“Great tour and guide - Earl was an amazing, informative, and hilarious guide learned so much about Seattle in such a short amount of time. He took the time to know who was on the bus where we were from and why we came to town. So it was personal and very inviting. He even dropped us off at preferred location for each group which helped us tremendously since we were reliant upon public transportation or ride share. We loved you Earl !!!
