I had a really wonderful time on my tour. We followed the Christmas Ships parade at night along the river and it was absolutely magical!!!! I was warm, felt very safe, and can’t believe the views we had. The location and parking were easy to find. Loved that there’s a bathroom on board too. Great if you are going solo, with another, or in a group.

Our family had a wonderful time on the Christmas Ship ride along cruise! Despite the weather, we were warm and covered- they even have heated blankets on the seats! The captains were so kind and welcoming and checked our comfort levels throughout the tour. There is also a bathroom on board which is awesome. A great activity if you have family in town or you’re just looking to start a new tradition. Thank you Portland River Tours!

We had a small group staying an extra day with an event we were hosting due to flights. This tour provided the group with a different view of the city. Because it is an intimate experience, we could ask questions. Captain Arnell was incredibly knowledgeable about the happenings in city as well as the history of the bridges. Our tour was mid-November and he provided blankets for warmth as well. 10/10 would recommend!!

We had such an amazing time with Captain Charles! He was super informative and shared interesting facts along the way, but also gave us time to just relax and take in the beautiful views. The boat was cozy and intimate, making the whole ride feel really special. Highly recommend this experience!!

Wonderful tour, with Captain Charles and Captain Dominic. We learned a lot about the history of Oregon city and all along the river. Beautiful views of all of the floating homes and the people who have made that area great. Once you get past Captain Charles’, since of humor… Ha ha …we had a great time and highly recommend. Punctual, courteous, Comfortable, communicative. Make sure you bring your own water and snacks if you wish.
