. Poor Steve just had too many different types of folks to please on this tour! Thanks Steve for putting up with all of us! | ||||||

| I really liked the insiders look at the market, and an expert telling us about all of it. Our guide was great and very knowledgeable. We ended up going back to many of the places we visited and that we passed that were recommended. It was a good way to learn the market. | ||||||

| Our tour guide, Heather, was excellent. She was friendly, very knowledgeable about the market and Seattle, and offered great advice and ideas for the remaining days of our trip. The food on the tour was fantastic - a great sampling of what the market has to offer. We really enjoyed our tour, and would certainly recommend it to others. | ||||||
