Visite de la ville de Portland, Oregon : parcs, places et vues

Aperçu
Learn the story of the Portland, Oregon while enjoying its highest and most intimate viewpoints, smelling roses, wandering through gardens, peaking into a forested park and sampling donuts.

After we pick you up at Director Park downtown, we’ll drive up the city's north/south dividing line, head to the summit of King’s Heights, and walk the grounds of the mansion built by a newspaper baron to the view that was once available only to the city’s elite.

We'll visit Washington Park, and walk through our favorite secret garden, and into the Rose Test Garden. In season, we'll smell the roses -- literally and figuratively!

Next: the city center and cultural district. It wouldn't be Portland without a stop for doughnuts, so we'll discuss the history of the city's foundation and the design of these blocks after we duck into one of our favorite shops and grab a treat.

We'll visit the South Waterfront, an inner Eastside neighborhood, and give you lots of foodie ideas before we drop you off!

40
Blocs de South Park
De là, nous retournerons dans le centre-ville, traversant ce que Portland appelle le quartier culturel - autrefois le cœur littéral de la ville, la ligne médiane le long de laquelle vivaient autrefois les marchands et les barons du bois, et maintenant des institutions comme le Portland Le musée d'art, la société historique de l'Oregon et l'université d'État de Portland dominent. Ce ne serait pas Portland sans un arrêt pour les beignets, alors nous discuterons de l'histoire de la fondation de la ville et de la conception de ces blocs après avoir pénétré dans l'un de nos magasins préférés et pris une friandise.

Director Park
We’ll pick you up in central downtown Portland at Director Park in one of our roomy vans. We’ll then drive up Portland’s north/south dividing line, pointing out important sites, including some of the city’s bike art, and historical buildings.
105
Powell's City of Books
We’ll pass Powell’s Books, and tell the story behind the biggest independent book store in the world
106
Pearl District
Learn about the history of this art and food rich neighborhood. (We do not stop to walk around in this neighborhood)
107
Pittock Mansion
Once we reach the summit of King’s Heights, we’ll walk around the grounds of the mansion built by a newspaper baron to the view that was once available only to the city’s elite. It's one of the best places to develop the context by which to experience this city. We'll take photos at the summit overlooking the city. We’ll walk through the mansion’s grounds and back to the van. (We will not visit the inside of the mansion.)
108
International Rose Test Garden
We'll learn about the story of the roses here and the rose city; we'll investigate our favorite varieties; we'll take photos and (in season) inhaling the scent of the roses, we'll get into the van for our next stop. (When roses aren't in season, we may make an alternative stop at the Hoyt Arboretum.)
109
Washington Park
we will drive into the SW Portland neighborhood of Arlington Heights, on the edge of Washington Park. Here we'll take a walk through our favorite secret garden, and into the International Rose Test Garden, introducing you to the story of the rose city. (When roses aren't in season, we may make an alternative stop at the Hoyt Arboretum.)
110
South Waterfront Park
TIME PERMITTING. After this, it's a drive along Portland's South Waterfront and the waterfront park, telling the story of the shining Swiss Alps-style engineering of the Aerial Tram and the development of this brand-new neighborhood and its beautiful, one-of-a-kind Tilikum Crossing bridge.
111
South Park Blocks
From here, we'll head back into the city center, driving through what Portland calls the cultural district -- once the literal heart of the city, the center line along which once the merchants and lumber barons lived, and now institutions like the Portland Art Museum, the Oregon Historical Society and Portland State University dominate. It wouldn't be Portland without a stop for doughnuts, so we'll discuss the history of the city's foundation and the design of these blocks after we duck into one of our favorite shops and grab a treat.

Sara was great, explained history & different areas of the city. I chose her trip because it was an overview drive tour to areas I wanted to see in a town I was not fully aware of. The day was warm, clear, balmy & on that day had opportunity to try a Sesame donut and tried a unique cold dish of Geoduck @ Southpark Restaurant at her suggestion. I like to see and try things different things outside of my usual routine. Thank you for a great event!

Portland is a beautiful city. I loved the many rivers and parks. The public transportation is amazing. I really also enjoyed walking the many neighborhoods.

Hi there Annie, I’m so glad you loved our city! I’m pretty sure you didn’t take our city tour because your photos look like they were taken from a different vantage point than our experience visits, but happy to see your great review for Portland’s walkability and ease of transit nonetheless :)

Pickup was right on time. Our guide, Sara, was knowledgeable, friendly, easy to understand, and flexible. We learned a lot about Portland and got to see some great sites. An excellent way to start off a visit to a city you don't know.
