Booked this as a solo trip and it was well paced. Kerry Park in particular stood out. A couple of the transfers ran a little late but nothing that spoiled the trip.

Seattle is stunning and this package covered the essentials well, especially Seattle Aquarium. The hotel could have been a little closer to the center but transport was easy.

Our trip to Seattle was fantastic from start to finish. The hotel was clean and well located, and the guided visit to Seattle Great Wheel was a real highlight. Airport transfers were on time both ways.

Gas Works Park alone was worth the trip, but combined with Argosy Cruises Harbor Tour this itinerary really delivered. Breakfast at the hotel was good every day and the local guide was knowledgeable.
