You are going to LOVE this tour! Dresden is such a cool guy to learn from and to interact with. He will make you feel at ease and will turn the group you are touring with become closer. He is also full of Portland facts that will leave you with a lot of fun Portland trivia. (Come with questions for him to enrich the experience.) You will get a real sense of the city by adventuring with him!

Dresden is an excellent guide and host. Friendly, personable, punctual, and easy to spot in a crowd. He took us to some fun places that we had not discovered, shared lots of info and recommendations for the city, initiated thoughtful and interesting conversation amongst the group, and even was happy to watched me try to pet every single dog along the way. We made 3 new friends tonight. 10/10. Highly recommend.
