Experience the heart of Seattle’s tech center through the lens of a culinary walking tour.

You stop at six different locations in South Lake Union for tastings and stories behind the distinctive local businesses. Eat Seattle is permitted and licensed by the Pike Place Market PDA to operate tours in the Pike Place Historical District. The PDA requires any business or person conducting tours within it’s properties and in the public areas of the historical district to be pre-approved and to have a license for this activity

Relaxing bite of the city

Delicious food and food history
My wife and I did the Street Food Tour of South Lake Union and had a really good time. All of the food and drinks were delicious and the portions were big enough that we took some to go. Chef Eric was extremely knowledgeable and added a lot of cool food history in addition to the business and local history. We'd absolutely do another tour through the Eat Seattle Tours and are going to grab a drink at one of the stops again later tonight!
Response from the operator: Thank you for the wonderful review, Trr287! We are thrilled that you and your wife had such a good time tasting delicious street food and learning history with Chef Eric. Enjoy your drinks back at that spot tonight!

Street Food Tour of South Lake Union- Area of Amazon Spheres: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Seattle.
How much does Street Food Tour of South Lake Union- Area of Amazon Spheres cost?
+
Prices start at $80 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Seattle usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Street Food Tour of South Lake Union- Area of Amazon Spheres take?
+
Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Seattle is not rushed.
Is Street Food Tour of South Lake Union- Area of Amazon Spheres worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 76 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 65 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Seattle, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Street Food Tour of South Lake Union- Area of Amazon Spheres?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Street Food Tour of South Lake Union- Area of Amazon Spheres suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Street Food Tour of South Lake Union- Area of Amazon Spheres?
+
Around 23 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Seattle can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Seattle and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Street Food Tour of South Lake Union- Area of Amazon Spheres start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Seattle within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Seattle?
+
Seattle's best days leave the city: Mount Rainier, the San Juans, Olympic National Park and Snoqualmie Falls are all day-trip range, and each one lives or dies on the driver-guide. In town, Pike Place food tours, underground history walks and harbour cruises dominate. Our ranking favours operators with small vans over full coaches on the mountain runs. On Outty we rank every Seattle experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Mt. Rainier Day Tour from Seattle, Seattle City and Snoqualmie Falls Half-Day Guided Tour, Chef Guided Food Tour of Pike Place Market. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Seattle?
+
June to September for clear Rainier views and reliable ferry weather. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Seattle?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Street Food Tour of South Lake Union- Area of Amazon Spheres?
+
Included: Chef Guide; Guided Tour of SLU Neighborhood- where the Amazon Spheres are located; and Lunch. Not included: Gratuities are not included in the price. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

+

Is Street Food Tour of South Lake Union- Area of Amazon Spheres wheelchair or stroller accessible?
+
