I booked a tour on Viator (the Mt Hood/Gorge Tour) with Sea to Summit, and I had booked the wrong date by accident. Even though it was a no-refund tour and Viator was adamant that I would not be refunded any amount, I reached out to the company. Joshua worked on it for days with Viator to get my money refunded (over Labor Day Weekend, no less). He was super communicative, and I was on the phone with him. Sounded like a very honest and professional person. I would use them next time I'm in town and need someone to take us on a tour. Top notch service.

Sea to Summit was very accommodating. I booked the full day trip including Mt Hood and Hood River. The group was originally too small, so Sea to Summit called other tour companies and added folks to ensure we could still make the trip. Our guide was incredible and had a deep knowledge of the land, indigenous people, and geology. I would have liked to explore Hood River or the Timberline for a bit longer, but we added an extra stop at a winery which made up for it. I took the tour alone, and was concerned I would be the only young person or queer person present. The group was mostly older, but we all had a really great time and the guide kept us engaged with his stories and his responses to our questions.

My husband and I opted for this tour because our rental car was not worthy of the trek up Mt. Hood to Timberline Lodge. We are so glad that we did! This trip offered my husband the opportunity to enjoy the beautiful sites that I had seen during the week while he drove us. Since we were there in January, it was important for him to watch the roads! In addition to the sites, Shawn? (Sean?) gave us the history of the sites as well. He was very informative, but did not drone on forever. It was a very pleasant trip and one that I would recommend.
