The donut tour was the perfect way to get to know Portland and a bit of its history while enjoying some delicious donuts. Chris did a great job of showing us around Old Port and entertaining us with some stories. The tour was well-timed and fun!

We spent one day in Portland and decided to do the Portland Donut Tour. It came highly recommend from friends. We couldn't miss the opportunity. I am so glad we booked the tour! Kris was our guide (owner too). He was very good at communication leading up to the tour. He was prompt and our 11:30 tour started on time. We skipped the line at the famous Holy Donut to sample the pumpkin donut and chocolate sea salt and were give brief tour inside. The next stop was Eighty 8 Donut Cafe to sample mini donuts. The last stop was gourmet donuts at Yuri's Desserts. These were all amazing donuts and very unique. The tour was so much more than the history of donuts. Kris did a fantastic job of sharing some of the history of Portland and showed us some of the unique architecture from rebuilds after the fires. It was fun and educational at the sametime! He also has a new tour doing Lobster Rolls around downtown. If we had another day, we would have done that one too! I would highly recommend this tour - don't think twice, just book it!

What a fun morning we had with Kris! In addition tasting some amazing donuts we learned a lot of history of Portland. We skipped the line at the famous Holy Donut to sample the pumpkin donut and chocolate sea salt. We tried mini donuts at the Eighty 8 donut cafe and gourmet donuts at Yuri's Desserts. Kris definitely does his research and was an entertaining host. A must for anyone wanting to learn about Portland while having some fun. Thanks again!
