Adventure every day.
Vicentine Coast of Portugal & Algarve
Biking is always a great way to travel. This ride was an adventure! The scenery is breathtaking, the riding was moderate with a mix of surfaces, the nightly accommodations were comfortable and each one was in a great location.
This was our second trip with Biketours and we were not disappointed!

First Rate Bicycle Tour
Castles and Wines of Portugal
The tour company provided excellent service on our guided, group tour in early November. My wife and I were the only two people on the tour, but the tour went ahead with a van and at least two guides every day. Our tour was at the end of the dry season and the landscape was parched. We encountered some rain but most of the time the weather was excellent for cycling. The tour company was very good at accommodating customers bringing their own bike. The company's ebikes also were very good bikes for the terrain. I highly recommend this tour.

Amazing country!
Gravel Biking from Alentejo to the Algarve
The gravel riding was different than anticipated but the support from the local bike tour operator was first class! The hotels we stayed at were 4-5 stars with great food and accommodations. We’d do this trip again! Highly recommend this trip for mountain bikers who want something more relaxed or road cyclists who want more challenge.

Beautiful scenery, well-supported trip
Portugal's Coastal Splendor from Porto to Lisbon
Our local agency provided the best customer service I’ve had in three European bike trips. They gave great sightseeing and restaurant recommendations, communicated daily and solved problems quickly. We were self-guided, but they rode with us out of town in our first day, to make sure we got on the right route. The hotels were terrific, route was beautiful,
the Portuguese people were charming and welcoming.- What was the date of your tour?

Fantastic Trip
Best of the Algarve by Road Bike
A good bike trip for the not so advanced cyclists that are looking for a challenge. We averaged about 75 km each day for 6 days. Certainly covered the Algarve Region from east to west then north to south. The coastline from Sagres to Aljezur was our favourite amongst the days travelled. Accommodations and breakfasts were what we were expecting. Rented bicycles functioned well. Coordination at the beginning, during and following the trip was timely and as expected.

Buck-list Trip
Camino de Santiago: From Porto to Santiago de Compostela
Our guide was fantastic dedicating himself to a memorable experience. He was knowledgeable on a wide variety of topics, recommended varied authentic dining experiences, and went out of his way to ensure a successful trip for everyone. Had I known that some for the "hills" exceeded a 12% grade, I would have prepared differently. The overall trip was ell worth the effort.

Algarve Bike Ride
Algarve Coastal Route
Overall we were quite happy with the experience. There were a couple of glitches which the on the ground team was able to rectify to get us on our happy way. The GPS system was where we had the most challenges as they did not always coincide with the written direction given us, which is why I only gave ease of navigation 3 stars and bikes and equipment 4 stars.
Most of the accommodation was excellent and all included breakfast. One hotel in particular The Villa Gale Ampalius was absolutely fabulous and had the best breakfast.
We were not expecting as much off road travel as we did. For the most part they were easy gravel hard packed road however, there are some sections that are for more experienced mountain bike riders which in a younger life would have been ok but certainly not at 70. I may have missed this part of the description of the tour notes when booking the trip in the first place.
Although, it would be a logistical nightmare for the tour group it would have been nice to have options to stay an extra night here or there. I know they do offer this up front. so keeping this in mind you may want to have an extra night in Tavira. The hotel is beautiful and sits in the main area of this gorgeous City making it easy to walk everywhere. We did get to the Real Villa de San Antonio a day before which Bike Tours happily arranged for us.
Our bags were always where they needed to be at the end of the day and the level of communication with the tour group was exceptional even when we needed to discuss some difficulties which, Angie, Fernando and Susana did an outstanding job of making things right. The E-bikes were easy to ride. The gearing made navigating hills easy. Even the hill on the last day was a breeze. The tour suggests what seems to be a much lesser climb however, we took the bigger of the two due to the not so easy looking off road option when we saw it.
The last day reads and seems like a lot however we were surprised at how fast we completed it. After viewing the light house we sat at the first food truck as you enter the beginning of the park and had one of the best burgers ever. Wish I could remember their trucks name. A husband and wife team run it. You won't be disappointed.
Generally speaking It was a nice way to experience the Algarve and now that we've done our first bike trip there will be others to follow.
