Jeff was referred to us by another company we'd tried to book with but which couldn't accommodate us, and it ended up being a fun and excellent tour overall. Jeff is very knowledgeable about the winemaking industry in the Willamette valley and we enjoyed his stories involving its major players. Two of the three wineries we visited -- Rex Hill and Sokol Blosser-- were superb, as was the lunch stop (Trellis). We didn't care for the third winery (Four Graces). Overall a great time and would recommend.

Thank you for taking the time to post a review Adam. I'm glad you found it "fun and excellent tour overall". Sorry about the Four Graces tasting. I had not been there in a while and thought it might be worth a try. Best wishes, Guide, Jeff

Our family was in Portland for a wedding, and the bride was so thoughtful to set up this tour through the Columbia River Gorge for her guests. Jeff is an excellent guide and picked us up at our hotel. We were able to see Latourell, Multnomah, and Wakheena waterfalls; Bonneville Dam; and various scenic viewpoints. He provided interesting information and stories about the various points of interest, complete with visuals that we passed around in the shuttle. It was a great time and an efficient way to spend a morning if you're only visiting Portland for a few days and don't have a rental car.

Im not even into wine and it was a great time. Jeff is respectful and has plenty of knowledge. Learning all the different things ranging from soil types to how Willamette valley has changed. An overall good time. Would recommend to anyone.

Jeff (owner) provided an awesome tour of Mount Saint Helens. If you're interested in volcanos, geology, and the environment, this is the tour for you. It's a good value.

We had an excellent day with Jeff on his Columbia Gorge Waterfalls/Mount Hood loop tour! Jeff is very knowledgeable about the local history and the ecology of the Northwest. We had great stops to see the spectacular scenes of the Columbia River and Gorge. The day was capped off with a trip to the Timberline Lodge on Mt. Hood. The price was very reasonable, the van comfortable, the conversation and information perfect, and the timetable was prompt. I only wish we had more time in the area to take a Mt. St. Helens or Winery Tour with Jeff. Hopefully, we will have a chance to use Jeff again on our next trip to the area. I highly recommend EcoTours of Oregon and Jeff the owner/operator/guide! You won't be disappointed.

Thanks Jack. After a year off, it sure is nice to be back out showing off the beauty of the Northwest with guests again. Thanks for hiring me!
![eco tours oregon Photo of Priscilla L.](https://s3-media0.fl.yelpcdn.com/photo/Ae4Mo6TGx1Doz4y7cja99g/60s.jpg)
A long overdue review. Better late than never. First time traveling to the Oregon and Washington Area last year and we were scared of the fires up there. Jeff called us before the tour to confirm reservations and to let us know that the fires may alter the tour. We said we were okay. That was very nice of him to call. Jeff is the owner of EcoTours. I read about his tours from TripAdvisor and liked the tours he offered. There were two forest fires at Crater Lake and river Columbia Gorge. The alternative route we took to the old highway was really nice and first time Jeff discovered some local tiny waterfalls. Dog Creek Falls, a 25 feet tall waterfall in Central Gorge, Washington was nice because you could walk up to it and take a photo. The rest of route highlighted the nature and beauty and seeing the fish hatchery location was cool as well as we saw little pockets of fire between the trees in the mountains above. If you are a Steven King's fan then Timberline Lodge at Mt. Hood, you should go. My mom was super excited because this location was used for the exterior of the Overlook Hotel in The Shining movie. Jeff Davis is very personable, knowledgeable and friendly and knows a lot about the area. It was a fun, relaxing and easy going exploration of beautified scenery of Oregon and Washington, despite the fires and smoke around us. Next time if we are back in Oregon, I would love to try another tour and you should too!
Nov 8, 2018
Thanks Priscilla! Although the fires of 2017 made us alter our itineraries, things have settled down now. Glad you enjoyed yourself. Jeff

I was attending a scientific conference in Portland and we had the chance to get a tour of the incredible nature Oregon has to offer. Our tour guide was well informed, funny and interesting. He gave us a full picture of the history, ecology and human interaction with the region. It was a great experience!
May 16, 2018
Great to see this nice review. Thank you! It is even better to hear you were with the big Ocean Science Meeting & Conference.
![eco tours oregon Photo of Terrance P.](https://s3-media0.fl.yelpcdn.com/photo/i30LtipnxQVPyforzOP_BQ/60s.jpg)
I booked a tour of Mt. St. Helen's with Jeff for 6/3/17 weeks before. On the morning of, Jeff calls to warn that the weather had changed and that most likely we would not be able to see the mountain. He gave us a choice to continue or cancel with no charges. This is honest business practices at it's best. He could have easily not said anything and taken us, and we may have been bummed, but he didn't. This was a $500 loss to him but it's things like this that'll keep him successful. Thanks Jeff and we hope to see Mt. St. Helen some day on your tour.
Dec 18, 2017
Thanks Terrance, I would feel terrible with disappointed guests. Hope to see you when the weather improves!

