Day 02 & Day 03 - Portland
From your central location, the many attractions of Portland are right on your doorstep. This is a wonderfully walk-able city, however there is also a very strong bike culture. Perhaps take a bike tour down to the waterfront or to see the city's many attractions, before savouring dinner and sampling a beverage from one of Oregon's urban wineries or one of the 50 craft breweries. If you are joyed by the outdoors, visit one of the many gardens; Washington Park, International Rose Test Garden, Forest Park, Portland Japanese Garden or Crystal Springs Rhododendron Garden. If attractions and museums are more your ruse, visit Oregon Zoo, Portland Art Museum, Oregon Historical Centre, Oregon Museum of Science and History or Pittock Mansion.
Hotel: The Nines
Day 04, Day 05 & Day 06 - Willamette Valley
This morning collect your car rental. It is only a short drive today as you leave the city and meander through the bounteous landscape, filled with rich vineyards and farm-to-table produce. In four short decades, Oregon's wine industry has moved from unknown to world-renowned. Award-winning pinot noirs placed Oregon on the global wine map, but the diverse geo-climate has enabled both warm and cool weather varieties to thrive. There are now 17 wine-growing regions within Oregon's state lines. The naturally welcoming trait of the Oregonians ensures tours and tastings at the plentiful wineries are more reflective of drinking with friends than a sightseeing tour. Your accommodation is at one of Willamette Valleys most beloved and most luxurious inns.
Hotel: The Allison Inn & Spa
Driving Distance - 25Mi/41Km
Day 07 - Journey home

On arrival at Portland International Airport, return your car to the depot and check in for your flight back to the UK.
