This tour was the highlight of my trip! Daniel was knowledgeable and made the tour very easy. He even adjusted the itinerary for my husbands birthday and really made the day feel special, bonus points for being a great photographer! It was really nice to not worry about transportation between the stops and I loved all the historical and geologic information that was shared.

Everything about this tour was perfect. Our tour guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and very willing to modify our tour for our specific desires. The tour itself was very educational. The various water falls were amazing and beautiful. We highly recommend this tour.

This was a great, informative tour. Had a fantastic time and would highly recommend it. Dan was great to work with! He picked us up from our hotel and had a full route worked out. A little rain didn’t stop us and we had a wonderful meal at Bingham fish market which he recommended due to it being a local establishment. Right up our alley

I booked this tour for a stay in Oregon and was very happy I did. Our tour guide, Dan, was very personable and knowledgeable. He took his time telling us about all that we saw. He even changed our tour date due to rain so we would be able to enjoy it more. We saw a number of waterfalls as well as the Columbia Gorge. Well worth it.

We had fun with Dan! He is respectful, punctual and accommodating. He even made an extra stop for us! Not to mention, he was also our personal photographer. Above and beyond! See you tomorrow for another tour! Thank you, Dan!

What a wonderful half day spent on a private tour with Dan! I'm a photographer and dreamed about photographing fall colors in the Columbia River Gorge. Before the tour Dan made sure he understood exactly what I really hoped to capture. On the day of, we assessed where we wanted to go given the weather and lighting. Dan gave great advice on angles and view points and was always willing to use my iphone to grab some photos of me at each location. He arrived promptly and was keenly aware of the time as I had to be back in Portland for a flight out that night. Dan educated me on the geologic history of the area which I found so fascinating! He also presented me with a snack bag and bottled water. I can't wait to book with Dan the next time I'm in Portland and want to go on a tour! I highly recommend him!
