Nice tour, weather and crew - I'm a national park traveler lover and I was looking for a stress-free driving to Crater Lake NP, I found Explore Souther Oregon information and the reviews were good. I really enjoyed the experience traveling with Jeri Kelly (tour guide and owner). She was very responsive from my first inquiry online about the service, she suggested places to stay, and the day tour was great. She's great in providing all the information and history about the park. I got the privilege to travel with other two solo travelers, at the end of the day we all built a Crater Lake bond. Jeri, the nice weather and the beautiful rainbow at the end of the day were great experience. I can't wait to travel again with Explore Souther Oregon or wherever Jeri is on charge of a tour!!.

AMAZING GUIDED DAY TOUR - We spent the first day on our own, but had arranged for a group tour the next. Turned out we were the only ones on the tour. Jeri was amazing! I can't imagine how the day could have been any better. Jeri was extremely knowledgeable and showed us things and areas we probably would not have seen on our own. Plenty of time for questions and felt as if we learned so much in that one 6 hour day. We highly recommend Jeri and CRATER LAKE DAY SHARED TOUR! Linda and Ralph

Truly, the only way to see Crater Lake - Wow, what a wonderful experience. Jeri provided our group of 4 a world class tour of Crater Lake. She shared tons of history and was so excited to share all her knowledge of the area and how the lake was formed. This tour is so much better than trying to tour the lake on your own.

Enjoy a Great Day at Crater Lake! - My wife and I made one of the BEST decisions of the summer by signing up for this tour. Our guide, Jeri, was one of the most informative, friendly and helpful persons, & we really enjoyed her company. It was nice to be able to look at all the sights without the responsibility of driving. We would do it again in a heartbeat! Jeri is a true professional at her job and you can tell she REALLY loves what she does. If you are looking for the BEST tour in the Crater Lake area, don't hesitate to take this tour. She also offers other trips, including Kayaking and hiking. The beauty of Crater Lake speaks for itself but a tour with Jeri and her wealth of information makes it a truly memorable experience!

Unforgettable Crater Lake tour with Jeri - Unforgettable Crater Lake tour with Jeri! Her knowledge of Crater Lake area amazed us. Tailoring the trip for the two of us, she shared details on wildflowers (at Vidae Falls), geological wonders, and lesser-known stops. Jeri's personal stories made it feel like a day out with a friend. Exploring hidden gems and Crate Lake viewpoints added excitement. A must for nature enthusiasts seeking a unique experience. Thanks, Jeri, for an enriching adventure!
