Efficient way to experience the falls.

Rhonda_H, Jul 2026
Our guide was a wealth of knowledge and made sure that we saw a lot of waterfalls with the best timing for avoiding crowds. It was a good way to see a lot without having to navigate driving and parking. Also, it was nice to have the pick up and drop off service. No rental car needed. We've concluded that tours are not our favorite way to see the sites because we prefer a less time constrained experience, but we wouldn't have been privy to the history our guide provided if we had gone on our own. That said, I would recommend the tour for the above mentioned reasons.

Response from Host, Jul 2026

Convenient 3-4 hour tour of Columbia Gorge and Falls

Mary_H, Jul 2026
This 3-4 hour tour is easy to book, convenient, and worth every penny. Tour guide picked us up at hotel's door step in a comfortable Mercedes passenger van. All five water falls were breathtaking. Vistas along scenic route were amazing. Our tour guide, John, was exceptional. He was so knowledgeable, sharing interesting facts on the area's history, geography, geology, fauna, flora, and more. We enjoyed his marvelous sense of humor, too. He was punctual and thoughtful. He watched out for our safety and convenience as we made our way up and down trails, and while driving through the city street, on freeways, and on the two-lane scenic byway. John, an A-class tour guide who I highly recommend. My three friends and I were very pleased with this tour.

It was an incredible...

Lauren_B, Jul 2026
It was an incredible journey. Our guide was incredibly knowledgable and so friendly! He pointed out all the bird hiding spots and was so helpful when I tripped and fell (my own clumsy fault, I was too busy looking out to look down at the ground). Thankfully the bus does have first aid supplies which I did not think to bring. They also had plenty of water for the journey which was great since it had been a crazy heat wave in the city that weekend. All in all, would definitely recommend this tour!

Response from Host, Jul 2026

Not To Be Missed

James_R, Jun 2026
Our driver, Gunner, did a great job of showing us an amazing array of gorgeous waterfalls .Just when you think you’ve seen the best, there’s another beauty just around the corner. Like Gunner, our favorite was Letourell’s, with its 230-foot free fall into the plunge pool at the bottom.

Awesome Tour!

Aaron_A, Jun 2026
Phoebe was an amazing tour guide. She picked us (and another family) up from our hotel and was right on time. Her sprinter van was very comfortable and we had plenty of room. She was very knowledgeable about Portland and the various waterfalls we visited. Best of all we didn't have to drive or find a place to park. Moreover she provided additional information we would not have known otherwise. I highly recommend this tour and Phoebe as a tour guide.
