Description

Good to Know

Pike Place Market is one of the oldest and most storied food markets in the US, and this tour takes you through it the right way. Your local guide knows the stalls, the vendors, and the stories behind them, leading you past the crowds and into the parts of the market most visitors never find. Along the way, you'll taste what makes this place worth the trip: iconic clam chowder, local sweets, and a Secret Dish revealed only on the day. You'll meet the producers behind the food, hear how they work, and understand why this market has been feeding Seattle since 1907. The tour also takes you downstairs into the Downunder, a quieter stretch beneath the main market floor where the daily rhythm of local life and the traditions of North Pacific fishermen have played out for generations.

A must do tour

There is no other way to visit the Pike Market for the first time without doing this tour. We got to the market little early before start of tour and walked around a bit. Yea no way we would have fully experience every thing without. Our tour guide Allison was amazing. She was a ray of sunshine. Very personable. She guided us through the market in such a great pace and order. She provided great Seattle and Market history, which we really enjoyed as well. And our taste and bites were great choice...read more

Way more than we expected and we were expecting a lot!

Allison gave us a great tour with more than 8 tastes of Seattle products through the market. As is usual for Secret Food Tours there was ample history and legendary spots were pointed out. Allison expertly guided us through the market so as to experience the market just ahead of the crowd. We would highly recommend this tour and ask for Allison if you can!

Pike Market Food Tour

We had a wonderful tour of the market with Allison! She was very excited to show us her favorite spots and share the history of the market with us. We were lucky to have a small group, making it very easy to stay together and see and hear everything. We sampled all kinds of food and liked everything she chose for us. (And got to skip the lines, too!) We'd highly recommend a tour!

Response from ViatorOctober 09, 2026

We loved seeing you enjoy the food and get into the spirit of the day. Sharing Secret Food Tours with you was a real pleasure from beginning to end. We hope there’s another visit in your future!

Seattle Secret Food Tour

Our guide, Allison, was great. We are locals in Seattle, but signed up for the Seattle Secret Food Tours (www.secrettours.com) as a fun Sunday afternoon in our home town. Allison catered our secret tour to vendors within the Pike Place Market that we had not been experienced previously, provided fascinating history of the Market, and was fun on top of it. Thank you Allison, you have our whole hearted recommendation for our guests who come to our fascinating city of Seattle.

Response from ViatorOctober 06, 2026
