This one-hour, small-group tour will take you into the captivating world beneath Seattle’s streets. You’ll head below Pioneer Square to explore the former street level that existed in the 1890s, when the now-sprawling city was little more than a small, Native American encampment.

You’ll travel along the underground pathways constructed over a century ago and learn intriguing details about Seattle’s early history from your knowledgeable guide. You’ll hear stories of the Klondike Gold Rush, Skid Row and the area’s original inhabitants – the indigenous Coast Salish people.
