Stunning views!! - I was staying in Portland for just a few days with my wife and parents and was looking for a small trip outside to see some nature. This half day trip offers everything you need. Stunning views of the Columbia River Gorge, 4 waterfalls, and a guided tour. Mel did a great job explaining everything on the way! I wish I had more time so I would have gotten a full day tour! Thanks again Mel!
