We were a bit worried...

We were a bit worried about how long the tour was, but the timing was perfect - our guide (Rob) was also able to point out sights we wouldn’t have seen otherwise. It was great!

Beautiful drive through forests and coast.

Phoebe was a great driver and tour guide. We saw the Haystack Rock and walked through a Sitka Spruce Forest and the town of Cannon beach as well as stops at several viewpoints. Cannon Beach is a nice beach town with plenty of choices for lunch.

Exquisite day trip

This was a totally amazing experience. This memory will last me a lifetime. There is no way to express the power of the waves combined with the breathtaking views of the mountains. The forest was lush and pure, nature at it's finest. Our guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. Her attitude was the very best. She drove us there with skill and in total comfort. I hope that I will get a chance to come back and bring my family.
