What To Expect

Portland Oregon Sign

A famous Portland landmark that features an outline of the state and a white stag dear, this sign welcomes people from all over the world to Portland.

Crown Point State Park

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.

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

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.

Multnomah Falls

Beacon Rock State Park

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.

Bonneville Lock & Dam

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.

Highly recommend Envi and pilot JP. We kicked off 2025 with a beautiful flight up the Columbia River Gorge. JP is an excellent pilot. We appreciated his engaging explanation of what we were seeing. The size of the plane was perfect for this adventure.

We had an unbelievable adventure! We weren't sure what to expect, especially with a 7-year-old who is a little afraid to try new things, but John (our pilot) was incredible! He made everyone feel at ease and did a wonderful job showing us all the waterfalls (and even sea lions) on our journey. Highly recommend if you want a non-traditional way to see a beautiful section of the PNW.
