| 2010 Tillicum Village Experience
|
Immerse yourself in Northwest Native American culture. A relaxing boat ride transports you from Seattle's Pier 55 to Blake Island where you feast on an appetizer of steamed clams, followed by salmon cooked on cedar stakes over an open fire. Enjoy your meal at a shared table in a traditional cedar longhouse, surrounded by Northwest Coast native crafts and artwork.
After you eat, performers enchant you with ceremonial dances, myths, and legends of the Northwest Coast native people. Learn about the customs and beliefs of the Pacific Northwest's original inhabitants in this mesmerizing stage show.
Finish off your excursion with free time to explore the beach or admire handicrafts in the gift gallery. Then board your boat for a scenic ride downtown, taking in views of the Olympic Mountains and Seattle skyline.
In the Chinook language, "Tillicum" means "friendly people." The Tillicum Village Experience offers a rich and vibrant look at one of the Pacific Northwest's oldest and most fascinating cultures.
Transportation from the Gray Line desk is not included. Tour departs from Pier 55 on the Seattle Waterfront.
STEAMED CLAMS IN NECTAR
As you disembark the boat join other guests for a welcoming mug of
steamed clams in broth with a touch of butter and onions – delicious!
As is tradition at Tillicum, the used shells are crushed under foot to create the beautiful pathway.
TRADITIONAL ALDER BAKED SALMON
Savor this centuries-old treat! Our salmon, baked around alder wood fires on cedar stakes,

the salmon retains moisture and takes on a wonderful mild flavor unique to this style of cooking.
Served with our signature Juniper Berry Seasoning.
