Todd, Will, Blac, and the rest of the team have built something special here, with staff who consistently go above and beyond to make every outing memorable. Whether you're booking a guided tour or renting equipment for a self-guided adventure, you'll find the process remarkably easy and the gear top-notch. The e-bikes are comfortable, well-maintained, and have impressive battery life even on longer rides. Guides share fascinating insights about the area's geology, history, and culture while making sure everyone feels comfortable and included, regardless of skill level. The sunset kayak tours earn particular praise for their relaxed pace and knowledgeable narration. For cyclists, the provided maps and route recommendations make it simple to explore Hood River's scenic trails, the Fruit Loop, or the historic Columbia River Highway at your own pace. Groups especially appreciate how attentive the staff is to keeping everyone together and ensuring no one feels left behind. The combination of reasonable prices, quality equipment, and genuinely personable service makes this a standout option for experiencing the Columbia River Gorge.
I would highly recommend a journey with Pedal & Paddle!! One of our excursions from our cruise was an e-bike trip. We were picked up by a Greg, who turned out to be an amazing guide, and traveled to our starting spot where our other guide was located with bikes and helmets ready to go. Our group was made up of experienced and beginning riders. Our guides did all the safety instructions and helped the beginners feel comfortable on their new ride. Then we were off. On our journey we made stops where the guides shared historical, geological, geographical and behind the scenes information about the area. They also stopped in areas where we could get some beautiful pictures. It was a beautiful day and our guides were so patient with our questions and finding answers. They provided us with waters and snacks for the trip. Our guides knew quite a bit about of info about the area and the love for this region was evident!!! Greg even took us on a bonus trip to Mt.Adams because we had the time and one of the guests’ name was Adams. What a wonderful experience it was for all of us. Thanks, Pedal &Paddle
