Hike to natural pools or tour Gerês waterfalls from Porto, with a guided small-group day, transport, and swimming time.
“Andre was a great guide, we had a really nice day!”
Paiva Walkways and the 516 Arouca suspension bridge from Porto, with an 8 km downhill hike, lunch in Arouca, and convent sweets.
“The suspension bridge and Paiva walkway is beautiful and a nice break from city sight seeing. Luis, our guide talked about the history of Portugal on the ride over. The walk is about 7km (all downhill) so wear good walking shoes, with a tasty veal lunch to follow. In the afternoon, we visited the monastery in Arouca with sweets and coffee afterwards. It was a fun day and would definitely recommend.”
Porto to Peneda-Gerês National Park for a small-group hike and wild swim in seven lagoons, with breakfast, picnic lunch, and photos.
“Michael was a great tour guide. He kept a good pace for us to hike and knew of good spots for photos. We had a delicious and plentiful homemade lunch. He even taught us so much about Portuguese wine, it was like two tours in one.”
Guided Douro Valley hike from Vale de Mendiz to Pinhão with UNESCO scenery, wine tasting, and free-time options, in a small group.
“Miguel is a character (in the best way)! Lovely guide and fun experience. Can’t go wrong with this one.”
