Despite the cold and blustery weather, Marcus regaled us with a bounty of knowledge about all things Portland. He ensured we got to see and hear about both the key tourist attractions and insider knowledge of the city. We have done bus tours of new cities and this is one of the best we have gone on. It was the right length of time, and allowed us to get to know all corners of the city and the cultural highlights. Definitely recommend this experience as part of your Portland visit. The sights combined with the attentive service and genuinely welcoming spirit Marcus brought to the tour are not to be missed.

The Discover Portland: Half day Small Group Tour was excellent, five stars !! The guide Marcus was extremely knowledgeable and never stopped filling us with facts and information. His Terran Travels new Mercedes Benz mini bus was extremely comfortable and perfectly clean. He planned the tour very well. Stops and toilet breaks were perfect. The tour totally exceeded our expectations. You will see the "whole" city, major points, scenic views, and all historic places. At the right time he offered everyone snacks and drink. My wife and I give this tour our highest rating. We strongly recommend you take this tour.

The view of Mt. Hood on a beautiful clear day from the Pittock Mansion was breathtaking..such a magical almost mystical view from there. Marcus our guide took his time and did a great job of describing downtown Portland and it unique history..job very well done..our next visit we will use his tour to take a tour of Mt. Saint Helens! I recommend using Marcus as your tour guide if youre coming to Portland!

We were in Portland for just one day. The tour looked as though it would show us an overview of the city and stops for a few photos. First our guide was about 10 minutes late due to the Pride parade which we totally understood. Brittany offered to extend our tour 10 minutes on the end of the tour which was reasonable for all of us. She was a skilled driver and took us to all the designated stops; however she didn’t seem to know much about the city. Her comments centered around things she was interested in. At the Pittock mansion when we asked who the Pittock family were she said “I’m not sure”. We truly enjoyed the roses at both the Pennisula park and the international test gardens which were in full bloom. Just disappointed that our guide wasn’t more knowledgeable and able to share the city’s history and growth over time.

Thank you for your feedback. My apologies that the tour was less than a 5-star. It was Brittany's first time guiding this tour on her own, and we have since corrected the deficiencies.

The tour was good. The guide was OK. At 9:05 I called Terran Travels to tell them there were 6 of us waiting. We were worried the tour was cancelled due to the small group. Luckily someone answered the call (it was Sunday morning), apologized for the delay and contacted the guide. Brittany arrived 10 minutes later. The tour covered the spots mentioned; Pittock Mansion and International Rose Garden were beautiful. We were expecting more information about Portland and the places visited, but the guide didn’t seem very knowledgeable and talked a lot about her interests.

We were a group of 3 and had an excellent time driving/walking around with Marcus. He was an excellent and knowledgeable tour guide. We learned a lot about the history of Portland, notable buildings, the MANY bridges and downtown Portland. We chose to do this tour on our first day so we could return to the spots we drove around and heard about during the tour. Recommend.

Marcus was our tour guide and he had our attention right away! This tour was much more than I expected. I’ve lived in PDX for 25 years and took visiting family on this tour. I saw and learned so many new things! Our visitors enjoyed every minute as well. You will be talking about what you saw for days. I have a whole list of new places I plan to go back and explore. Thanks Marcus for a fantastic day!!

Excellent city tour—lots of information about neighborhoods in Portland. Stops at original rose garden and current rose garden as well as the Pittock Mansion, it was a fun way to learn about Portland. Water and snacks were provided.

We couldn't have had a better introduction to Portland than the one we got from Taryn or Terran Tours. She was energetic, friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive. Our son has just moved to Portland and we were visiting so the idea of a tour made sense. We were so lucky to wind up with the small group being just us! We got to see so many of the neighborhoods and had a great time on the aerial tram, at the rose garden, and the Pittock mansion. The day was a little cloudy and cold, but the warmth we felt from Taryn more than made up for it. We would absolutey recommend her tour to anyone!

Tour operator gave us door to door pickup and return service from our Portland/Jantzen Beach hotel as well as for a downtown set of passengers that accompanied us. I'm sure they'll do the same for you. A call to confirm should put your mind at ease. The tour and operator were excellent!

Do you pick up from Park Lane Suites & Inn, 809 SW King Ave., Portland, OR 97205?
I am unable to enter this address as pick up address, when I am trying to checkout for reservations.
I was wondering if you offer historical tours of Portland for a group of approximately 30 people. We are looking to have a summer office event and would like to have a bus tour of approx. 2 hours long. Please contact me at 503-552-2165 Thanks, Patty Richmond
