Poor experience
I come from a Spanish-speaking country and signed up for the tour in English, but it was conducted almost entirely in Mandarin Chinese; the people involved didn't speak English. The guide seemed lost and didn't know where he was taking us—he didn't even know the location of Amazon Headquarters, which is part of the tour. He also claimed I hadn't paid for the tour, which is impossible, as Viator wouldn't issue a ticket without payment. It was a very bad experience. On top of that, he was falling asleep while driving.

HORRIBLE NIGHTMARE!!!
My wife and I were the only English speaking people in the nightmare tour. The tour guide forgot that we where there so all we had to listen was Chinese

A Day In Seattle
Driver was nice. Coach was clean, comfortable. 7 people went on the tour. The Tour discription said 4 stops but I think we only had 3. The Amazon Village (spheres), Space Needle/Food Court and Pike Place. It was a nice tour. I would recommend it.

Looking from above
Pikes market is huge so map it out before go on this tour because you won’t have time to see it all. This tours should allow at least 4 hours. The Amazon stop was not needed I would have liked to spend more time at the space needle and Pike Market.

Seattle day trip
The pick up location hasn't got a second option. But the driver was very helpful. The tour was running smoothly and quite enjoyable.
