Vista House

Nestled atop a picturesque perch in the Columbia River Gorge, lies Vista House – a true stunner that boasts of the most jaw-dropping views in the region. Known as the “Crown Jewel of the Columbia River Gorge,” Vista House was crafted between 1916 and 1918 as a tribute to Oregon’s brave pioneers and as a haven for travelers on the newly minted Historic Columbia River Highway. With its intricate sandstone masonry, opulent marble, and sparkling amber-green art glass windows, Vista House is a dazzling beauty.

    This is the Mt Hood loop! We get to see Mt Hood from all directions and up close! From vantage point to vantage point, Multnomah Falls, Bridges of the Gods, Hood River downtown (lunch), and Timberline Lodge are lined up nicely! The guide is a true professional. John, the stories and experience u shared in the van connected everything together seamlessly. Told u the weather’d be nice. :)

    The tour was awesome and provided an amazing experience of so many Mt. Hood+ highlights for people with limited time in the area and desire to see as much as possible. It was unforgettable, truly. Garrett was amazing. Between his communication before, during, and at the conclusion of the tour, his knowledge and enthusiasm for the area, and efficiency is keeping the tour group moving, this dude provided a stellar experience.

  • Best experience for our first time

    Garrett was our tour guide. Amazing experience. We stopped at so many places along the way. It's worth the whole day trip. I appreciated the communication and texts. The worth is priceless for the experiences. We had a small group, so it was personable. It wasn't just talking; we experienced a lot of things.

    Our trip with Zach to tour the Falls & Mt Hood with spectacular scenery and informative while being entertaining. Zach took us to his favorite sites and gave us ample time to enjoy the sites and offered to take our photos at the best views. Zach was a great host driver. Totally enjoyed the day with our friends & new acquaintances.

    This day trip was a great way to experience a lot of the area’s highlights in a small amount of time. The guide, John, did a wonderful job of explaining what we were seeing. We were on and off the van numerous times to gaze out at overlooks of the Columbia River, and for me, the highlights were Multnomah Falls and Timberline Lodge - with snow! I wish we had more time in Hood River though.

  • Wonderful day!!

    This was a great trip and well worth taking. We had a total of eight folks in our van and we were all picked up at our four different hotels. Our guide was John and he was super friendly and full of fun facts about the area. Took us to see all the places listed plus added in a few more that we really enjoyed. We were particularly happy to not be driving in the Friday afternoon traffic into Portland! Great way to see the gorge and Mt. Hood!

  • Accidental private tour!!

    We got extremely lucky and accidentally got a private tour because some people cancelled last minute! Our tour guide, John, was great. He shared so much knowledge with us throughout the entire trip and was able to answer any questions we had. During the tour he kept making sure we were good and provided us with water bottles. At each stop you’re welcome to venture out and for lunch, John gave us some great suggestions. I believe the tour wasn’t too hard on the body, the guide drops you off very close to the locations and, again, you decide whether or not to venture out during the stops. During our trip Mt. Hood was covered most of the time but John made it a priority to point it out any time she poked out and also gave us some warning when we would pass by a small, hidden waterfall to get some pictures. I want to go back already!

    We saw one waterfall, stopped at multiple locations for beautiful views, and the lunch stop was in a good location with options to fit everyone. I loved the small group size, and there were no issues with the van. The guide was nice and knowledgeable.
