Coffee tasting with variety and information

Excellent information. Loved getting questions answered and not being made to feel dumb. It was a great combination of standing sitting walking with bathroom breaks! Leesa was super kind and enjoyable to be with. We were able to visit different coffee places that I would never have gone into on my own. I got a great view of Capitol Hill that I’ve never experienced before. I learned a lot, and I see coffee in a totally different way now. If you’re going to drink, lots of coffee like a pub crawl, you’ll be disappointed

Delightful way to spend a summer afternoon

Stellar experience for a summer afternoon! Lisa was a wonderful and extremely knowledgeable tour guide. We loved how unique all three locations were: never would’ve thought about visiting the Oddfellows in a bookstore for example. It felt like we learned about coffee off the beaten track.

First rate coffee tour

Great tour! Tod is extremely knowledgeable - everything you need to know about coffee, interspersed with coffee culture in Seattle. Also has an extensive list of places to eat and drink coffee around the city. A local who is excited to share his knowledge and experiences.

Very happy with the experience

Tod was a very knowledgeable tour guide. You could see his passion for coffee, Seattle, Seattle coffee, fair trade and social responsibility. The progression of the tasting was very nice and the ending tasting was the perfect delicious end (and a coffee order I never would have ventured to try in my own). Tod is a fast talker (which I appreciate because I’m a fast listener) but if that isn’t your thing, he is open to slowing it down.
