Simple and straightforward front-end
This app offers a somewhat different perspective than other tools of its kind as it focuses on a map-based navigation method and this influences a lot the appearance. Thus, the visually pleasing elements of graphical design are left aside as the practical aspect takes over.
A very positive aspect is the pleasant experience coming from the fluent map navigation in the road view, as well as in the aerial mode and also among the several areas of Seattle Guide, lacking any kind of lag or some other type of flaw.
Check out the main spots to see in Seattle
With regard to the organization of the content, this utility offers two simple ways of looking at the places you might me interested in. Thus, you have the possibility to check out each location from the list of places kept inside the main menu.

Enjoy a lot of info about every landmark, seasoned with some nice pictures
This utility displays a good deal of details concerning any of the entries on the list of places or when you make a selection from the map shown inside the main screen. The data is taken from one of the most reliable online sources out there, namely Wikipedia.
