AMAZING Tour! - AMAZING!! We are a family of 6 with all ages, from my 5 years old daughter to mother in law senior and I can’t say it enough- it was AMAZING. Peter was our tour guide and he was not only very friendly and welcoming but knowledgeable too. He knew about history, fauna, and everything there is to know. We had a great time, I am very happy I paid for this tour, well worth the money. Thank you for everything Peter, you are in our family vacation picture forever!!

Peter was a great tour guide. And he has the voice for it. - Peter was a great tour guide. And he has the voice for it. His small family run business uses a Ford econoline van on this tour and there was six people on the tour. Very knowledgeable about the geological history of the gorge and the flora and fauna of the area as well as all the waterfalls. Highly recommend it.

Beautiful views everywhere you looked! - Peter was the friendliest, sweetest, and most knowledgeable guide. He admitted he would talk a lot but he was a sponge of knowledge! About anything and everything and we loved it! The waterfalls were amazing! It is a beautiful area that should not be missed. I wore a T-shirt and shorts with white New Balance shoes and was fine. It was easy walking and plenty of bathrooms if necessary. This is an easy half day trip from Portland in a very roomy comfortable van with a small group. I would recommend it! Thank you Peter!

Unmissable experience! - This really was a superb experience and all the great things people are saying about Peter are true. We were lucky to be the only ones on this particular tour so we had him all to ourselves and pretty much bombarded him with questions, not that he needed any encouragement to tell us all about the area, point out different insects, birds and plants, and even play a couple of guessing games about characters involved in the history of this wonderful place. I would highly recommend this tour - it was definitely one of the highlights of our few days in Portland and an essential thing to do if you are in the area. If we make a return trip to Oregon we will definitely be taking one of his other tours. Thanks again Peter! Joy and Mark.

The Gorge Tour - Peter called before to confirm pickup. Was on time and then let loose with more knowledge than should be humanly possible. He was very informative and entertaining. I highly recommend his family’s tours. Well worth it.

Wonderful experience - We had Peter from Oregon tours on our day trip. His knowledge of the Columbia river gorge was extensive as he named many of the wildflower varieties we encountered along the trail to the various waterfalls. He also explained in great detail the formation of the Columbia river gorge which was very insightful. I would recommend this tour to anyone wanting to see the gorge.

💯 worthwhile experience with an awesome guide 👍 - These folks are great communicators. Everything from booking to pick up was seemless. Peter picked us up at our hotel and right from the start he was full of energy, engaging and a wealth of knowledge. Our tour was thoughtfully planned out. We got to see such beautiful sites. We loved every minute of this experience and will absolutely reach out to these folks the next time we are in Portland. Don’t hesitate to ask for dining recommendations. We had so much fun chatting about food during the drive time! Well done!
