The Space Needle is awesome. But. I enjoyed myself sooo much at Pike's Pier! A must if you go to Seattle! The fabulous little shops, the wonderful atmosphere, and friendly locals! Seattle is a place I could live!!!!!

Casinos, Museums, Restraunts and Art Galleries. Lots of great shopping and site seeing. Pike Place Market, and the Space Needles are must sees. and if you like sports go support the SeaHawks or Mariners.

For a fun Day visit the Pike Place Market, with three levels of curiosos, the flying fish men, the quartet always singing down the street there is always things to see. including a ghost ( a little indian girl) who supposedly roams the halls late at night!!! but bring your pocket books, with all the amazing shops, I'm usually broke by the time I leave

Porter Square music clubs (once upon a time) had a single cover charge to get into all the clubs.

The Pacific Place Parking Garage (6th/7th and Pine) has cheap evening/weekend rates. Enter after 5pm and it is $4 for 4 hours. Each additional hour is $2. Very affordable! Centrally located, easy to walk to movies, Pike Place Market, the Monorail, downtown, Pionier Square, etc.

Seattle is a place where you don't have to spend money to stay! It's filled with housing co-ops, homes where a group of individuals make collective decisions on living and home maintenance. Google search co-op seattle and you will find a place to stay for free! Couch surfing is safe and easy here in the Emerald City.

Ballard's fun 2 visit because there's all the shopping, dinning, and best of all the Ballard Locks!!

For as large as Seattle may be, the truth is that many struggle with transportation options while visiting the city. Taxi service can be hard to find, and ,in addition, is costly. Water ferries and public buses are also available for a much lower cost, but rarely do tourists want to have to carry their luggage onto these public options. Taxi is most convenient, but limousine and hired car service are often overlooked. Be aware that Seattle's private taxi companies will charge 18.5% in tax and will also add an airport facilities fee of around 11%. This can really drive up your taxi fares. Taxi Service Taxi service in Seattle is varied. It isn't an inexpensive option, however, so many people prefer to avoid trying to get a taxi. Many travelers find that it pays off to call ahead when you need taxi service because they can be hard to find out on the street. Rates are set by King County, so no matter what taxi company you select, the rates are the same. $2.50 flat rate for picking you up. $2.00 per mile plus an additional gas surcharge that varies. 50 cents for every minute the taxi driver must wait. 50 cents for each passenger over two. Children are excluded from this rule. $28 flat rate for passengers going to SeaTac Airport. Puget Sound Dispatch keeps a fleet of 360 taxis in King County and the Seattle area. When you think about the number of residents and tourists seeking rides after dinner or drinks, it isn't hard to understand why taxis can be hard to find. They are the area's oldest taxi company operating both Yellow Cabs and RedTop Taxis, so they are generally the most recommended. Puget Sound Dispatch accepts major credit cards or cash only. Personal checks and travelers checks are not accepted. You can reach Puget Sound Dispatch by calling one of four numbers: Eastside – (425) 455-4999 RedTop Taxi Service – (206) 789-4949 Seattle – (206) 622-6500 South County – (253) 872-5600 American Checker Cab is priced similarly to Puget Sound Dispatch.

Drivers are friendly and cabs are usually spotless. You can call (425) 259-2000 to arrange for a passenger pick up.

Seattle!! One good thing that's a must is to go to Ugimiya. That's where you can find Asian and Hawaiian food. It's just like a regular grocery store. There's also couple fast food venues inside to take a load off while doing your shopping.
