Seattle Scenic Seaplane Tour

THE BEST WAY TO SEE SEATTLE IS FROM ABOVE

BOOK A SCENIC FLIGHT

SEE THE EMERALD CITY SHINE BELOW YOU

In Seattle, you can do more than live near the water, you can actually live on it in one of the houseboat communities on Lake Union. That’s where your Scenic Seaplane Tour starts, gliding across the surface of the lake and up into the air where you’ll get a bird’s eye view of the University of Washington, and its lakeside football stadium. It’s then on over to Elliott Bay where you’ll see the city’s dramatic skyline and Seattle’s professional sports stadiums. Everyone gets a window seat on this 30-minute sightseeing flight!

The Seattle Scenic Seaplane Tour is a uniquely Northwest way to see this world-class city. You get to enjoy the unique thrill of flying off the water and soaring over one of the most beautiful regions in the world. The flight ends just like it began, gliding across the water of Lake Union right in the heart of the city for an experience you’ll remember forever.

Departure Terminal:    Lake Union Flight Duration:   30 min. Cost:   $119 per person

START IN THE HEART OF SEATTLE

You’ll take off from our terminal in South Lake Union, one of the fastest-growing neighborhoods in the city with tech companies like Amazon and Google providing the horsepower for that growth. The lake sits at the heart of Seattle, serving as a reference point for four distinct neighborhoods. Seattle Center is located just to the southwest while Gas Works Park sits on the north shore at the site of the old Seattle Gas Light Company.

OUR CITY’S SIGNATURE LANDMARK

The Space Needle is a landmark that was constructed for the 1962 World’s Fair, which was held in Seattle. At 605 feet from ground to tip, it was the country’s tallest structure west of the Mississippi when completed. The observation deck is located 520 feet off the ground, and offers a panorama view of the city skyline, the Olympic mountains to the west, the Cascades to the East as well as Elliott Bay and the Puget Sound. It takes the elevator 41 seconds to go from the base of the needle to the top.

VISIT SEATTLE | TAKING FLIGHT

Conrad – opera singer, Dallas native, and first-time visitor to Seattle – takes you along on a picture-perfect flight over Lake Union, Elliott Bay, and downtown on a Kenmore Air seaplane.

Conrad was one of eight real travelers who experienced the sights, sounds, textures, smells, and tastes of Seattle in the series, “Seattle First Takes.”

MEET THE OWNER

Seaplane Adventures is owned and run by Aaron Singer, long-time pilot and resident of Sausalito and Marin county for over 25 years.

Seaplane Adventures was founded in 1945 as Commodore Seaplanes by a returning veteran World War II seaplane pilot, Bob Law. Since that time the seabase has been in continuous operation, variously becoming the largest flight school in the United States in the early fifties to the largest regional air carrier serving Lake Tahoe (in the Piaggio Flying Gull flying boat) to rehearsal space for the Grateful Dead, Jefferson Airplane and Carlos Santana.

Aaron Singer bought San Francisco Seaplane Tours on January 2012 and has rebranded the company as Seaplane Adventures and revamped the operation with a new logo, new energy and 100% passion for flying seaplanes in the Bay Area. We are in the ‘Happy Business’ – it’s our job to bring you a safe, exhilarating, beautiful, and One-of-a-kind experience flying via seaplane or helicopter over San Francisco!
