5.00If you've never been to Pike Place Market before, it can be overwhelming. However, taking this food tour, led by our great guide Woody, we were able to see various parts of Pike Place Market, learn the history, and more importantly, enjoy the many different foods and cuisines that Pike Place Market has to offer. I would highly recommend taking this tour to anyone who likes good food, go for a nice walk, and learn some new things!
Great food tour

Fast Talking Overwhelming Food Tour

3.00Depends on who your guide is as to the quality and enjoyment of your tour. Our guide was apparently paid-by-the-word because his delivery was so incredibly fast and full of unnecessary information it became overwhelming. I requested he talk slower which lasted 5 mins. His presentation for a food tour included the 1906 San Fransisco earthquake and how it related to the paving bricks on the street!?! He was very forward in promoting every food and non-food vendor we passed pressing us to return and purchase things. The truffle sampling was more of a sales pitch than a sampling. All of the samplings were between small and tiny. I would recommend this tour guide dispense with the overwhelming information and reduce his talk to just the history of the market itself, and talk slower.
