Just lovely
You might want to arrive 30 minutes early so you can be seated in the upper dining hall where it’s much warmer. But just in case, be sure to bring a sweater or jacket, even if you’re going on a warm day. We went in May, it was in the low 70s, but the wind out on the bow was quite chilly. Also, we were seated on the bottom deck (we didn’t get there early 😉) for lunch, and the AC was chilly.
Still, it was a great experience! The staff is top notch, very friendly and very accommodating. Our waiter, Mori, was just the best! The food was excellent, the music was lovely, and the cruise itself was so enjoyable. It was great to see the Portland landscape from a whole different vantage point. Loved every minute of it, hope to do it again, and I highly recommend it for any occasion, but especially for a special occasion. Our trip was very special, a young man popped the question, and she said yes!! Go! You won’t regret it!

Cruising
The eggs Benedict was amazing! The chicken from the chicken and waffles is not good but the waffle was great. The bacon was probably the best part so much pepper and very crispy. The breakfast buffet had so many options they even had caviar. You can order additional plates for free outside of the buffet. The apple cider and orange juice was good. I’m not a drinker so I did not have a any bottomless mimosas. The views were also nice after breakfast on the top of the ship.

A Good Day in the Rain
Luke was very accommodating as we changed original plan a bit due to rainy and cold conditions. His alternative idea worked out very well for us. We also found him to be very knowledgeable as well as a good storyteller.
Snacks, tea and coffee were greatly appreciated. Would highly recommend.

Loved this tour!!
We went on this tour with Kevin and had a blast! We got to ride through the city like locals and learned a lot about Portland history as well! We stopped by different spots for pictures and got so many recommendations! The E-bikes were comfy and super easy to ride!

Best tour EVER
our tour seemed to turn into a mini personal tour since our family was the only ones in the van. We saw so much and enjoyed everything we say and heard about the city and how things worked and the history of the city. our Drive had so much knowledge and we did not miss a thing

You will not leave...
You will not leave hungry! Definitely got to try a large variety of donuts along the tour. We stopped at 4 shops total, and got to take some to go at the end which was perfect since we were pretty donuted out by the end. The tour was very well paced and learned some really neat things about Portland and various sites. The Portlandia statue was real highlight and something we would not have noticed on our own. The guides were really nice and curated a really good experience for the group. If you love donuts, definitely don't skip out on this!

Oregon Coast Rain or Shine!
We spent a wonderful day exploring Cannon Beach and the surrounding areas, including a great stop at the Tillamook Creamery.
What makes this experience truly special is the heart behind it—it is a father-and-son operation! Even though the Oregon coast gave us some very windy weather and light rain, our guide didn’t let it dampen the mood for a second. He was so incredibly knowledgeable about the history and biodiversity of Oregon. He was kind and upbeat, making sure we still saw the best sights and stayed comfortable despite the elements.
It was a beautiful, memorable day, and you can really feel how much they care about their guests. If you’re looking for a tour with a personal, local soul, this is definitely the one to book!

Beautiful setting...
Beautiful setting excellent service And the food was delicious. I proposed and the crew went above and beyond with champagne and a card signed by all crew members to commemorate the special occasion! Oh, and they finished it off with a love song for the two of us. I highly recommend this cruise. I would do it again in a heartbeat.

Book the Columbia River Gorge Waterfalls Tour
We went on the Full-Day Guided Oregon Coast and the Half Day Columbia River Gorge Waterfalls tours with Cameron. Cameron is friendly and super knowledgeable. You can tell he enjoys giving tours. We enjoyed both tours. Our favorite was the waterfall tour. Towards the end of the tour Cameron gives Portland restaurant recommendations. These are restaurants he has eaten at. Pay attention to this. Cameron recommends excellent restaurants.

Great experience!
We attended the happy hour. I went with my disabled mother who uses a walker. Everyone was super friendly and accommodating. The scariest part was the steep ramp to get down to the boat but everyone was super helpful. The narration was great and we learned about all the bridges and some city landmarks. The chicken nachos order was huge and delicious with plenty of cheese. And we ordered a pink zinger with the souvenir cup. Zinger was delicious but the cup is kinda plain and flimsy, nothing special. Service was super friendly. Everything was clean and the ac was nice and cool. They even have a cute gift shop on board. Absolutely loved the experience overall and would definitely love to come back again. We also love that it is family owned and operated.

Informative Tour of Portland
Our tour guide Gunner was a very knowledgeable and friendly man with a clear love of Portland. He took us all over the great city of Portland and showed us many of the highlights including architecture, food, history and pop culture. Comfortable ride in the van. Especially loved the Rose gardens, seeing all the varied beautiful neighborhoods and ice cream break! Thx for a great day.

Gotta do the tour!
Gunner was our driver today. Very informative about the city, the surroundings, the people and the history of Portland. We love taking the Viatour city tours. You learn so much about the town that you would not on your own. Gunner brought a very personal touch to the tour. Would definitely recommend this tour if you really want to get a hometown perspective of the city.
