8 days in Seattle Itinerary

Nicknamed the "Emerald City" because of its abundant evergreen trees, Seattle is the cultural and business center of the Pacific Northwest, as well as a popular holiday destination.

Benaroya Hall has been added to your itinerary. Eschew the tourist crowds and head to Fairhaven Historic District and Chateau Ste. Michelle Vineyards. Venture out of the city with trips to Whatcom Falls Park (in Bellingham), LeMay - America's Car Museum (in Tacoma) and Hands On Children's Museum (in Olympia). And it doesn't end there: walk around Kerry Park, explore the world behind art at Seattle Art Museum, get advice or help at Seattle Public Library, and let your taste buds guide you at a local gastronomic tour.
