I’ll be in town next week, any chance you will have tours then?
Hi Kris! The tours will restart on May 16th, 2013. Sorry I missed you! I’m currently filming my new cooking show in Mexico. Hope you had a wonderful trip to Portland!
Hi there! We’d love to join you for a tour 5/24 – will you be around then?
Yes! I started the tours up again on Friday May 10th. So the tours are indeed back in action and I will see you at 11am on the 24th! Looking forward to it- Erik
How can I watch your cooking show? I forgot the name of it? We went on your tour today. We loved it! You are simply DELIGHTFUL.I can’t wait to see the show. Help !
will you be doing tours on 8/29/13?
Yes, absolutely. The last tour of the 2013 season is October 15th.
Hi! It’s almost May 2014. Will you guys be available in August? Hubs and I are trying to plan our trip with the 2 yr old k thx! :D
Hi there! Yes, the tour will absolutely be going on every day in August! Thats the busiest month of the year for tourism and the weather is the sunniest, too. I look forward to meeting you in August!
How far is the walk? I am recovering from an injury and would love to participate but I need some idea of the distance and pace. Thanks
Hi there, Debbie. The tour is a bit over a mile. About 1.3 miles. The tour lasts about 2 hours and there are 12 different stops on the tour where you can rest. The distance between each of the 12 stops on the tour is about 2 to 3 city blocks…
Do we actually stop and wait in line to eat at these places or do we just look? For example voodoo donuts, I know the lines are long, so during the tour do you just tell us the story behind voodoo donuts then move on or can we all wait in line and enjoy? Same thing for the food carts, beer breweries and etc
I tell you the story behind these Portland food icons and then end the tour in front of Voodoo donuts so people can jump in that long line if they would like! But no, there isn’t enough time to wait for people to get food at the food carts. That would totally disrupt the flow of the tour…
Hello! We will be in town this weekend, just checking that you are going to be touring every day. Thank you!
yep, every day at 11am! havent missed a day in 3 years. the tour runs daily from may 1st to oct 20th…
We will be in town this weekend and interested in taking a tour. Do you allow dogs on a leash?
Sure do! Dogs are totally welcome on tour.
Hi – We would like to join in on your tour next week. Can you please share car parking information/recommendations?
The best place to park is the Smart Park garage- entrance on SW 10th Ave between Yamhill and Morrisson! Its just three blocks from where we start the tour and has the best rates, too.
I see your schedule goes through September. No tours in October this year?
Yep, tour goes till Oct 20th, but on Sept 16th it will revert to 11am every day…
Hi,
I’ll be visiting Tuesday, August 19th. I see everyone mentioning the 11am tour but it’s listed on the site that tours are at 11am and 4:30am. Will there be a tour at 4:30pm that day as well? Thanks!
Yes! There will be one at 4:30pm as well. See u then…
Any tours on Sunday the 24th?
yep, at 11am and 4:30 :-)
Hi,
I will be in town during Halloween this year. Are you doing the tour on November 1st?
yes!! see you then!!
Every time I visit Portland I try to catch this tour but I have not been so lucky yet. Is there a 430pm tour tomorrow?
There are only tours at 11am from today until November 23rd, 2014. See you at 11!
When do you start your tours again in 2015?
Friday, May 1st! See you this summer I hope.
