Vista View Scenic Flight
The redundantly named Vista View adventure is the perfect introductory aerial experience that gives you a great taste of the beauty of the Columbia River Gorge. This quick but equally fun flight heads east through the Gorge to the Vista House viewpoint atop of Crown Point where we give you the best view possible. If you want to go longer, ask your pilot and he'll give you a deal! You won't regret it.

Portland City Tour
Our Portland City Tour will introduce you to the great sights and culture of the city of Portland. What was once a town simply used as a stopping point between Fort Vancouver and Oregon City (the end-destination of the Oregon Trail!), Portland has become the largest city in Oregon, as well as recognized as one of the most environmentally conscious cities in the world!
The city has a lovely blend of historic and modern architecture and many lush parks to poke your toes into; Forest Park and Washington Park in the hills west of Downtown offer a variety of plants, trails, and wildlife near the city. Vistas of Mt. Hood and the Willamette River, stately Douglas Fir trees, and roses and trees at every turn give the city stunning seasonal color. Environmentally friendly practices, such as recycling and an extensive (though not as well-serviced as it was in the recent past) public transportation system, are part of the culture here and fuel many progressive city planning practices, such as an urban growth boundary, which have made Portland a relatively compact city. Unlike most similar-sized metropolitan areas in the country, you can drive 15 mi (24 km) from downtown and be out in the countryside.
Highlights
