Very interesting. The lunch was OK, but not amazing given the price. The tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and told us so many things about the area and its history. Extremely educational!

A very pleasant surprise. Food was very good, staff was very friendly, and the presentation was very professional. We've seen a lot and this was great.

Very helpful staff. My dad was in a wheelchair and they were extremely careful with him. However, we did not enjoy the Native show as much as the previous two visits. Too much talk and not very much dancing and music. Really good buffet, though! Try it.

It was very educational little trip and the food was great. We wish we had more time to explore the island.

Seattle weather was fantastic. The Captain was very knowledgeable about the history of Seattle and pointed out important aspects of the Seattle history and various areas. He was also very friendly. After docking on Blake Island, we were welcomed with a cup of clams and clam nectar...yum! The buffet dinner was great and the salmon was done perfectly, very moist and full of flavour. The show was okay. The only feedback I have is that they do more dancing to show the history of the native american heritage. There was too much narration. We had international guests with us and they did not understand alot of English. The dancing would have told a better story for them. We were treated with a wonderful view of the Seattle waterfront and skyline on the way back to Seattle.

Very enjoyable excursion! Learned alot from the guide on the cruise to the village, then had a great meal and an interesting multimedia presentation afterwards--would have liked it to be longer!

This was a brilliant morning and afternoon out - highlight of our three work holiday in America - which is saying something as we went to Chicago, Glacier National Park, Vancouver, Portland and San Francisco as well as Seattle. And we got to see Mount rainier as we came back! Brilliant organisation, brilliant guide, brilliant food and presentation - What more can we say - Natalie and Peter from Bath, England

Going to Blake Island we got some history about the area surrounding us and we were then told once we were off the boat we would have some clams and dispose of the shells by crushing them with your shoe and once in the smokehouse we sat down for dinner and of course salmon was one of the items served.
We then watched for about 20minutes native americans dance and tell their stories and we then had about 25minutes of free time to explore the island.
Summarize "GREAT"

This was an amazing experience, great for the whole family. The food was beyond amazing, the dance was great, the service was perfect. Thanks for the great experience! The ONLY thing my family and I wished was different, was for more time to explore the island after dinner. We were given just about 45 mins of walking time after dinner.

We started off on a fantastic boat ride-took approx 45 mins-from the wharf to the Tillicum village,with full commentary on the way.We were greeted by the locals with a cup of the clam broth, the tradition was to drink the broth,toss the clam shells on the ground and crush up with your feet,this makes for a great pathway from the boat to the entrance.The show was good, the food was great,we saw the salmon being baked in the traditional way-plenty to eat, fresh salads and chocolate berry cake,and of course the salmon, were on the menu.We headed back to Seattle after dark,what an amazing tour.I recommed this to any 1st timers to Seattle.Regards Bev -Australia
