About this trip
Discover the dramatic landscapes and welcoming towns of the Pacific Northwest on this relaxed, scenic journey through Washington and Oregon. We begin with an elegant overnight in Walla Walla at the historic Marcus Whitman Hotel, followed by time to explore the town’s rich history and charming downtown. From there, we travel to Clarkston for a two-night stay and one of the tour’s signature highlights: Beamer’s Hells Canyon Jet Boat adventure through North America’s deepest river gorge. After taking in the canyon’s rugged beauty, we continue to Baker City for an evening at the beautifully restored Geiser Grand Hotel before journeying across Eastern Oregon’s wide-open spaces toward Bend.
Along the way, we’ll visit the colorful Painted Hills and the fascinating Thomas Condon Paleontology Center, then enjoy two comfortable nights in Bend with a visit to the High Desert Museum and a special evening under the stars at Pine Mountain Observatory. Our final scenic day takes us to breathtaking Crater Lake National Park, where we’ll enjoy sweeping views of its deep blue waters before traveling to Grants Pass for a relaxing last evening on the Rogue River. With comfortable pacing, thoughtfully chosen hotels, and memorable experiences each day, this OregonWest motorcoach tour showcases the best of the region in a warm, welcoming style.
