What To Expect

Willamette Valley

Mount Hood

Mount Hood, called Wy'east by the Multnomah tribe, is a potentially active stratovolcano in the Cascade Volcanic Arc. It was formed by a subduction zone on the Pacific coast and rests in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States.

Sandy River

The Sandy River is a 56-mile tributary of the Columbia River in northwestern Oregon in the United States. The Sandy joins the Columbia about 14 miles upstream of Portland.

Mount Hood National Forest

Beacon Rock

Beacon Rock is the 57,000 year-old plug of relatively young cinder cone, now considered the most recent extrusion of the Boring Lava Field. The ice age Missoula Floods scored away the volcano's rubbly flanks, leaving a freestanding monolith that has become one of the most recognizable symbols of the Columbia River Gorge.

Multnomah Falls

Multnomah Falls is the most visited natural recreation site in the Pacific Northwest with more than 2 million stopping by each year to take in the views! Fed by underground springs from Larch Mountain, the flow over the falls varies, but is usually highest during winter and spring. This is also one of the best places in the Columbia River Gorge National Scenic Area to study geology exposed by floods.

Bridge of the Gods

The Bridge of the Gods is a steel truss cantilever bridge that spans the Columbia River between Cascade Locks, Oregon, and Washington state near North Bonneville.

Latourell Falls

Latourell Falls is a waterfall along the Columbia River Gorge in the U.S. state of Oregon, within Guy W. Talbot State Park. The Historic Columbia River Highway passes nearby, and at certain locations the Lower falls are visible from the road. From the air, it’s all visible.

Multnomah Falls

Vista House

Millions of people visit the Columbia River Gorge each year, and one of the most popular stops and view points is at Crown Point. On this tour, we fly past this popular landmark offering a unique vantage point of the cliffs that the Vista House sits atop.

Crown Point State Park

Envi Adventures

As Portland's only air tour up to Mount Hood, this seasonal flight is very popular and one of our favorites. Not only do you get an unobstructed view of Oregon's tallest mountain peak, BUT, you also fly back through the Columbia River Gorge past Multnomah Falls, Beacon Rock, and a number of other beautiful natural sights.

What a cool experience! Took my 2 children on a flight with Spencer - amazing! Not only was the scenery spectacular, but Spencer was a great host, guide, and pilot! I'll always remember listening to the excitement of my kids as we taxied down the runway and took off for an unforgettable flight!! Thanks for helping me make memories!!

Do not book this tour !! Envi adventures and Viator are the 2 worst companies I have ever dealt with and I travel a lot ! They are not accomadating and they will give you false information about your trip!

We’re sorry you feel this way, but it might be helpful to put why and how we are “the worst” into context. For starters, all of the information you need to know about any of our flights is listed on each listing; none of which is false information. When you book a flight, each listing requires the weight(s) of each passenger be provided and also includes a note that a group cannot exceed a certain weight. This information is important for weight and balance purposes on the airplane to make the flight safe and helps us calculate how much fuel is needed. With your booking, we only received the weight for one passenger which is what we planned for. When you arrived, there was more than one passenger and the total weight was obviously more than what we were provided and more than what we were safely and legally allowed to fly with. To accommodate this, we offered to split your group and take you on two separate flights so that the flights would be under the weight limit to which you declined. We are required by law to follow the weight restrictions for the safety of each flight and we’re not going to compromise safety for convenience. You’re request for a refund was denied for a couple of reasons: first, the lack of information provided to us by you to help us plan appropriately, and second, you didn’t want to split the flights as offered and requested to cancel the flight. We had already invested time and money in preparing your flights and per the cancellation policy, a cancellation within 24 hours is not valid for a refund, and your cancellation was within 24 hours. So, again, we are sorry, and if you’d like to come back and take the split flights as originally offered, you’re welcome to do that without any additional charges. Just send us an email and we’ll get that arranged for you.

Really fun and beautiful experience. Our pilot was super friendly and full of information. For those who might be hesitant due to motion sickness, it really isn’t that bad! I popped a Dramamine and felt fine the whole ride.
