Overview

On this exploration of city centre Portland, you will hear commentary on the history and culture of one of America's youngest port towns, as it changed from a forest, to wild-west “Stumptown,” to the vibrant city it is today.

View some of Portland's significant sites as you roll through Old Town, the Pearl District, the cultural district, and the government district. Roam the beautiful grounds of historic Pittock Mansion, and be stunned by the view of Mt. Hood.

Stop and smell the roses (over 300 varieties!) at picturesque International Rose Test Garden. Cross an iconic truss bridge to take in the view of the city from a lush east side park.

Your tour guide is a professional who enjoys showing visitors around town.
