Sea-Tac to Seattle neighbourhoods Straight to the front door.
Capitol Hill, Queen Anne, Ballard and the neighbourhoods north of the ship canal — door to door from SEA. Estimated fare $82–100 in a sedan — the exact price is always confirmed on request.
Seattle beyond the towers.
Plenty of Seattle arrivals are not headed downtown at all. Returning residents, guests staying with family, short-term rentals and boutique hotels spread across the neighbourhoods — and an airport ride to a residential street is exactly where a private car beats a pickup queue.
Capitol Hill sits just east of downtown: independent restaurants, a livelier evening, and streets that are steep and parked tight. Queen Anne climbs above Seattle Center, with quiet residential streets on the top of the hill. Ballard, across the ship canal to the north-west, is the longest of the three drives — its route runs through or around downtown, then over the Ballard Bridge or along 15th Avenue.
Fremont, Wallingford, Green Lake and the University District are quoted on request and usually fall between the Queen Anne and Ballard fares. Your driver comes to the door, not the end of the block.
