Portland began a lawless town. Early scandals abounded. Legends grew as tall as the trees. Find out why Portland has the nickname "Little Beirut," why the governor funded a music festival, and hear the history that took Portland from humble beginnings to the vibrant city it is today. Your guide will take you to the rooftop (optional) for a view of downtown before embarking on a 90 minute van tour of Portland, which includes one stop-and-walk location along an historic plaza. Roll through Old Town, the Pearl District, Tom McCall Waterfront Park, the Government district, the South Park Blocks, and more. See Powell's books, the China Town gateway, Portlandia, and the 3-D mural on the Oregon Historical Society. Hear commentary on Portland's history and culture, from its origin as a wild west town, to its moniker as "the most progressive city in America," to recent controversies. Your tour guide is a professional who enjoys showing people around.
