Show Me Seattle · Pier 91 or Pier 66
Show Me Seattle meets you at the cruise terminal, loads one large bag per person, shows you the city for the morning and drops you at SeaTac or your hotel. Pick it if your Alaska cruise docks early and your flight leaves in the afternoon or evening.
Disembarkation day usually means hours of dead time between the ship and the flight. This tour fills them. Pickup is at 8:20 AM in Lane R at Pier 91, or 8:40 AM at the benches in front of the Edgewater Hotel next to Pier 66, and the coach leaves at 9:00 AM sharp once everyone's aboard. Keep your phone on: the listing warns that pickup times can change and the team will call.
The sightseeing itself takes about three hours; with the transfers, the listing gives about 5. You stop at the Amazon Spheres, Kerry Park, the Ballard Locks and the Fremont Troll, 10 to 15 minutes each, and drive past Pike Place Market, Pioneer Square and Chinatown-International District. Guests report a market stop for lunch on some days, with crowds. Then it's SeaTac or your hotel.
Your bags ride with you: one large bag per person plus carry-ons. Or skip that and use the Port of Seattle's free Port Valet service, which checks your bags through to the airline from the ship, for domestic flights leaving after 11 AM. Two cautions: confirmation can take up to 48 hours, and the 2026 cruise season ended on 11 October, so this is a tour to book for 2027. Our cruise-day guide covers the pre-cruise version too.
Pier 91: Lane R at 8:20 AM. Pier 66: the benches at the Edgewater Hotel turnaround next door, 8:40 AM.
The coach leaves at 9 sharp, past Pike Place Market, Pioneer Square and the stadium district.

★★★★★Casey [...] You provided us with 5 hours of facts about Seattle, fun and entertainment. What a brilliant way to spend the morning once we had disembarked our Cruise Ship .. and you even dropped us off at the airport.
