365PDX#148: Willamette River Jetboat tour

Posted July 31, 2010

As part of the PDX Bridgefestival, Willamette Jetboat tours is offering deeply discounted tours of the Willamette River this Saturday from 4-9pm. For just $10, you can ride the jetboats. Tours are normally $37 for a two hour tour and $27 for the hour tour- I”m not sure which one you get for $10 but am guessing it’s the hour tour, which goes from Omsi to Swan Island. (The two hour tour goes all the way to Willamette Falls)

I’ve often enviously watched the jet boats cruising down the river ‘sliding’ around, and it looks like a lot of fun. If I”m in town tomorrow, I’m definitely planning on taking advantage of this huge discount to explore the river.

To board, head to the Eastbank Esplanade Dock near the Hawthorne Bridge. $10 per ride, all ages.
