Description:

Portland is recognized by many as one of the best places to live in the US. Find out why as your entertaining guide leads you from downtown to the waterfront, through city parks and neighborhoods rich with artwork, skateboard lanes, and 11 bridges.

Livability and sustainability are key words in this urban landscape. Discover how the city was planned around, and for the people as your guide points out many alternative forms of transportation and custom lanes for non-motorists. 80% of Portlanders live within half-mile (0.8 km) of a park. Walk through many of these green spaces, including Mills End Park—one of the smallest parks in the world.

Art is an integral part of the urban space and the massive copper Portlandia statue—the second-largest of its kind in the US, after the Statue of Liberty—is one of the highlights. Learn about modern Portland as well as the city’s early days as your guide shares stories, facts, and points of interest.
