Ri and Follow me Tours is a hidden gem!…read more I just came back from my first ever trip to Portland and I'm still reeling. It was FANTASTIC, and the best part of all was my decision to tour with Ri at Follow Me Tours! We went all over the city, saw every neighborhood, and learned fun tidbits of information along the way. Besides getting a lay of the land, we also toured the Columbia River Gorge, Vista House, Latourell Falls, Multnomah Falls and lodge. We did this on our first day in town and it was a perfect way to start our trip. This tour was spectacular, can't be missed. We also scootoured (toured by scooter) the oldest cemetery in Portland which was definitely a highlight of the trip. I never thought I'd love to scooter so much. Those things are fun! I definitely recommend Ri for first timers to Portland, or if you're a local or have been many times and want a fun, new perspective. What I love most about Ri as a tour guide is that she has this incredibly energy and enthusiasm for life. Her facts about Portland were interesting and not dull or cheesy like other tour guides often do. She genuinely cares about making your trip special and is willing to work with your needs to make your trip your own. Amazing experience. Thank you, Ri, for the best time ever!

I left one review on Trip Advisor but not everyone uses that so I wanted to leave a review on here…read moreas well! That's how amazing it was! My mom and I had SO MUCH FUN on this Segway tour. Probably because our guide, Christopher, was AMAZING! I cannot rave about him enough! He took us around Portland and showed us the different areas. His energy and personality was so great, he really made the tour as much fun as possible. He even let us have a pit stop to Blue Star Donuts, which was a nice little break! The Segways were super easy to use and Christopher was a great teacher and made sure everyone felt comfortable at all times. I was very nervous at first but after a couple of turns I felt like a pro! (Kind of, I may have let out mini screams coming off of the sidewalks lol). We had a fairly small group, there was about 7 of us. I highly recommend this excursion and if you can book with Christopher, you won't regret it!!! Pro tip: PLEASE TIP YOUR TOUR GUIDE!!!! Bring some cash and make it rain! This is their livelihood so don't be a cheapskate!

Then to the park blocks, up towards JenWeld park, through the Pearl and China town then old town, all while giving you historical information about the city. I was nervous for the first 5 minutes of waiting for my riders lesson, but was comfortable the second I stepped onto my "Mall Cop" mobile. 13 mph seems slow, until you're whipping around on city streets at that pace. Once you get going though, you get a total feel of Badassness. If there is such a thing...on a Segway. I would recommend the Portland Segway tour to anyone - in the summertime - with a Bucket List.

Our group of people got a little annoying after a while, we had a few criers (which is what happens when you give females alcohol during a breakup) but I had so much fun, I recommend bringing your own group of friends and setting up plans to eat somewhere nearby following the events. 5 stars for getting everything out of the tour I had expected!

I will admit that if I hadn't been traveling with 40 extremely loud and obnoxious people on my tour I would have probably enjoyed it much more. So do keep that in mind when booking this tour. If you are a 20-something person looking to get drunk and don't care at all about the types of beer you are drinking it's totally for you. If you are interested in learning more about beer and doing some different tastings while actually learning a bit about the brewing process, you might want to look elsewhere. Unfortunately, my experience was tarnished by super loud and drunk people chanting a bus driver's name while the guide was quietly trying to talk about the beers we had tried at each brewery. We didn't really hear much about the beers we were trying except for at the first brewery. Some of us actually left while at the third brewery because it was becoming a circus. At one point, after only 2 breweries, 20 very drunk guys plowed into a brewery bathroom at once and I believe one tried to pee in the same urinal as my husband at the same time. Not really what I expected to pay $90 for... Again, I think it all depends on who is also traveling on the tour with you, so it's a real crap shoot, but for the money, I would try a different experience.

I'm a water girl in a water family so this is our kind of park. A sportsman's park with beautiful views of the Willamette River and a boat ramp to launch your craft. There is a medium sized grassy area with a few trees and a covered shelter with a view of the Willamette Falls in the distance. Nice bathroom facilities and covered parking under the Abernethy Bridge. Not many other amenities (no play structure). This small park is just south of Clackamette Park, which gets a lot more use. This park is a little more hidden and is only marred by traffic noise from I-205. Due to its size, better for family picnics and small gatherings. I initially discovered it a few years ago because it is the launch site for the Willamette Jet Boat as part of the Willamette Falls Festival. Nicely maintained by Oregon City, it is a great use of the space.

Except for the noise of the cars overhead, this is an ideal spot to eat lunch and read. There is a covered area where you can also get in out of the elements or there are benches to sit with a view of the river. And after lunch there are always clean restrooms to go wash up. But best of all is the walk way down to the floating dock on the river. I've occasionally even taken my lawn chair and lunch down and sat on the pier to get an up close and personal view of passing boaters and anglers.

I like…read morehow they also do a toast after the ride and a small speech about the history of hot air balloons. -*: However, their advertising instagram page is a little misleading. We booked for the shared tulip rides: but somehow 2 out of the 3 total hot air balloons( such as the one we were in) did not go through the tulip fields that are blooming. Only 1 hot air balloons did the route as what they presented in social media. We ended up just looking far from a distance and only floated over the green tulip fields that haven't boom yet. A little disappointed there and felt like their instagram page is misleading where the hot air balloons are all portrayed floating on the tulips. In reality, only 1 out of 3 hot air balloons will get the view. Also, after the ride, they will ask you to help them put back the hot air balloon equipment. From my previous hot air balloon company experience such as in Napa, none of us were expected to do the heavy and cleanup work. if I had to pay for a service and on top of tipping, I don't expect myself to do the grunt work, especially not in the wet mud. It's like expecting myself to clean up the plates after eating at a fine dining restaurant and tipping. They should definitely hire more helpers or have better cleanup equipments. Overall, I still enjoyed the ride. It just did not meet the expectations of paying 250/pp and how it advertised online.

The wineries she chose all had a different flair and had unique stories. As we are not knowledgeable about Pinot Noir, Helen was a wealth of information. Not only did we learn about Pinot Noir but she also gave me some baking tips. She had prepared our lunch and the cookies she made were fantastic! (She has a background in the restaurant business.) Our tour was in July and, of course, the wine would not be shipped by Cellar Door or the winery until October. Both shipments arrived promptly in October as promised! We highly recommend Cellar Door Wine Tours. Oh, and our wines seem even more delicious at home.
