5.00Bob was amazing. My daughter is dairy free and he made sure that every stop had something for her. Enough food that you can skip breakfast beforehand. Bob makes the tour fun as he’s so passionate about telling us about the history of the market. Uses photos from the past and present to make it come alive.
Interesting tour

5.00Pike Place Market is truly a special place. We were fortunate enough to have Chip Wood as our guide and he’s so knowledgeable and enthusiastic of the whole space. We had a lot of “oooo” and “ahhh” moments, and every bite of food was exceptional. What I appreciate the most is that Pike Place businesses are all family-owned and operated, and their quality standards ensure that everything we buy is homemade/hand-crafted. Thanks, Chip, for a very memorable experience! I would recommend this tour in a heartbeat.
Great, knowledgable...

5.00Great, knowledgable guide. Learned a lot about the market and felt like it was the perfect amount of time spent. Favorite stop was the truffle shop. Pike Place Chowder had the best tasting sample. Also had gelato, tacos, some pastries, and lots more.
Chip was our food tour...
