Great overview of Portland with visits to iconic lighthouses. Friendly local tour guide sharing valuable local information.
Bland. You get visit a few sights and neighbourhoods. Not much history. Guide was nice and friendly but mostly just a driver. M .
The lighthouse tour was great way to learn the history and see a few lighthouses to boot. Our guide was Peter and he very informative on history and shared places to eat. Peter had humorous way of sharing Portland’s history. We had enjoyed morning and I would recommend this tour.

A wonderful and informative trip. Got to see the 3 lighthouses and also got a historical perspective of the city. It was a warm day so it was good to be in an AC vehicle. Billy our tour guide was passionate about Portland which is always good to see in a guide. He was well informed of the history of Portland and we had a most pleasant trip. Would recommend it to others!
We're so happy to hear that you had a good time with Billy on the Lighthouse Tour! His knowledge of Portland's rich maritime history is outmatched only by his desire to share it with others. Thanks for joining us, and we hope to see you again soon!
We really enjoyed our tour of three lighthouses and Joe was an excellent tour guide. There were 10 of us in our group, which was a nice size for the vehicle, and we really liked that we were able to include two lighthouses that were too small for our ship's tour buses to be able to visit.
We're glad to hear you had a good time with Joe on the Lighthouse Tour! His knowledge of the area and passion with sharing it with others is second to none, and we're happy to hear he showed the group a fun time. There's a lot more to explore around here so we hope to see you again sometime soon!
Fun trip! The headlight is amazing. Pete was a great guide. Very hot weather but nice to have A/C in the van.
Thank you so much for joining us on the Lighthouse Tour! We know how much Pete loves showing folks around and highlighting Portland's rich history and community, and we're glad to hear you had a good time on the tour. Hope to see you again sometime soon!
Seeing three lighthouses around Portland was absolutely amazing! This tour however was not really a tour, there was no talk about history or culture, as the link said. This was disappointing because we were really looking forward to it. This tour is truly a drive and drop to each lighthouse. If you have transportation- you can do it yourself. If you do not have transportation- then its helpful. The guide was nice, but truly a let down.
Thank you for the kind words about the lighthouses and the guide. We're sorry the tour didn't match what you expected. Our guides are trained to share ample historical and cultural context at each stop, so we're looking into this with the team. Our hope is to provide an exceptional experience that dives deep into Portland's history and culture, for folks both with and without transportation, and we'll use your feedback to make sure every guide is delivering the storytelling that's core to the experience. Thanks again for visiting, and we hope to see you again sometime soon.
Billy was very knowledgeable and friendly. The van was comfortable. We loved the lights houses. Over all a great trip. .

What a fantastic tour! Allie was an amazing tour guide, and her passion for the Portland community and our understanding of it was infectious. Great tour!!!
Thank you so much for sharing this! Alie has such a talent for welcoming folks into the area and sharing in Portland's rich history and community, and we're so glad to hear that you had a fun time on the tour. Hope to see you again sometime soon!
