Delicious Seattle coffee tour - William was very informational, plus he added some great humor throughout! He Chose a classic cafe then some more unique ones which was so great as probably would not have tried on our own! Would definitely recommend, a beautiful walk around town, that also gave history all along the way which made the walk not seem as long and broke it up in between cafes. Great way to see Seattle and some amazing coffee cafes!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ - William, our incredibly knowledgeable tour guide, made this tour one of the best parts of our one and only trip to this city! This is a must do - but if you’re not a coffee person, I wouldn’t hesitate to book any other tour through this company.

Take this coffee tour! - We had a fantastic time on the coffee tour! Charlie was super knowledgeable and curated a diverse list of coffees for the group to experience. Each of the three shops had something unique to offer and he made sure to highlight the best. He took his time answering all our questions and at the end of the tour offered other recommendations for places to eat and visit during our time in Seattle. I can’t recommend the experience more!

Good. Could be better - The places are great and coffee tasting is good. I feel it’s pricy for what you get. Only three small samples. Also the whole coffee process is just explained by the tour guide. I can sit and read that anywhere else. I would have liked more information about things that you could actually see. The tour takes place in what seems to be a very historical neighborhood.
