We were picked up promptly at our hotel by our tour guide, Sylvie. There were no other parties in our group, so it turned out to be a private tour for the 7 of us. We got a good weather for hiking -breezy in the morning, got an occasional glimpse of the sun throughout, and generally dry for the time of year. This is a hiking tour so be prepared to hike for about 5 miles to see all 10 spectacular falls of the Silver Falls park. Don’t worry about too many falls and not enough time. The pace was perfect to take many pictures of various angles of the falls. The pace was good for our group age range of 55-60 years old. We started from the North Falls and ended up via uphill stairs on the South picnic area with lunch which was thoughtful. We headed next to the wineries for the 2nd half of the tour. We visited Cubanisimo first and Eola Legacy next for tasting. Eola had the Mimosa tasting menu in addition to the Pinot Noir flight. We bought a few bottles of the Estate at Cubanisimo and wanted to go back for more. This is a great value for a small group tour. Pick-up and Drop-off at our hotel was very helpful. We recommend our tour guide, Sylvie. She kept us on schedule, and we appreciate the lovely conversations with her throughout the tour.

It would have been better if the guide was more knowledgeable about the area and the trails. It was also listed as including 2 wine tastings, but the 2nd one was closing when we arrived. The tour operator should plan better and make arrangements with the tasting rooms when they have tours scheduled.

Ben was awesome! Very knowledgeable and courteous. Also well observant of the group and their walking pace.. specially for an older couple that is not in the greatest shape 😉! One of the most beautiful hikes I have ever been on and enjoyed the beauty to the fullest!

Ben was great. The hike was a little harder than advertised by the park system, but was well worth it. Our guide was knowledgeable and interesting would definitely recommend!

I would have left 0 stars if the app would let me. The guide I formed me we were too far away for pick up, I asked where to meet him, he told me. It's an outlet mall and I don't want ro leave my car in a mall parking lot for 10 hours. I called him. He told me I was shady because I was staying in McMinville and he was thinking of canceling the tour because we were the only ones booked on it. He told me to just go myself and HUNG UP ON ME. $360 ??? For a guy that talks to strangers like that and cancels their trip that they've had planned for almost a year????? BAD BAD BAD SERVICE.
