Seattle’s popular Underground Tour is set to uncover new layers of our city’s history this fall when they open the Underground Underground Tour, which tells the long-forgotten story of the region’s Mole People.
“We’re so excited to finally unbury this chapter in our city’s history and take visitors to Seattle on a tour they actually won’t have to pretend they thought was interesting,” said Underground Underground Tour Guide Vanessa Burroughs. “The tour includes cave markings archaeologists say appear to indicate insincere promises to meet up for coffee dating all the way back to 1987.”
Visitors will soon descend 40 feet below the surface of the original Underground Tour to explore the previously secret labyrinthine tunnels Mole People once inhabited to get a better sense of their unique culture and society.
“Did you know, moles are generally antisocial creatures which explains why they loved Seattle in the first place?” Burroughs said. “But they are also nocturnal which may be why they long ago left for a city where there’s literally anything to do after 9pm.”
Burroughs said that by the time the tour opens, the gift shop will of course be fully stocked with shovels, souvenir claw gloves, and headlamps should anyone be struggling enough to afford housing elsewhere and choose to repopulate Seattle’s Underground Underground.
