A visually stunning, 55 – 60 mile round trip helicopter tour for those who want to take in the breathtaking natural beauty of Oregon’s Columbia River Gorge up close combined with the convenience and thrill of flying in and out of downtown Portland’s heliport.
This tour encompasses much of the very best of what our region has to offer – vibrant city views, big flowing rivers, snow capped volcanic peaks with their richly forested foothills and, of course, the amazing scale and unique beauty of the Columbia River Gorge. A National Scenic Area, the Gorge, as locals usually call it, truly impresses with its diversity of soaring cliffs and multiple waterfalls framing the deep, river-cut, canyon that plows straight through the monumental Cascade Mountain Range. Join us for a breathtaking experience of the Gorge as could only be witnessed from a helicopter.
From your cliff height vantage point you will be taking in both the mountainous vistas above and the mighty Columbia below you. And between those two are some of the most picturesque and tallest waterfalls in America. Of course Multnomah Falls is the best known and tallest of them all and you will see it in a way that few ever do. Take our hour long tour from downtown and enjoy the thrill of being in a downtown scene, boarding on a rooftop, and being whisked to a completely different landscape of surreal natural beauty. It’s easy, it’s comfortable, it’s memorable, and you’ll be back in time for those downtown dinner reservations with absolutely no chance of being caught in a traffic jam.
Experience the ultimate in northwest helicopter tours on our Exclusive Multnomah Falls and Gorge Tour.
Approximately 50 minutes onboard helicopter. Allow one hour and twenty minutes total for pre-boarding and pictures.
Looking for another option for seeing the Gorge by helicopter at a lower price point? Checkout our Gateway to the Gorge Helicopter Tour which departs out of Troutdale – a small berg east of Portland that is located at the mouth of the Columbia River Gorge.

For a spare of the moment trip, this was phenomenal! The crew is fun, light hearted and professional. The views are pretty epic, and sell themselves! Money well spent.
What a great gift idea or anniversary surprise!

Took this flight with Ed on my birthday, with my young daughter. Ed was very personable and filled with portland trivia relating to the tour. Not a bad thing at all to say about this trip and would definitely take it again. Very causal and simple, if you want to see different views of Portland get tour camera and try this out.

What an experience! I’ve lived in Portland my entire life, seen the whole city, but never like this! Wow! The views hovering above this beautiful city in a helicopter are spectacular! If you’re a local or just visiting Portland, this is an absolute MUST, trust me, you’ll regret it if you don’t. The entire staff was very kind and professional, and our pilot Scott was highly skilled and very knowledgeable of the city. 10 out of 10! Would recommend! Arguable the coolest experience in Portland! Thank you!

We took our 6 year old nephew on the Santa tour. If you are looking for a way to deliver a memory that will last a lifetime it doesn’t get any better! We enjoyed it very much too. Santa was very courteous, knowledgeable and a darn good pilot. Highly recommend this tour!!
