Seattle Gold Rush Quest: Race to the S.S. Portland

You're standing in Pioneer Square holding a ticket for the S.S. Portland. The Klondike Gold Rush is calling and the ship won't wait. But something is wrong. People pass right through the space where you are. The city feels familiar and utterly foreign at the same time. And nobody, not one person seems to see you at all. In this self-guided mystery quest through Seattle's most historic streets, follow clues from Pioneer Square to Pike Place Market to the waterfront, solving puzzles rooted in the real history of the 1897 Gold Rush. Use the free Questo app to navigate 10 stops through old Seattle. Stand at the site of the Great Seattle Fire, look up at Smith Tower (the tallest building on the west coast for half a century), wander through Pike Place Market before the crowds, and reach the waterfront where the S.S. Portland once docked with two tons of Klondike gold. Every stop pulls you deeper into a story with a twist you won't see coming.

Seattle Uncovered Waterfront Walking Tour

Most visitors will walk Seattle's waterfront and see a nice view. This tour shows you what's actually behind it. From Pioneer Square — where the city literally started — along the newly rebuilt waterfront to the ferry terminal, we connect the dots between Seattle's past and the city you see today. Join with a local guide as they share the stories these streets don't tell on their own. You'll learn why the city burned down and rebuilt itself in a year, how the waterfront went from industrial grit to public park, and what makes Seattle's relationship with the water unlike any other city in the country. Small groups, big stories, and a walk you'll remember long after you leave. Please let us know ahead of time about any mobility restrictions. The tour includes roughly 1.5 miles of walking.
