“ Highly recommend using Sea to Summit to get from Portland to Mount Hood. The ride was affordable, clean, and comfortable. Shahn was easy to contact and made sure we were safe on the mountain. I would return to try Sea to Summit’s wine tours or coastal tours. “ ~ Sabrina C. Portland, Oregon
“ We had a great informative Mt Hood tour from Portland. Learned so much about salmon, history of the area and the building of the lodge at Mt Hood. Shipping some jam home from the fruit stand we stopped out so we were still enjoying the fruits of our trip. Fully recommend this tour. “ ~ Dana S. Seattle, WA
“ My husband and I opted for this tour because our rental car was not worthy of the trek up Mt. Hood to Timberline Lodge. We are so glad that we did! This Mt Hood tour from portland offered my husband the opportunity to enjoy the beautiful sites that I had seen during the week while he drove us. Our guide was very informative, but did not drone on forever. It was a very pleasant trip and one that I would recommend. “ ~ James S., Denver, CO
