Astoria Travel Guides (Updated September 2026)

This was our 1st time using the Self- driving guide and we thoroughly enjoyed it. There was so much information we learned, sites we saw, inside stories we heard- that we wouldn’t have without it. It’s intuitive (knows if you did or didn’t take a suggested side excursion), well timed driving directions and now that our route is complete, we feel lost driving without our guide!!

Tour was fantastic. Tons of local charm and area history. Katie also had great recommendations for the rest of our time on the coast.

We did the all day tour from historic Astoria thru Seaside to absolutely stunning Cannon Beach and had a wonderful time! Katie explained a lot about each area and pointed out items of interest every where we went. I would describe our tour with Katie as having. A good friend show you around. She was very personable and kept the schedule flexible so we could add or takeout things we were interested in to make our trip more personal. One of our groups favorite activities was climbing the column and throwing the wooden airplane off at the top (fun!) If you’re looking for a tour in this area, whether it be the city of Astoria or the whole area make sure you pick this one! you’ll have a wonderful time… And learn a lot too!

It was a really memorable experience. I will remember that tour for the rest of my life.

Katie is AWESOME. She loves her town and that comes thru in the first minute.

Great fun, lots of interactions with the great people of Astoria. We cheated on some clues and used our iPhones to lookup location information. We were walking and the deal was more oriented towards people with cars so if you are walking you might want to do some preplanning. For example find the location of your first stop ahead of time.

After enjoying the Ultimate Scavenger Bellingham so much, we decided to do the one in Astoria. Just as much or more fun. Better yet, most of the places we wanted to visit were on the hunt. Hint: Send in pics and leave reviews earn points which equal free hunts. We hope to do the one in Bend, Oregon soon!

This tour was such a great way to learn more about the places we were passing along the Oregon Coast. We are based in Portland, so have been to the coast many times before, but still learned a lot from the self-guided tour. We only did the Newport to Florence section, but are excited to use this again anytime we are between Newport and Astoria!

Great voice and very personable! Interesting details provided. I liked that it connected to my location as I drove.

Great job with all the information and stops! Wish we had taken several days to explore the coast!

Tour of Astoria with Katie was awesome. First off we didn’t have to drive. Her knowledge of the area and history behind it made the experience even better. We saw more than we expected. Would highly recommend this tour.

Katie took us on a wonderful tour of Astoria. The kids and adults loved it ! The history of the area was fascinating.

Katie was very knowledgeable!!!! Showed us so many points of interest on the Oregon coast Had a wonderful charcuterie board for us after a short walk which was delicious.

We enjoyed exploring Astoria more in depth via this scavenger hunt. We have visited every year since I was a child and now bringing our own kids, it was cool to learn things we had never known about Astoria!

Visited areas we did not know about and glad we discovered.

This was a wonderful tour!! The highlight our trip to Astoria and the Oregon Coast. I’ve been on a lot of tours and Katie is one of the best, and most enjoyable, I’ve had.
