I’ve gone on this tour many times. I’ve done every “type” of tour they offer and they’re all amazing. A full blown guided tour and history lesson about Seattle in one go and you get to see places that aren’t open to the public. HIGHLY recommended.

A one of a kind experience specific to here. You can go by car or on foot. From downtown Seattle, the shortest trip is Bainbridge and the longer trip is Bremerton. Just getting on the ferry to either destination, getting lunch and coming back is very much worth it.
