Welcome to Seattle — the Emerald City. On this self-guided driving tour, you’ll explore one of America’s most beautiful and dynamic cities, where dramatic natural scenery meets innovation, music, coffee culture, and iconic landmarks. Our route will take you through Seattle’s historic downtown and along the waterfront of Elliott Bay. You’ll pass famous places like Pike Place Market and the original Starbucks, see the futuristic Space Needle, and visit vibrant neighborhoods like Capitol Hill. Along the way, we’ll stop at some of the city’s best viewpoints — including one of the most photographed skyline views in the United States — and discover unique places like Gas Works Park, where Seattle turned an old industrial site into one of its most creative public spaces. The tour will also take you through the beautiful campus of the University of Washington and past scenic lakes and parks that show why Seattle is known as one of the greenest cities in America.

Welcome to Spokane, Washington — a city where nature and culture meet in the most dramatic way possible. I’m your UCPlaces tour guide, and we’re about to explore one of the most beautiful urban landscapes in the Pacific Northwest — a place where waterfalls roar through downtown, historic architecture lines the streets, and green parks seem to pop up around every corner. Spokane sits along the Spokane River, a force of nature that has shaped this city for thousands of years. The river powered its early industries, inspired its name — which comes from the Spokane Tribe’s word meaning Children of the Sun — and still provides the backdrop for everyday life here. On this drive, we’ll follow that river’s path through the heart of the city and into its scenic bluffs. You’ll see Spokane Falls thundering beneath bridges, the elegant Davenport Hotel — the city’s Grand Dame — the peaceful gardens of Manito Park, and the breathtaking overlook along High Drive Bluff, where the valley stretches endlessly below. Along the way, you’ll discover how this former frontier town grew into a vibrant, creative community — one that honors its past while embracing everything new and outdoorsy. So settle in and enjoy the ride — keep your eyes on the road, but make sure someone else in the car has their camera ready. Spokane’s full of sights worth remembering.
