Itinerary
Your premium passenger van departs bright and early from downtown Portland.
Your first stop is at Ecola State Park, where you can take in stunning views of the Oregon coastline.
Next up is Cannon Beach. Upon arrival, head to Haystack Rock, an enormous monolith that earned fame in the film "The Goonies." Walk all the way to Haystack’s base (if the tide is out), explore tide pools, and glimpse scurrying sea creatures. Enjoy lunch (own expense) in the town of Cannon Beach at your preferred local eatery.
After lunch, reboard your premium passenger van for a southbound tour along the famous coastal US Highway 101. Along the way, explore the unique beauty of the Oregon coast and stop at beautiful beaches and scenic overlooks. Admire the Pacific Ocean as it crashes along the cliffs, and visit other small towns that dot the coastline. Upon arriving at the Neahkahnie Overlook, keep a lookout for gray whales while gazing out into Tillamook Bay.
Afterward, one of your last stops is at Oswald West State Park.
Your tour concludes back at the starting point, in downtown Portland.

I really enjoyed this trip out to the coast with guide Daniel! He provided interesting anecdotes about Portland and was super knowledgeable about plants of the area along the coast. I’d definitely do another tour! In Cannon beach I ate at Driftwood at the bar and would recommend the salmon salad highly!

Aaron was our tour guide for our trip to the Oregon coast and he was great. He shared a lot of interesting information and history along the tour which throughly enjoyed. And as a solo traveler I felt very safe. I would definitely book a tour again and hope to get Aaron as a tour guide.
Roxanne_H, Jul 2026
This a a tour with beautiful sights. David our guide, was informative and adjusted the tour to get to the beach at low tide. The walks were not too difficult. David suggested places to eat in Cannon Beach. The seafood there was delicious. Highly recommend this tour.
Randy_S, Jul 2026
There’s more walking than anticipated. It was good but older people could struggle on the beach and trails.
Sharon_F, Jul 2026
Andy was a fantastic guide - he provided alot of Oregon history with beautiful landscapes and coast line.
Brian_A, Jul 2026
A stress free trip to the coast with a knowledgeable guide is the way to go. I recommend everyone should go at least once.
Mike_W, Jul 2026

Mark Retz is a fantastic tour guide. I had an amazing time during my Portland Coastal Tour. Mark is super knowledgeable, patient, and amazing at his job. I would highly recommend him for any tours in Portland. I learned so much about Portland from Mark.

This is a wonderful tour and excellent way to see the Oregon coast. Church was a great guide with lots of information and stories about Portland and the coastal areas. A must do experience if you’re in the Portland area.

It's a long day, but worth going into a beautiful area of Oregon. Our guide, Daniel, was great. Very knowledgeable.

We had a beautiful day. David was our tour guide. Knowledgeable, and easy going. If you haven't been to the Pacific Northwest, this a great tour to see the beautiful coast line.
Anne_A, Jun 2026
Great guide )Andy). Very personable and relatable. He really knows the Oregon coast. He tools us on a couple of “extra stops” that were delightful.
The van is brand new and very comfortable. It even has USB ports for charging phones.
I highly recommend this tour.

A wonderful day. Patrick our guide was very informative friendly and entertaining. The weather was mostly with us and we had some gorgeous views. Would very much recommend this tour to anyone.
Yasser_S, Jun 2026
Aaron was so knowledgable and I learned so much along the way. The route we took was perfect and so gorgeous. So much nostalgia for me seeing where the Goonies rode their bikes, the hill and of course the rock. Had the best time.
Sonya_S, Jun 2026
Our first time in OR we decided to explore the area by booking some Viator tours. The coast tour was amazing. Our guide Eric took such great care of us. I can’t imagine having a better experience visiting Ecola park, Canon beach, Sandy beach and everything in between.
Rozelle_G, Jun 2026
Mel was a great tour guide with amazing insight about the trip! It was lovely to sit back and enjoy the beautiful coast of Oregon.
Kristine_A, Jun 2026
Great tour, my family loved it. We had an amazing tour guide Patric. Thank you willdwood adventures!!!
Jalisa_R, Jun 2026
The destination was everything that I expected and more. The tour guide was not that great. She was silent for the majority of the tour. She shared nothing or very little about the surrounding areas that we passed through or visited. She was not very informative or engaging. She was polite and seemed kind. However, she was not an active guide. She also never walked with us or made herself present at any of the destinations.
Response from Host, Jun 2026
Thank you for the valuable feedback, Jalisa.
We apologize that your Coast trip wasn't up to our standards. We will check in with the guide to address the feedback you presented.
Thank you for touring with us!
Joseph_S, Jun 2026
This tour was a very pleasant and thorough introduction to the Oregon coastline, particularly the most charming and scenic spots of the Northern Oregon coast. David was a personable and knowledgeable guide. His enthusiasm for the area was infectious and much appreciated! Highly recommended!!
Chelsea_M, Jun 2026
You were able to see lots on the coast with multiple stops. All the the sights were breathtaking and pictures 100% won’t do the justice. Patrick was very knowledgeable and had some fun stories he shared a long the way. Plus he has the perfect radio voice so he was fun to listen to! I would absolutely recommend this trip for others.
Gregory_C, Jun 2026
Our guide Dave was very knowledgeable and the scenery was just amazing! I would highly recommend this tour to see the beautiful Oregon coast!
Virginia_N, Jun 2026
Amazing all day tour! We hit all the spots and our guide Dave was top notch!! The van was comfortable as well
Brisa_C, Jun 2026
Informational and fun, definitely will be doing a future trip with Aaron. He has so much knowledge and passion over the wildlife, definitely contagious!
Marilou_M, Jun 2026
The Ecola State Park and the Cannon Beach were my favorite. The experience is so serene. Mel is nice and shared information on some of the places that we passed by. She even described and named the different kind of trees that we are about to see as we trek our way to the sandy beach.
Marion_B, Jun 2026
Our tour was great! It was unexpectedly very rainy but Mel still made sure we had a great time. We would recommend it to any visitors of Portland.
Jaya_P, Jun 2026
Scenic tour. Takes you to beautiful beaches around the coast. Aaron(?) our guide was very knowledgeable and provided the interesting history of the historic points. Worth taking this tour. We were kept on time and were provided with great tips of coffee and eating places too.
