Get excited by going behind the scenes at an independent local coffee shop. After getting a bit of caffeine and culture it’s time to head outside. Discovery Park is one of our best-kept secrets: trails, a lighthouse, coast, forest, bluffs, blackberries—so many good things!After a stroll we’ll head to Ballard, the maritime neighborhood many consider the most-perfect of Seattle’s great neighborhoods. Visit one of Ballard’s many famous breweries for a pre-lunch tasting and then it’s on to the locally-renowned Ballard Sunday Farmer’s Market! Handmade goods, local and organic foods, quaint shops and restaurants all packed together in the pedestrian-only core of Ballard. Though lunch is on your own—we’re guessing you’ll thank us as your try a little bit of everything from quaint market vendors.The highlights don’t end there: a visit to the Ballard Locks for salmon biology and maritime history, a stop at Kerry Park for the most famous city viewpoint, and on to a local winery for a tasting before it’s all over before dinner. We’re betting you’ll understand and love Seattle more after all of this…Additional InformationConfirmation will be received at time of bookingPlease wear comfortable shoes suitable for walkingWarm clothing is recommended during the winter months (snow jacket, sturdy hiking shoes, warm hat, insulated gloves, layers)Note: Inclement winter weather may result in road closures and other unpredictable changes to the itinerary, which the guide will adjust accordinglyA maximum of 10 people per tourAdult pricing applies to all travelersInclusionsDowntown Seattle hotel, AirBNB, etc pickup and drop-offMorning coffeeLight snacksTransportation by Mercedes van or luxury SUVProfessional naturalist guideWarm clothing available on requestExclusionsLunch is on your own at the famous Ballard Farmers Market–an opportunity to try many regional favorites!Gratuities (optional)Departure PointPick-up and drop-off at Downtown Seattle hotels, the Cruise Terminal, or the Hotel Monaco at 1101 4th Ave, Seattle, WADeparture Ti
