Tour description
Portland is the quirky, green and famously independent heart of Oregon, a city that loves its bridges, bookstores, breweries and 'keep Portland weird' spirit. Set on the Willamette River beneath distant mountains, it blends historic districts with a creative, eco-conscious culture. On this walking tour a local guide reveals its character.
You will gather at 'Portland's living room', wander historic Old Town and the famous Powell's bookstore quarter, and stroll the riverfront. Along the way you will hear about the city's history and its beloved eccentricities. Relaxed and characterful, Portland is a wonderful city to explore on foot.
