Billeder af Portland City: Udsigter og nyheder (Vores mest solgte turné!)
Beskrivelse
Uanset om du er historieentusiast, naturelsker eller blot søger at udforske byens seværdigheder, lover denne tur en behagelig oversigt over Portlands unikke charme. Som du kører gennem historiske distrikter, vil din guide give fascinerende kommentar om Portlands udvikling fra en tæt skov, til robust pioner "Stumptown", til det livlige turistmål det er i dag. Et af højdepunkterne på turen er et besøg på de historiske Pittock Acres, hvor du kan beundre det smukke landskab og fange en storslået udsigt over Mt. En anden stop, der ikke må gå glip af, er den internationale Rose Test Garden, der er hjemsted for over 300 farverige sorter af roser, der tilbyder en sensorisk oplevelse i modsætning til nogen anden. Vi krydser Willamette River på en ikonisk bro, og derefter udforske unikke østlige steder elsket af lokalbefolkningen. Uanset ruten, vil du være vidne til både historiske og nye kvarterer, et vidnesbyrd om Portlands rige arv, arkitektonisk mangfoldighed og kontinuerlig udvikling.

Vi vil besøge grunden, høre historien og nyde den spektakulære udsigt.
Få en smag af Washington Park på vej til den internationale test Rose Garden. Washington Park har en zoo, skovbrugsmuseum, arboretum, japansk have, amfiteater, mindesmærker, bueskydning, tennisbaner, fodboldbane, picnic-områder, legepladser, offentlig kunst og mange hektar vild skov med miles af stier.
Lad os stoppe op og dufte til roserne - mere end 10.000, når de blomstrer! Selv uden for sæsonen er dette et smukt stop med en vidunderlig udsigt!
Gå gennem den gamle bydel på din rundtur i Portlands centrum, og hør historien om byens barske og omtumlede begyndelse.
Vi vil passere igennem og lære om Portlands berømte shoppingdistrikt samt Old Chinatown, det kulturelle distrikt og regeringsdistriktet.
Se den største boghandel i verden med cirka en million bøger.
Vi kører langs denne historiske park og hører den fascinerende historie om dens oprindelse.
(Eventuelt på rute, afhængigt af guide og vejr) En af tolv Portland broer, der krydser Willamette River, Hawthorne Bridge er en truss bro med en lodret elevator. Det er den ældste lodrette liftbro i drift i USA.
(Eventuelt på rute, afhængigt af guide og vejr) Dette er en anden placering med interessant historie og en fantastisk udsigt over byen.
(Eventuelt på rute, afhængigt af guide og vejr) Dette offbeat hotel i en restaureret 1915 grundskole. Quirky, håndværker dekoreret.
(Eventuelt på rute, afhængigt af guide og vejr) Navngivet på grund af den episke bro, der hæver over, er Cathedral Park fyldt med historie. Det menes at være en af de 14 Lewis og Clark landingssteder i Vancouver-Portland-området. Dette sted havde været en fiskeri og campingplads for mange indiske stammer i området. I 1931 blev St Johns Bridge bygget på stedet med 400-fods tårne og en hovedspænding på 1.207 fod. Det er den eneste stål suspension bro i Portland.

I found the tour to be very informative. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable about Portland. I thought it was a good value for the money.
Eric was great. Even though I had seen most of the sights, my family had not. Good info, fun facts. I have been to many of the eating places he recommended and he was spot on. Highly recommend even if you think you know Portland!
Thank you for the wonderful review! We’re glad Eric’s fun facts and local dining recommendations impressed even a longtime Portland visitor.
This was a small group in a van. Damon, our guide spent the whole 3+ hour tour giving us a history and current info on each of the Portland neighborhoods we traveled through or stopped at. We have lived in Portland suburbs for 50+years, but we don’t get into the city very often. This was a great tour for us to get reacquainted with Portland, and to see it from a tourist perspective. The other 4 people in our group were all from the east coast, and summer in Oregon is a nice break from the heat and humidity of their current weather. It would have been the perfect day for a Portland tour if not for the haze from wild fires. My spouse and I have taken a few tours this summer of “our city” and this was the best so far. Learned a lot, caught up on changes to the city, and loved that this tour covers all of the inner city and the burbs. This is the perfect time of year for tourists to see Portland. Thanks Damon.

Eric was a fantastic guide. So knowledgeable about all things Portland and especially food options. We got to a lot of locations all over the city so we knew where to go afterwards on our own. We liked the history and loved the Rose Gardens stop.
