Private Tours

Private Wine Tours and Private Sightseeing Tours

EcoTours and Pinot Patrol Wine Tours also conduct private custom tours for up to 13 guests in our new 15-passenger van. We also have the option to use other vehicles.

You may use the itineraries of our normal wine tours or sightseeing tours or you may change the tour itineraries to suit your group. I am happy to discuss the possibilities.

Our private tours will be limited to just your party. One to 13 guests may participate.

We charge $1,000 for a private tour that lasts up to nine hours, $500 for four hours, and $100 per hour after the 4 or 9 hours.

Advantages of Private Tours

1. Your tour is exactly what you want. Stay longer or shorter at any of the stops on the tour.
2. If your group has 9-13 guests, it may be less expensive to book a private tour than to pay the full-day tour per person rate.
3. Also, I can go out of my way to pick you up.

Besides the normal popular tours, combining areas can include:

• Willamette Valley Wine Tour
• Columbia Gorge Wine Tour
• Columbia Gorge Waterfalls (including the famous Multnomah Falls)
• City Tour of Portland.
