We are doing tours for July 4th. 5PM and 7PM.  If we have interest in the 9PM we might do one, but given the fireworks and holiday - we are guessing that the earlier tours will be the favorites tonight. 

The online price is $15.00 (no additional ticketing fees), which means buying tickets in advance is the same price as walking up. This helps us gauge how big the groups will be and when to call in reinforcements. While you are still welcome to walk up to any tour, buying tickets in advance is encouraged.

Mercedes at the Gum WallThere are three ghost tours in Seattle. Market Ghost Tours started over 20 years ago on Halloween night, it is now offered every weekend of the year. Our tour guides are standing at the Gum Wall for every tour, whether or not we have reservations, so if you walk up you will find us there. (Please arrive 10 minutes early). Each tour company in Seattle offers very different tours, so if you are ghost tour fan, you can take all three.

We have a coupon for the 5pm tours, which focus heavily on history in the Pike Place Market. Click here for the coupon and join me (Mercedes). I tend to do the early tours after working in the office for a few hours, at 1410 Post Alley, below the Gum Wall. 

Michele (co-owner) and I learned, while traveling in the South this March, that Seattle actually has far less ghost tour companies than other cities. Savannah blew our minds with how many tours offer ghost stories - and we went on as many as possible. We went on tours in Savannah, St Augustine and New Orleans - all high on the list of haunted places in the US. Yes, we learned a lot, especially how to run a great tour company.

Expect us, every tour, at the Gum Wall.

The 5PM tours cater to families and those interested more in the history of the Market. If that is of interest to you, then buy a ticket for a 5PM tour. We walk into the buildings and have access to more of the shops in the Market at that time.
If you want the ghosts, the 7PM and 9PM tours are great. That later tours crawl through the Market streets, 1st Ave and Western; areas most people don't even know about.
