Overview

As you drive through Portland’s historic districts, your guide will share how “Stumptown” evolved from dense forest to frontier town to today’s vibrant destination. Visit Pittock Acres for a stunning view of Mt. Hood and the International Rose Test Garden, home to 300+ colorful varieties. Cross an iconic bridge to explore east side locations beloved by locals.

After lunch, travel the historic highway through the Columbia River Gorge. Experience the awe of Multnomah Falls, where twin cascades invite you to feel the mist as you cross a stone bridge. Discover the rustic charm of a historic inn among old-growth trees.

A serene forest walk leads to Latourell Falls, plunging past cloud basalt in a dazzling display of nature’s power. Additional waterfalls and viewpoints will follow, chosen based on weather conditions.

Throughout the day, your guide brings both city and wilderness to life with stories, legends, and insights into Oregon’s culture, history, and natural wonders.
