Tips to make the best of your Hop-on Hop-off Seattle tour

• Start early to avoid crowds at major spots like Pike Place Market and the Space Needle. If you’re into museums, try visiting right when it opens.
• The weather can shift unexpectedly – bring a light jacket or sweater, even in summer, especially near the water.
• If time is tight, prioritize Pike Place Market, the Space Needle, and the Museum of Pop Culture. Hop off at those first and then add more attractions if time permits.
• Seattle’s coffee culture is huge! Skip the chain coffee shops and try local brews – don’t forget the original Starbucks at Pike Place Market!
• Be sure to stop by a seafood spot! Pike Place Market’s clam chowder is legendary. Also, grab some freshly baked goods at the famous bakery in the market!
• Make sure to visit Seattle’s waterfront at Pier 66 and take a cruise with FRS Clippers. You’ll see the city from the water and get great photos.
