Things to Do in Seattle and Tacoma

We split the region into four areas: downtown Seattle with Pike Place Market and the waterfront; Seattle Center and the neighborhoods around it; Tacoma; and the day trips that make the Pacific Northwest famous, from Mount Rainier to the San Juan Islands. Each section below shows a few of the most-reviewed tours and tickets, and each area page has the full list along with places we think are worth your time.

Food tours of Pike Place Market and full-day mountain tours are the region's most popular bookings, and both fill up in summer, so reserve them early. If you plan to visit several Seattle Center attractions, compare the combined tickets and passes against buying entry one by one.
