Earl was prompt, kept in touch before the tour and was very informative. He is such a gentleman, considerate of his group and knows Seattle well. The three of us traveling together all would recommend him and his tour.

This is the best tour ever!! Even if I was the only one that day, Earl gave me the big experience of Seattle. He knows many things about the city, he is funny, patient, wants to make sure that you are enjoying the tour. I'm French and he took time to be sure that I can understand, was speaking slowly so I can understand everything. Don't hesitate, you won't regret it!
