Very fun! - The tour was really good. Fun guides and really good information. The only thing that was a little tough was the seating, it was hard to see what was behind us.

Great way to get a feel for Portland! - Guide was informative and fun! Knew lots of interesting facts about Portland and answered questions knowledgeably. Took about an hour in a cool old fire truck. Small groups only so make reservations.

Fun tour is both open air, but with sunshade canopy! - Good one hour tour! It’s great to have a vehicle that is both open air for great breeze as you drive around, but also a canopy to shade from the direct sun. Narration was very informative, smooth and professional, with a big screen TV used for a slide show presentation. Worth the reasonable price! Book it! :)

Fun tour around the city - Fun tour. You ride in the back of a vintage fire truck. Driver and guide were great. Reminded me of riding in the back of a USMC 5-ton. More of a focus on springs than shocks. It was great to learn the fire history and some other interesting facts about Portland.
