This is the Seattle sightseeing cruise that started it all. 

Since 1949, this narrated harbor cruise has been a favorite attraction for millions of people, both visitors from afar and locals alike. Enjoy this sightseeing tour of Seattle’s historic waterfront, with seemingly never-ending views of the city skyline, the Great Wheel Ferris wheel, the Space Needle, the Cascade and Olympic mountain ranges, and Mt. Rainier (weather permitting). 

The ship typically features an enclosed lower deck with an open upper sun deck, certified for 250 travelers but generally accommodating between 75-150 guests.

It was raining, but still a beautiful experience (bring a raincoat and umbrella). The tour guide was wonderful and he also prepared our Cloudy Day Coffees, which were delicious and kept us warm. We were blessed to see a pod of orcas swimming. I would definitely recommend this to travelers of all ages.