We were only in Portland for a few days so we needed to make every minute count. JEFF at EcoTours truly made this happen. We did the all day Mt St Helens tour which was the highlight of our visit. We were picked up at our hotel right on time by Jeff in a comfortable van. He is amazingly knowledgeable about every aspect of Mt St Helens and the eruption. We stopped on site for great views and photos. He even brought and set up high power spotting scopes so we could see point of interest that we couldn't get near. He even spotted a herd of Elk on a hillside that we all took turns watching.

Our first time in Portland and we could not have had a better experience on our tour!...Jeff is extremely knowledgeable about the history of Oregon and has 29 years of experience doing tours! We originally were going to do a Mt. Saint Helens tour but Jeff advised that the weather was not great and visibility would not be good for that tour ...Jeff wanted to assure us a great experience so instead, we got a private tour of Portland including breathtaking views and an unforgettable experience!

One of the best kept secrets in Oregon is that there are traveling and resident California Gray Whales along the Central Oregon Coast from late March through November! The “Thar’ She Blows!” Whale watching tour is normally scheduled from 8 AM to 5:30 PM. Because we travel in small groups, options may be available to adjust our itinerary according to your wishes as the day progresses. The following is a sample itinerary.
8:00 AM: Pickup at your hotel or residence. Travel southwest from Portland through the picturesque farmland of the Willamette Valley, where many types of fruits, hazelnuts and flowers are grown. Pass through Oregon’s premier vineyard region, famous for its award-winning Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Pinot Gris wines. Link: Tour to The Coast
9:30 AM: Leaving the Willamette Valley, we’ll head into the Coast Mountain Range. During the drive to the coast, you will learn about the whales of the world, particularly about the California Gray Whales which we will be viewing up close from charter boats on the Pacific. We will stop for refreshments at the half-way point to the coast.
10:30 AM: Once at the coast, we’ll stop at a beautiful overlook to view the ocean from Siletz Bay. EcoTours carries 45-power spotting scopes on all tours in order to view wildlife such as the harbor seals and sea birds which sun and nest on the beach, offshore rocks and wildlife refuges of this area.
Links: Siletz Bay and Boiler Bay Park
11:00 AM: We’ll board a 45-foot charter boat and head out into the beautiful blue-green waters of the Pacific Ocean. Gray whales feed in rich offshore waters only 50-100 feet deep, so most of our viewing is done within two miles from shore.
EcoTours’ guests have seen whales 95%+ of the times we’ve been out on the ocean, so our chances of spotting whales are excellent! Seeing, hearing, and even smelling the huge spouts of these enormous mammals is a once-in-a-lifetime experience that you will never forget! When Gray Whales dive down deep for feeding on the ocean bottom, their tail flukes extend into the air in an incredible and photographic show of acrobatics. Link: Coast Views with whales
12:15 PM: After our exciting ocean-charter boat ride, you will be shown the restaurants in the area and will have time for lunch on your own.
1:20 PM: After lunch, we’ll take in the local sights. Stops will be made for pictures at beautiful state parks between Newport and Lincoln City. The sights include spectacular beaches, rocky coastal cliffs and fir-clad mountains. Our last stop will allow guests to take a short walk on a beautiful beach.
Link: Rocky Creek Park
3:30 PM: Leaving the Coast, we’ll begin our trip back. Socializing with our newly-formed friends makes the ride home enjoyable. The relaxing ride is scenic on the return also.
Link: Cape Foulweather
5:30 PM: Arrive back at your hotel or residence.
If notified in advance, tour options include:
A stop at the Oregon Coast Aquarium in Newport, as well as the Whale-Watching boat ride. Due to length of time needed at the Aquarium, the sightseeing stops will be limited.
Note: This Whale Watching tour is seasonal.
The best season is June through October. We can also see whales in migration in late December-early January and from April-May. Because small craft advisories can occur unexpectedly and EcoTours of Oregon places the highest priority on safety, on rare occasions we are only able do the sightseeing parts of the tour. On these occasions, the charter boat portion of your tour will be refunded in order to compensate for staying ashore. This is done in the interest of safety. If weather reports project bad weather the night before the tour, EcoTours will try to notify guests by phone in advance to give the option of not going on the tour.
The cost of the Whale Watching & Costal Sightseeing Tour is $159 per person. This includes door-to-door transportation, the charter boat ride, and the interpretive naturalist services of your ecotour guide. Group discounts available for 30+ guests.
