Best Portland city tour - We had a wonderful city tour. Our guide Phil Sollers was top notch. He was so friendly, cheerful, and answered all our questions. He knows the history of the city as well as the culture, the arts, and current day issues. We loved it and would highly recommend!

Portland City Half-Day Tour - The friendliness of our guide, Phoebe…she was the sunshine despite the rain last Friday morning. I loved the bridges—esp. the ? St. John Bridge & the Rose Garden.

Excellent way to first experience the city!! - Angela was fantastic! She knew a great deal about Portland and was able to share great information about the different parts of town. The view from the Pittock mansion grounds was amazing.

Great Tour Company - CYCLE PORTLAND is a great bike vendor / tour operator to use. Even though I was the only one signed up for the two hour bike ride, they did not cancel the tour, which I thought was decent of them. Jaydon and Charlies were my tour guides, very informative, kept me safe, I enjoyed the loop ride around the river so much.

Great introduction to Portland - We really enjoyed this morning tour, and it gave us a great overview of Portland. Angela our tour guide was very welcoming and friendly. She provided interesting commentary as we drove around the city and was able to stop for photos and a closer look. The view from the Pittock mansion is not to be missed.

Entertaining and fun - Van picked me up from my hotel requiring me to do nothing except follow their time frame and instructions. Showed us interesting and historical aspects of Portland in entertaining way. Our stops at assorted places were timed well so we weren’t hanging around waiting. Lunch stop was wonderful. Only issue was tour guide talked a LOT about sports teams that were nonsensical to folks from other cities. Would recommend, though.

Portland city tour - Staying in the city centre gives the wrong impression of Portland. The tour highlights the beauty of the city that one cannot experience without local knowledge. I did find that there appeared to be a little too much driving in circles but we got to see so much and enjoyed the outing
