Itinerary
We will stop in to a coffee shop, with the opportunity to purchase the unique fusion of the owners' Moroccan and German heritages
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.
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.
We'll pass through the South Waterfront neighborhood (where we will pick up doughnuts!)
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).
We will experience the doughnuts locals call "worth waiting in line for."

Great little tour! Our...
Great little tour! Our guide was so knowledgeable about the tram, the hospital system, and Portland in general. The views were pretty, too. Would definitely recommend!
A cool experience
Sarah was a great guide and enjoyed the experience and got to try some of the best Portland coffee and donuts and to learn a bit about the history of the city
Beautiful sunrise, amazing views.
Pickup location changed but Sarah was amazing picking us up. She was very helpful, providing us with historical data.
Great start!
If your new to Portland this is a perfect way start your exploring and plan out and ask questions to the guide about what else you are planning.

Great quick trip, awesome donuts from Blue Star included and definitely try the morrocan spiced coffee at Ovation before the trip starts.
