Seattle Quick Guide

Where To Stay:

• By Pike Place Market. I recommend The State Hotel.

• By Seattle Center. Hotels in this location would be closer to the Space Needle, Chihuly Garden and Glass Museum, Museum of Pop Art and other sites located in the Seattle Center, but is a further distance from Pike Place Market and the waterfront.

What To Do:

• Space Needle

• Seattle Center-Giant arts, sports and recreation plaza

• Seattle Monorail-Connects Downtown and Space Needle

• Chihuly Garden and Glass

• Pike Place Market

• Bill Speidel's Underground Tour

• Nordstrom Flagship Store

• Museum of Pop Culture

• Ferry Trip to Bainbridge Island

• Ferry Trip to Victoria (Day Trip or Overnight)

• Whale Watching Tours

• Pier 57/Seattle Great Wheel

• Olympic Sculpture Park

• Amazon Biospheres

• Road Trip to Mt. Ranier

• Road Trip to Snoqualmie Falls/Cascade Mountain Range

• Road Trip to Eastern Washington Wine Country-Terra Blanca Winery and Estate Vineyard
