Thinking Green


From the company inception, Shutter Tours employees have been dedicated to making a positive impact on the environment and are focused on making business decisions to ensure a better environmental future.

Seattle Shutter Tours is 'Thinking Green'

We Provide a Walking Tour

Walking throughout the city is not only healthy exercise, but reduces oil dependencies and carbon emissions.

Metal Water Bottles

Our tour guides are dedicated to using metal water bottles as opposed to throw away plastic.

Seattle Metro Passes

Our employees live in close proximity to the city, allowing us easy access to work via the bus.

Rechargeable Batteries

We encourage the use of rechargeable batteries and proper disposal of non rechargeables.

Natural Fibers

Our female guides wear polo shirts made from Eco-Fiber made from 38% organic bamboo fibers.

Encourage use of Smart Strips

Smart Strips sense when your computer or television shuts off. When it does, it automatically cuts power to your peripheral devices to eliminate 'phantom loads'

We Support Our Market Vendors

Our employees buy from local farmers and neighborhood markets for a positive environmental impact.
