Seattle Getaway
Independent three-day Seattle city getaway, rail booked separately
Amtrak Vacations runs this three-day, two-night independent getaway to Seattle, known in its own marketing as the Emerald City. The package covers two nights' hotel accommodations along with a choice of a hop-on-hop-off tour or a seasonal city tour, giving travelers a guided way to see the main sights. Included admission to the Space Needle adds views over downtown, the bay and Mount Rainier on clear days, and admission to the Chihuly Garden and Glass exhibit covers its blown glass sculpture collection. Time is also left open for wandering Pike Place Market on your own, sampling local produce, breads and sweets, and strolling the waterfront. Because this is a getaway rather than an escorted tour, there is no tour director, and the operator does not publish a day-by-day schedule or name a specific hotel. It suits independent travelers wanting a short, self-paced city break, with the quoted price excluding rail travel to and from Seattle.
