About Gray Line of Portland
Local sightseeing experience, trusted tour brands, and a family of Portland and Columbia River Gorge tours designed to help guests see more of Oregon with comfort, value, and confidence.
A Local Tour Company With Deep Northwest Roots
Gray Line of Portland is part of a private Oregon-based transportation and sightseeing company with roots dating back to 2011 and leadership experience that spans more than 70 years in the land tour industry.
Our team brings decades of experience working with major cruise, tour, and sightseeing companies, including long-standing involvement with the Gray Line brand throughout the Northwest and Alaska. That background shapes the way we approach every tour: safe, organized, welcoming, and focused on giving each guest a memorable experience.
Experience That Makes a Difference
We operate full-size motorcoaches, custom-built sightseeing trolleys, and specialized mid-size buses. Many of these vehicles are unique in the Portland market and were selected or designed specifically for sightseeing in Portland, the Columbia River Gorge, Multnomah Falls, and Hood River.
For guests, that means a better way to see the region: more comfortable transportation, better views, professional driver-guides, and tour options that are built around the actual experience of visiting Oregon’s most popular destinations.
Comfortable Vehicles
From full-size motorcoaches to open-air trolleys, our fleet is chosen for sightseeing comfort, visibility, and reliability.
Professional Driver-Guides
Our driver-guides combine safe driving with personality, local knowledge, and the ability to make the route part of the experience.
