Our guide was Victoria and she was truly a GREAT history/story teller! She is why there's 4 stars. Why not 5 stars? We were not expecting all the distractions that downtown Portland brings, but should've known better. Clubs, loud people, individuals wandering who joined the tour without paying and asking us questions, the houseless asking us for money, etc. etc. It was a Saturday night. If you're aware of these things ahead of time, you'll be better prepared. We were never scared, just distracted.
The experience overall, great! I am a born and raised Portland gal. The history we all learned was truly very cool. Our guide spoke loud enough we heard most of what she shared. She answered questions, shared a recent EVP, we rented an EMF (electromagnet fields) detector and it lit up several times, kinda cool. We didn't experience anything paranormal, or capture anything on film but it was still a very cool experience. We were a party of 6 and celebrated a birthday doing this tour. Thanks for the history lesson and a fun time!
