Beautiful scenery and dramatic views. This trip is a MUST if you have the time during your trip to Portland. Phoebe the guide was great and very knowledgeable about all the places that we visited.

I highly recommend this tour! It was wonderful. I was traveling to Oregon by myself over a weekend and looking for fun activities to do in a group while in a relatively controlled environment. This was one of the only tours that were available for solo travelers, so I booked it asap. I'm so glad I did! Kira, our guide, was knowledgeable, welcoming, fun, and cool overall. She is also a very skilled driver, which was helpful in the rain we had that day. The van was clean and the rest stops were nice. In fact, I went on 2 consecutive tours with this company and found the whole team to be responsive and considerate. The scenery was gorgeous--so relaxing and definitely worth the cost! My group was small and friendly, and we helped each other out with pictures, travel tips, etc. I ended up bonding and clicking with a fellow solo traveler on my tour and afterward we went to do more sightseeing, which was an unexpected win. This was an awesome, 5-star tour. And now I have a friend in Ireland!

Full description

Marvel at Oregon's scenic grandeur as you enjoy dramatic views of its coastline which may include: Cannon Beach, Haystack Rock, Short Sand Beach at Oswald West State Park, Neahkahnie Point and Manzanita while enjoying spectacular views of the dramatic Oregon Coastline and of course the majestic Pacific Ocean. This escorted mini-bus tour, with stops at attractions, runs approximately 8 hours from pick-up to return.

Neahkahnie Point: From this spot you look south past Nehalem Bay to Cape Meares and Cape Lookout nearly 30 miles away. With a huge expanse of ocean before you, this is one of the coast’s best whale watching locations.

Short Sand Beach/Oswald West State Park: Stretching along four miles of coastline in dense, temperate rainforest, Oswald West State Park has a beautifully secluded sandy beach and miles of trails leading to breathtaking views of the Pacific Ocean. This vast, scenic treasure is without a doubt one of the most spectacular parks in Oregon.

Cannon Beach: This picturesque small-town village by the sea is easily walkable and you will be able to explore meandering pathways, enjoy public art and courtyards spilling over with flowers. Historic Haystack Rock is one of Oregon’s most recognizable landmarks, home to colorful tidepools and diverse bird life. It rises 235 feet from the edge of the shoreline. No visit to Cannon Beach would be complete without visiting Ecola State Park, perched dramatically on the edge of Tillamook Head.

From Manzanita to Cannon Beach enjoy the dramatic beauty, fascinating history and diverse ecology featured on this Oregon coastal tour.
