If you want to take a guided historic tour in Seattle, you can opt for the Bill Speidel's Underground Tour, which is one of the most interesting and unusual destinations in the city. It is an underground architectural beauty and while touring the area, you would feel as if you are on a time machine, visiting the nineteenth century downtown Seattle - the Pioneer Square, one of the oldest historic districts of the city.

Although it is a professional guided tour, before you take the tour to the Speidel, know the history of the place so that you find the tour more interesting. The underground structure was built in 1954 by publicist Bill Speidel in a bid to restore the dismal state of the Pioneer Square. The subterranean passages paints the picture of city's downtown and you will get at least a sectional view of the city in the good old days.

The tour starts from the Doc Maynard's Public House that houses a salon of the nineteenth century. You will enjoy walking through the historic lanes underground while listening about the history and culture of the place. It takes more than 90 minutes to completely cover touring the region. The final destination is the historic Rogues Gallery, the underground model of this building is a gift shop showcasing and selling the art and craft of those days.

It is not a great idea to take kids along, because they may get bored walking for a long time. Tickets are available online as well as at the venue. Ticket prices are $15.00 for adults. There are special concessions for senior citizens and students.

Unlike most towns, Seattle has gorgeous underground tours that offer you great adventures throughout your stay and most importantly, your trip. You can afford to walk humbly in Seattle's streets and sidewalks as well as subterranean throughways at very competitive rates. Taste the Doc Maynard public house that houses a nightclub and a pub through to Pioneer Square and many other places; all in one and half hours.

The Seattle Underground is one of the more popular attractions in Seattle. It is a network of old passageways and basements found in this part of Washington. This was actually the ground level of Seattle way back in the mid-1800. As time goes by, the streets of Seattle were elevated, yet, these passageways were preserved up until today.

How did the Seattle Underground City came about?

The first buildings of Seattle are actually made of wood. Because they are made from wood, it can easily go down to ashes once caught on fire. The fire accident of 1889, caused by a cabinetmaker accidentally igniting a glue pot, turned the city to smoke. The fire department's attempt to keep off the fire did not succeed. The fire destroyed a total of 33 city blocks.

Instead of rebuilding the city, the government leaders of the city ordered to create new buildings out of stone/ bricks and to build them two stories above its original street grade. As a result, there were ladders and submerged sidewalks all over the city, creating a unique area of the Seattle city, which is now referred to as the Seattle Underground.
