It would have been better for the free day not to be on a Sunday as there was a very reduced local bus service so it was not possible to explore the wider area.

UTracks organised a great trip on this section of the Camino however the track is poorly signed and even with a good map app, getting lost seemed to be a daily occurrence. The signage is not the responsibility of UTracks but in my view if signage could be improved, it would make for a more enjoyable trip. After Porto, the signage was good.
Your staff drivers and guides is brilliant They are planned, super sweet and helpful I liked that the tour gave us enough time to spend on our own and also let us see major highlights of a city.
Porto to Lisbon Bike Tour is an 8-day tour that takes you into Portugal’s two largest cities—Porto and Lisbon. Your tour will start in one of the Unesco World Heritage cities—Porto. With more than 150 classified monuments and unrivaled wine and gastronomic richness, Porto will transfer you to a world of amazing flavors.
Your next destination is Aveiro (the famous Portuguese Venice). Here, you will explore the famous beach of Nazaré and the medieval town of Obidos. Guarded by walls, the city has maintained its traces over the centuries.
After exploring Porto, you will head to the capital, Lisbon—the city of seven hills. The sparkle and light of the Tagus River has inspired poets, painters and photographers alike—immortalizing Lisbon in their works. Explore the typical medieval neighborhoods and endless monuments whose stones mark the soul of Portugal.
This tour is ideal for wine and food lovers, willing to discover the unique taste of Portugal while exploring the cities at their own pace.

This tour gave a wonderful mix of culture, scenery, and wine. From Lisbon’s iconic sites to the serene Douro Valley, everything was carefully planned. I loved every part of it!
Thanks to Rocio the wonderful guide, I am giving this holiday a 5 star review!! Her enthusiasm and passion for Portugal shone through, her knowledge on history and culture and all things flora and fauna was amazing, she was so interesting, fun and engaging and charming, as was Tania who joined the trip from the office in Barcelona. I particularly enjoyed the walking up in the hills, so green and verdant, lots of wild flowers….and the gorgeous orange and lemon trees were dripping with fruit. I loved the additional things like visiting the Monterosa Olive Oil producers, fascinating to hear and see how olives are produced and also the visit to the templar castle with fab views. The delicious lunch stop at Casa Merca with local cheese and a chorizo and pork chickpea stew was a treat! And visiting the local market at Olhao was fun! I would have preferred another days walking up in the hills rather than 2 days with walks along the beach….It was a plus for me that the holiday was centre based in Tavira as I really loved exploring the old town and its cobbled streets and finding delicious local restaurants to eat in, in the evenings!
