Highlights
- Columbia River Gorge National Scenic Area - The nation’s second National Scenic Area, the Columbia River Gorge is also the largest and most densely populated, offering the amenities of urban centers close to the wild beauty of the outdoors. And that beauty is matched only by the stories that can be told here: of tribal people fishing, trading and thriving along its banks; of Lewis and Clark’s Corps of Discovery epochal 1805-06 journey; of pioneers launching their worldly possessions down its rapids; of Samuel Hill championing the nation’s first scenic highway and enticing generations of visitors to this heady, handsome place. It’s fitting that the Columbia River Gorge is known as one of the 7 Wonders of Oregon. We will drive through this area as we explore the Gorge.

Fun and activity packed tour - Wonderful city and waterfalls tour with Jeff! He was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable about the city and shared a lot of tips and recommendations during the our tour. He kept us safe and with our small group size, we were able to see additional spots not included in the itinerary. Would highly recommend another tour with him and the company!

Comprehensive 1 day Portland / gorge tour - On time pickup from friendly tour guide Phil. We headed to the gorge in the morning and he dropped us off at all the good spots. In the afternoon we did the city tour and he was very knowledgeable of the area.

Great Tour! - Highly recommend this tour! Phil was our guide and he was fantastic, he has so much knowledge of the city and the Columbia River Gorge. He also kept us on time while still giving us enough time at each stop. We saw 5 different waterfalls and so many different sites in Portland. We were only in the city for 1 day and we feel like we covered so much.
