Your Itinerary

Oregon Health & Science University

OHSU is Portland's biggest employer and an architectural marvel, perched as it is on top of a tall, narrow peak of the Tualatin mountains. Thanks to its dedication to patient well-being, the teaching hospital and research facility is packed with art, some of which we'll experience before boarding the tram.

South Waterfront Lower Tram Terminal

From the top to the bottom, the Aerial Tram is a quick ride; we'll take our time at the top and then descend down together to the Lower Tram Terminal. Here, we'll learn more about why the tram was installed at OHSU, and what it means to the city and its visitors.

South Waterfront Park

We'll pass through the South Waterfront neighborhood (with more doughnuts nearby!)

Tilikum Crossing

(Pass by)

We'll introduce you our favorite bridge, the Tilikum; and learn why it came to be here, and what makes it so special (and, at its launch, controversial).

Excellent experience.Basically a private tour since my sister and I were the only 2 people going that day! Sarah the tour guide was great-very knowledgeable and friendly.The views on the tram ride and especially from the top from the hospital were amazing-you could see for miles!Add in a great cup of coffee and 1 of the best donuts I have ever had and it made for a great way to start the day! Highly recommend!

We were lucky to take the tour on a beautiful day; we were picked up in the center of the city in the dark and taken up to the top of OHSU while the sun lit the sky. Word to the wise, the raspberry cream cheese donut is the bomb! Lizzy and Sara were so sweet, and they knew everything about the city; in a few hours, we learned so much more than we had in our whole previous two visits to the city. Thank you for a perfect morning!

This was such a great experience, especially for being my first time in Portland. It wasn’t all the tourist spots, but more personal views of the city and it was just incredible. The donuts were delicious! And the people were just so sweet. Beyond informative and extremely welcoming to the city of Portland.

Very disappointed. Weather aside, it was very much a RIP off. If you want to ride this tram, its $5. Don't waste your time on this $45 tour. No cool sites. 1 donut and 1/2 cup coffee.

Sarah and Edwin were great tour guides and their enthusiasm and friendliness were evident! This is a must-do in Portland!

The sunrise was spectacular! My friends and I started our first full day in Portland with a trip on the Aerial Tram (and of course, great coffee and donuts) with Sarah and Edwin at Around Portland Tours. It was the perfect way to start our trip; they gave us great photo opps, great welcome, and an extensive overview of the city in just a short time. It was an incredible value!
