The goal of our group is to explore and experience the unique culture of Portland and the northwest. What makes us different is that we are very active with at least 20 events on the calendar per month. Most of the events are done on foot, but some are simply showing up at a particular destination for fun. Events include:

  • Dining and entertainment walks (highlighting great restaurants, happy hours, wine tastings and entertainment opportunities in the Portland area).
  • Narrated walking tours of Portland's neighborhoods (including inside tours of factories or other local businesses)
  • Meet the chef dinners (where we get the chance to talk to the chef about what makes their style unique)
  • Fitness walks
  • Random fun activities thrown in (Acrobatics class, Trampoline, Laser Tag, Scavenger hunts)
  • Day trips to explore nearby towns and activities available around Portland

And the best part is that you get to do all these events with other people who enjoy getting out as much as you do. Think of it as an "act locally" approach to tourism. About half the people at every event are new to the group, so you have the chance to build friendships with the regulars and experience the variety of newcomers.

Explanation of fees: 

$5 to drop in on a single event.

 $10 for all events in a one month period (from the date you pay)

Fees cover the cost of planning and providing over 20 guided events per month. Fees do not include admission to venues, which will be stated in the event posting.

I think if you compare this to a $20 monthly gym membership or guided tour, you will find that it is still an exceptional value. Plus there's no commitment to continuing your membership and there's no fee to belong to the group. You only pay if you attend events.

Example of monthly payment: If you come to your first event on the 22nd of a given month, 
your monthly membership fee is good until the 22nd of the next month.

Special offer: Only interested in evening fitness walks? If you pay for any event within 30 days of a fitness walk, you can attend that walk for free. You can take advantage of that by going on any fitness walk and paying $5 for the first one. For the next 30 days, all the fitness walks are free!

These walks are all labeled "Evening Walk" in the event calendar. 

Personal Tours:

Do you have family or friends visiting or just want to do a tour with a small group? I can help show off Portland through a personalized walking tour, or I can help you to plan a fun itinerary. Just contact me through the "Contact us" button on the left.
