The Locks with Return Bus option includes the Lock Tour PLUS shuttle service back to the original departure location, making a round trip tour.
The cruise portion starts & ends at 2 different central Seattle locations. Choose to depart Elliott Bay/Pier 54 or South Lake Union/AGC Marina.
Enjoy a narrated cruise over Lake Union, Ballard Locks, Puget Sound & Elliott Bay. Lake Union is home to the famous floating home community seen in the classic Sleepless in Seattle. The lake is an active airport for seaplanes, water sports & the fishing industry. You'll pass many commercial docks (home to vessels from the show Deadliest Catch). On your way from the freshwater of Lake Union to the saltwater of the Puget Sound, you pass through the Ballard Locks which holds the saltwater out of the lakes. In Puget Sound, enjoy astonishing vistas of Seattle's unique skyline, Mt. Rainier and ferry boats plying the waters.
After the Locks Tour, board a coach shuttle back. Transfer only/No narration.
