Why choose this Portland tour ?
Mt. Hood is the highest summit in Oregon. It features waterfalls, glaciers, and historic Timberline Lodge, built by local artisans during the Great Depression, and featuring the longest ski season in the US. To the north of Mt. Hood is the Hood River Valley and Columbia Gorge American Viticultural Area (AVA), the lovechild of the Columbia Valley and Willamette Valley AVAs. You will get intimate with this area through the opportunity to enjoy the local wine, cider, and beer, a visit to Timberline Lodge on Mt. Hood, and stops at Vista House and Multnomah Falls, the tallest waterfall in Oregon and most visited site in the Pacific Northwest. Your expert guide will teach you about the natural history, cultural history, and wine background of the area, as you drive the Mt. Hood and Historic Columbia River Highway Scenic Byways. You’ll visit 2 vineyards. We host lunch, and a glass of wine at one vineyard, *you cover beverages at a second vineyard, at your leisure*.
