Last year’s tour was such a hit we’re doing it again… with a few new twists this time around. Like last summer, the emphasis will be on low-key / high-fun activity with moderate distance, escorted morning tours followed by afternoons free to enjoy the many attractions of Central Oregon’s favorite vacation destination… Bend. As one of our budget minded “D.I.Y.” tours, participants will make their own room bookings and dining choices — with help from our “local insider” tips.



This year’s tour will feature a get acquainted mixer, two, very diverse and scenic drives, a picnic lunch and a wrap-up on Saturday morning with a stroll through the Oregon Festival of Cars—held this year for the first time at Les Schwab Amphitheater in Bend’s Old Mill District. It’s the perfect laid-back and fun way to end the 2012 summer driving season. Don’t delay, space is limited so sign up soon!
