Part of the experience is to get out on the waters of Puget Sound, so enjoy an Argosy Cruise or enjoy Tillicum Village on Blake Island for an authentic Native American dinner and show. Waterway Cruises will take you across Lake Washington to view homes of some of Seattle’s most prosperous residents, and along-side the houseboats where “Sleepless in Seattle” was filmed.
