Fun and Informative! - Jake was very knowledgeable and shared a lot of historical information along the way. We were making jokes about the fact that we were jumping in a white van for a true crime tour but we felt very comfortable from the start. It was nice to get driven around and there were a few stops to get out and snap some pics at pretty cool viewpoints.

An Entertaining and Educational Tour for Locals and Visitors Alike - Our senior center group took a ghost tour by van with Private Eye on Seattle Tours. It was well worth the price of admission. Jake is a great storyteller and just as good of a driver. (Seriously, her ability to concentrate on everything the city streets had to throw at us AND continue to tell us about the locations we were viewing was practically supernatural.) Everyone in the group currently lives in Seattle, and she had stories and spooky facts that people didn't already know. So, locals, this tour is good for you and the out-of-towners. You get to see a lot of the city, including several spots that tourists don't usually get to see. Overall, the feedback from people in our group was quite enthusiastic and uniformly positive, which is definitely not always the case. I will be planning on taking her True Crime tour at some point, as I'm sure it's also quite good. Book this if you're considering it. You won't be disappointed.

A must do! - Looked forward to the tour for the past couple of years, as I was meant to visit in 2020! Jake has always been super responsive and and she was on time at the specified pick up location. We had a wonderful day, she is so knowledgeable and goes out of her way to make sure you enjoy your tour and get all the photos you want. For any music or true crime fans, this is a must. As we wouldn't have found these areas on our own.

True crime tour was amazing!! - This tour was the very first thing we did when we landed in Seattle. It was a great way to start our trip. The tour takes you around Seattle, and our tour guide was very knowledgeable about the stories and history of all the places we went. It was a great way to see the city for the first time, and to learn where things were before the rest of our activities. Our tour guide was very polite, and she made sure everybody was happy and comfortable the whole trip. She was very knowledgeable, and went into depth with every sight and stop, making sure she gave us every detail on the stories and histories of the places and crimes we discussed on the tour. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone who is interested in true crime stories, as well as it’s a great way to get a good tour of the city!

Crime History - We had a great time on this tour. Interesting true crime stories and points of interest. My only wish was we got to get out and stop more but I don’t think that could happen on this type of tour. Our guide was so nice and informative. Went above and beyond.
