The early tour guest gets the spectacular views. We’ll pick you up in central downtown Portland, and take our favorite drive along the city's western ridgeline, down into pocket neighborhoods that feel like secrets. At OHSU, we’ll walk with you to the Aerial Tram. We’ll serve you craft roasted coffee and some of Portland’s best doughnuts with a view of the first morning light, then we’ll ride this feat of Italian engineering up to the top as the early sun reveals the city’s glowing colors. (Due to new hours for some shops and varying sunrise times, coffee may be our first stop.) After we ride back to the bottom, we'll tell you the story of the bridge and its quixotic lights, and orient you to the city whose east-west divider lies before us. The Aerial Tram was built in 2006 to connect the main campus of Oregon Health Sciences University with the new neighborhood of the South Waterfront. We will be joining students and medical staff on their daily tram ride!

Departure Point

Traveler pickup is offered

We will park at the southwest corner of Director Park (SW Taylor Street and Park / 9th Avenue). Look for our van under the Guild Theater sign on SW 9th Avenue; if that part of the street is occupied we will park elsewhere but we will come out to look for you right at 6:30. Our van arrives right at 6:30 and does not get to the pickup spot early.

Traveler pickup
  • Director Park, 815 SW Park Ave, Portland, OR 97205, USA
  • Oregon Health & Science University, Portland, Oregon, United States
    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.
    30 minutes
  • South Waterfront Lower Tram Terminal, 3303 S Bond Ave, Portland, OR 97239, USA
    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.
    10 minutes
  • SW Vista Dr, Portland, OR 97225, USA
    Our favorite route to the top of the hill is on a road named "Vista"; you will see why as we drive to the top of the Aerial Tram.

  • South Waterfront Park, Portland, Oregon, United States
    We'll pass through the South Waterfront neighborhood (with more doughnuts nearby!)
    15 minutes
  • Tilikum Crossing, Portland, Oregon, United States

Excellent experience.Basically a private tour since my sister and I were the only 2 people going that day! Sarah the tour guide was great-very knowledgeable and friendly.The views on the tram ride and especially from the top from the hospital were amazing-you could see for miles!Add in a great cup of coffee and 1 of the best donuts I have ever had and it made for a great way to start the day! Highly recommend!

We were lucky to take the tour on a beautiful day; we were picked up in the center of the city in the dark and taken up to the top of OHSU while the sun lit the sky. Word to the wise, the raspberry cream cheese donut is the bomb! Lizzy and Sara were so sweet, and they knew everything about the city; in a few hours, we learned so much more than we had in our whole previous two visits to the city. Thank you for a perfect morning!

This was such a great experience, especially for being my first time in Portland. It wasn’t all the tourist spots, but more personal views of the city and it was just incredible. The donuts were delicious! And the people were just so sweet. Beyond informative and extremely welcoming to the city of Portland.
