1.Seattle SEA Airport to Downtown|Pier 91|Bellevue Private Transfer

★★★★★★★★★★3.5 · 134 reviews · 30 minutes to 1 hour (approx.) · from $41Our pick

Book a private, air-conditioned ride from Seattle-Tacoma International Airport to downtown Seattle, Pier 91, or Bellevue. Your driver tracks your flight and waits up to 60 minutes after landing. Expect text updates, a vehicle assigned by availability, and room for one suitcase plus one small carry-on per person.

“I was a bit hesitant to book this transport after reading some reviews. I initially had a problem with my booking as confirmation came through for a day earlier than I had scheduled. So check that confirmation closely. The company stood behind their policies and corrected my booking. Our assigned driver was very communative. Text night before our arrival to check details. When we landed I was able to reach out and inquire about pickup location. He was there quickly even though airport services took us to a location that wasn't optimal. Car was clean, although seat covers were showing wear and tear and should probably be evaluated for replacement.…”

We headed out of Seattle in a downpour, but as we progressed the rain stopped and we were blessed with a pleasantly sunny day.

There were plenty of stops along the way, different waterfalls and vantage points, to see marmots, at Reflection Lake, and even to take a short hike. We picked up lunch and snacks…”
