Seattle, being the huge city that it is, a ‘Seattle travel guide’ can be very helpful for a visitor to the ‘The rainy city’ or ‘the emerald city’. This Seattle travel guide assumes you’ve already put your foot on the city (probably by plane that landed on to the Seattle-Tacoma international airport).
First things first! You should perhaps have a reservation in a hotel already and if you haven’t this Seattle travel guide has a couple of suggestions: economy-Hotel Seattle (tel-1-877-846-7835), Seattle green tortoise hotel (tel-1-888-424-6783), luxury- hotel Monaco Seattle (tel-1800-945-2240). A Seattle travel guide should mention few of the tours around, not for one to stop referring to the Seattle travel guide but to enhance the beauty of the travel. Some tours, worth a take are mentioned below-
•Show me Seattle- a mini-bus tour.
•Seattle underground tour- A trip through the undergrounds of Pioneer square.
•Beeline tours.
•Seattle tours- through the major attractions of Seattle.
•Argosy cruises- this one includes a harbor and two lake-cruises.

The aspects covered so far in the Seattle travel guide are more related to amusement and for a fun-filled holiday in Seattle. However, a safe Seattle travel is the most important aspect and that can be possible only with responsible behavior from the tourists. The lines of the law of Seattle should never be crosses at any point of the Seattle travel. The nightlife here is one of the best of its kind in the world; however no compromise should be done on safety. Personal care and care of your belongings can help in making Seattle city a safer place. The area code for city of Seattle happens to be 206. Free Wi-Fi access is available in the Seattle public libraries and in many cafes of Seattle. Contacts of few hospitals can be helpful during Seattle travel.
