Columbia Gorge Waterfalls & Wineries au départ de Portland : visite de l'après-midi tout compris
Description
Découvrez deux des plus grandes attractions du nord-ouest du Pacifique – les cascades de Columbia Gorge et les vins de l’Oregon ! Écoutez des récits étonnants qui se cachent sous la beauté pittoresque en admirant les falaises de basalte, les cascades élevées, les vignobles et les vergers qui définissent la région. Commencez votre après-midi le long de la puissante Columbia River, à observer les pygargues à tête blanche et les balbuzards en vous dirigeant vers les forêts verdoyantes de « Waterfall Alley ». Votre Guide vous offrira un point de vue naturaliste sur l’environnement moussu en serpentant autour de quelques-unes des 70 cascades qui drapent les falaises de la région. Alors que vous continuez vers l'est, les forêts humides de la côte nord-ouest du Pacifique cèdent la place au chêne de Garry, aux pins Ponderosa et à d'autres végétaux plus arides, créant ainsi des conditions idéales pour le raisin. Passez le reste de la journée à explorer le bassin fertile autour de Hood River, où vous dégusterez des vins de charme que l'on ne trouve qu'en Oregon. Découvrez comment les forces qui ont façonné ce paysage incroyable ont également fabriqué le vin dans votre verre.

This tour ended up being just my wife and I! Our tour guide Luke was amazing, very attentive he anticipated our every need/want. This was an amazing experience my wife and I are still talking about it a week later!
We had an awesome tour with Luke! We were celebrating a friend’s 40th birthday and were a group of seven ladies. Luke was such a gentleman, always helping us get in and out of the van and taking pictures. He also provided an amazing history and narrative of all the waterfalls we visited. He was attentive throughout the entire tour, and since he knew we loved berries, he even let us pick a few. When we got to the winery, he knew some of the orchards closed early, so he went and picked some Rainier and Bing cherries and brought them back for us. I mean, if that isn’t going above and beyond, I don’t know what is! He was kind, great listener, let us indulge in our music choices, and was simply a joy to be around. We all flew in from different places, and Luke was truly the highlight of the entire trip. Thank you so much, Luke, for being absolutely outstanding!
Great day! Luke was an excellent guide and the waterfalls and vineyard were so nice. Highly recommend!
We were picked up at our hotel right on time. We lucked out and only had two other people on our tour. Elijah, our guide, was so knowledgeable and nice! The Columbia River Gorge was gorgeous, we visited so many waterfalls. The original winery we were supposed to visit was unexpectedly closed, but Elijah had it resolved so fast, and we went to the most beautiful place, you would never know it wasn’t the original plan! The tour provided snacks and drinks, which was awesome since we happened to visit when it was 95°. It was so beautiful and it was great to be able to see all of the scenery without having to worry about driving. 5 stars, would recommend!
An absolute amazing experience and Luke is an absolutely wonderful guide you'll have a wonderful tour with.
Awesome! Great day with a great guide, Luke, learned some, laughed some! All in all just wonderful!!
Saw stunning waterfalls and the beauty of the gorge and river and the major mountains in the area. Learned about the history and fascinating geology of the area. Went to one winery, which was lovely and had some excellent wines. We were the only people on The trip so our experience was probably unusual; it fostered our interaction with our guide, who was personable and knowledgeable.
We had so much fun with Luke on this tour! He was such a great guide- we learned so much about Oregon and also had a great time hanging out with Luke and getting to know him! The waterfalls were amazing and the winery was so much fun!
Luke was a phenomenal tour guide. It ended up just being myself and my boyfriend on the tour that day, so we were able to do things kind of at our own pace. We saw many beautiful falls, and Luke was super informed about the local plants and landscape, including local legends. He also very kindly acted as our photographer. The wine at the winery was excellent, and having the tasting included in this tour made it so seamless and was a big reason we went with this tour compared to other ones. My boyfriend who is not even a big wine drinker even enjoyed his flight. Multnomah falls was breathtaking and it was so nice not to have to worry about the parking situation. I'd highly recommend this tour for anyone visiting Portland that wants to see some of Oregon's beautiful nature, waterfalls, and wine country.
We had a great waterfall and winery tour with Luke. He was very knowledgeable about the area and local history. He was also great to provide lots of other local recommendations for places to eat. Wy-East winery was very quaint and the wine was delicious. I would definitely recommend this tour and guide.
