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.
Hood River Pedal & Paddle – A Truly Outstanding Experience! We recently had the pleasure of using Hood River Pedal & Paddle while visiting Oregon with our group, the Bike’n Babes, and we were absolutely blown away by the experience! Todd was incredibly personable and welcoming, helping all 14 of us get fitted with bikes and making sure everyone was comfortable. He then guided us on a three-hour tour of the area, sharing fascinating trivia, history, and insider knowledge about the local spots. He made frequent stops, helped us capture group photos, and kept the experience engaging and fun the entire time. Todd’s encouragement and genuine care made our ride so enjoyable — we felt like we were in the best hands possible! We also want to give a huge shoutout to his assistant, Will, who joined us on the tour to ensure no one got left behind. He was patient and supportive for anyone who needed extra help or was lagging behind, and he made sure the group stayed safe and together throughout the ride. The bikes themselves were high-quality, very comfortable, and Todd’s rental rates were extremely reasonable, making this an excellent value. We highly recommend Hood River Pedal & Paddle to anyone visiting the area — whether you making a stop on a river cruise or spending more time exploring. Todd, Will, and their team go above and beyond to make the experience memorable, and we couldn’t have asked for a better adventure. Thank you so much for your care, energy, and expertise — we can’t wait to come back!
