You'll have plenty of time to smell the roses at the Rose City's most famous garden. Your expert guide will provide background on the sites and city history, while navigating through city traffic, so you don't have to. You'll meander through all of the major areas of inner Portland on both sides of the river while gaining views of 14 of Bridgetown's 29 notable bridges. Your guide will return you to your departure location at the end of the tour.
