  • Cruise downtown Porto on two wheels
    (5/5) Alex Anderson August 9, 2023

    Great way to see a beautiful city on a bike

    Porto Downtown & Sightseeing Bike Tour

    Our guides were Porto locals so knew the town and its history inside out and backwards. We did a custom bike tour so got to see a bit more than usual which was all well worth it. If you are looking for a hotel recommendation, I can't recommend the Hospes Infante Sagres enough. It was one of the cooler old school hotels I've ever seen. When not on your bike, be sure the check out the nightlife along with its food and restaurants on both sides of the Douro River. We didn't get around to trying to some of the local port tastings (all of the major brands have huge cellars on the north side of the river) be had enough elsewhere. Also, there is a new shopping center on the north side of the river that we briefly biked past that is apparently also well worth seeing if you are into that sort of thing.

    This was a super fun tour with high quality e-bikes and especially a SUPERB guide, Peter Mendes. Peter made sure we safely navigated the streets (and hills!) of Lisbon, and he was extremely informative about the history and culture of both Lisbon and Portugal. Peter spoke excellent English and made us feel welcome. I would not hesitate to recommend any tour with Peter!

    Superb cycling tour/trip

    · Vineyards of Portugal by E-Bike in Upscale Lodging

    The e-bikes were of superb quality with 650W Bosch batteries . We only used 1/3 of battery power . The distance per day was not too much which left us time to head back to the hotel and spend the afternoons at the pool or sight seeing. Cycling on rural quiet roads in Portugal ,going through very small villages . The GPS app worked well . The transfers of luggage to hotels was great . It was a trip to cherish forever

    Everyone should visit Portugal!

    Our group of ten had a fantastic time! The scenery was amazing and both Porto and Lisbon are great cities to visit. All the hotels were fantastic. We only had one hiccup on the navigation. Nothing major and we figured it out. We enjoy self-guided trips so we can travel at our pace and explore. We can't wait to take another trip to Portugal.

    Good trip

    · Algarve Coastal Route

    The scenery, transportation and accommodation were top notch. Several of the bicycles were difficult to shift, no water bottle holders and poor tread (five punctures). The GPS supplied did not always follow the route. The comment about most road riding is on traffic calmed roads is not correct. If any of your group has trouble riding in traffic you may want to look elsewhere. Having said all that I would repeat the trip after addressing the comments above.

    Algarve Coastal Route

    · Algarve Coastal Route

    Very enjoyable scenic route. Great seafood, excellent weather (September). Good logistics. Challenging in parts however, due to traffic on roads and more hills than expected. We were glad to have ebikes. Tires supplied were not up to the trails and we suffered several punctures. I recommend checking equipment carefully before setting out.
