HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! Environmentally friendly, dependable, friendly. Cost same for 2 people as 1.

These folks are FANTASTIC! We got picked up at home on a steep hill in West Linn during ice and snow conditions in a timely manner and they managed to fit us in even when other services said they had no openings. They were reliable and friendly, and cheaper than many of the other companies. (Enterage was $140 total for round trip; EcoShuttle cost us $85 for round trip). The best part of all - they use biofuel at a big cost to their own company, since gasoline is cheaper. Their commitment to the environment is admirable.
They are waiting on the Port Authority to get authorization to pick up at the airport (should be approved soon) though they can drop off at PDX, but meanwhile, they have a great arrangement that worked well for us. We took the Max to the Cascade Station, which cost us $2 each, but EcoShuttle took off $5 from the price, plus another discount for using them for a "round trip," which ended up being $15 less. The little jaunt to the Cascade Station was so easy. We boarded at PDX and got off two stops later. We had called as soon as we got near baggage claim, and the van was waiting for us at Cascade Station. They dropped us off at home in West Linn. It cost no more for two people to travel than one, and they picked up no other passengers on the way.
We will continue to be their customers and will call them FIRST from now on.

Great Wine Routes!
Posted by boto-cop11 on 12/03/2008
When I came to visit, some friends took me on a wine tasting experience the Green way....and it was amazing! We hit up Sokol-blosser, Argyle, Vista Hills, Ponzi....wanted to try for Erath but didn't have time. Let me tell ya, the wines were superb but the pretty drive was even better! Not only did we change the route halfway through (that's the wine's fault) but they didn't bat an eyelash and the driver was not only exceptional but fun and very friendly/helpful. While it was definitely a van, it seemed more like a party bus for just me and my four friends - they even gave us a free cooler of beer to start the adventure off! I've never had so much fun being ecological =) Definitely would recommend this to anyone, and hope to come back and use again for a pub crawl reunion.

Best Way to Celebrate

We had a blast on my bachelorette party because of these guys. They planned out a pub crawl for us, gave us beer, and didn't blink an eye when we got kind of rowdy. The driver was so friendly and you could tell he knew his way around the city. The price was right and the party was fun. The ride was a little bumpy but that could just be some of the streets here. I'll be using them for our wedding in February too! I just hope they have more vehicles available so we can take everyone at once...

Best Wine Tasting Ever
Posted by jbot3000 on 12/02/2008
went to visit friends in portland who took me on an eco-Shuttle wine tour and it was a great great time...not only did they load a cooler of beer for free in for us for the ride, but halfway through we changed the route (that was customized especially for us) and they didn't bat an eye...the driver was great, so fun and friendly and still professional. Great time, and am going back to do the pub crawl next reunion. Did i say free beer? Yes, that's right.
