Not For Tourists Guide to Seattle 2016

With details on everything from Pioneer Square to Pike Place Market, this is the only guide a native or traveler needs.

The Not For Tourists Guide to Seattle is the manual to the seaport city that no local, or tourist, should be without. This map-based guidebook divides Seattle and the Eastside into 49 mapped neighborhoods that are dotted with user-friendly icons plotting the nearest essential services and entertainment locations, while providing important information on Seattle’s restaurants, bookstores, coffee shops, and everything else you need to know about the Emerald City.

Want to taste hand-crafted foods and drinks? NFT has you covered. How about strolling through Seattle’s green parks and millionaire neighborhoods? We’ve got that, too. The nearest Starbucks location, curiosity shops, art shows, or nightspots—whatever you need—NFT puts it at your fingertips. The guide also features:

• A foldout highway map
• Over 100 neighborhood maps
• Listings for performance venues and outdoor activities
• Essential Seattle movies and books

For a little more than the cost of a ticket to the top of the Space Needle, you’ll have all of Seattle at your fingertips.

Not For Tourists (NFT) released their first book, a guide to Manhattan, in May of 2000. Today, NFT produces eleven books each year, working closely with city and neighborhood editors in Atlanta, Boston, Brooklyn, Chicago, London, Los Angeles, New York, Philadelphia, San Francisco, Seattle, and Washington DC. Their offices are in New York City.
