Book it! Carrie, our tour guide, was awesome!!! Great pace, beautiful sights, no worries about parking your personal vehicle, but most importantly, great information and Carrie has an awesome personality. 5/5 stars. I feel my group would not have enjoyed and appreciated the water falls and the “Fancy Bathroom” without Carrie’s insights.

Carrie did an outstanding job of making this tour fun and interesting. She was knowledgeable on different types of waterfalls, history of the area & a variety of other subjects like flora and fauna in the area of the waterfalls. She even got me to try wood sorrel. It tasted like a green apple 😋 I highly recommend taking the Multnomah Falls & Columbia River Gorge half day tour.

Luke was simply one of the finest tour guides I’ve ever had, and I’ve been on a lot of tours. He was a master of his craft—calm, deliberate, and tactful. Extremely competent and knowledgeable.The tour itself was wonderful. We felt like we really got a taste of Oregon’s natural beauty. The winery had great wines and food, and even better views.We stayed in Portland and spent most of our time in the city, so we wanted to venture out and see some nature. This tour fit the bill perfectly. 100% recommend.

Phoebe was a great guide that was friendly and informative. She answered all the questions we had and told us all about the various waterfalls, the creation of the gorge itself, and the creation of the road we traveled on to see the various falls.We were picked up straight from our hotel making the tour very convenient and a great value. The parking spaces were full at several of the lots when we arrived making us glad we hadn’t driven ourselves.

This is a great condensed trip to see the major sites outside Portland. Learn the history of the area. Not break a sweat or dirty a white shoe while getting to several top rated falls and look out points. Worth the money. John our guild was very good with the history and the folk lore as well as some sad parts about recent fires that hurt the region.

My friend and I had an amazing time on our tour! John was an excellent tour guide who provided us with a lot of information about the falls, the areas that we visited, and the history. We had plenty of time to explore and to take pictures. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone who is considering it! The views were breathtaking.

Our guide Oscar was a great guide. He was attentive, knowledgeable and a great driver. He gave us ample time to enjoy each site we visited but kept us on schedule. We loved each place on the itinerary and saw multiple whales on the whale watching portion of the tour. The drive on Hwy 101 was amazing.
