day 1Arrive Lisbon
Lisbon is the capital of Portugal and one of the world’s oldest cities: known as Olispio by the Romans, settled by the Visigoths and the Arabs before becoming the base for the “Discoveries’ – Columbus, Magellan and Vasco de Gama all set sail from here. An earthquake in 1755 destroyed many buildings and dramatically brought an end to this powerful empire. The UNESCO-listed Jerónimos Monastery and Tower of Belem still stands and worth a visit, as is the Alfama district for ‘fado’ (music) – or simply enjoy a stroll through the streets of this beautiful city. You will find the first waymark of your Portuguese Camino at the Cathedral.

Customer Reviews
We had an amazing adventure and this was helped by the organisation of our trip. Everything went smoothly and they responded quickly when I had a query during the ride.
We enjoyed the trip, great accommodation, a few glitches with bike hire, we found that we couldn't get anyone to respond to phone calls or emails to sort it out. Other than that - great experience.
Our group of eight last month completed fifteen days mountain biking the Camino track from Lisbon to Santiago de Compostela. Our accommodation was fabulous, luggage transfer was well timed. Seven out of eight had no bike issues.
An opportunity to see rural Portugal the equipment accommodation and trip notes all worked really well.
Loved our cycle holiday. having bikes, accommodation and luggage transfers arranged was just enough support to take the stress out but leave us with the decisions around how the day went.
