Itinerary

Set out on a remarkable cycling odyssey along the Full Portuguese Camino, tracing the entire pilgrimage route from Lisbon to Santiago de Compostela across Portugal and Spain. Over 16 days, this self-guided bicycle trip invites experienced travelers and seniors to discover a quieter, spiritually rich route, featuring stops in Coimbra, Porto, and numerous historic towns. Pedal through eucalyptus forests, cross ancient Roman bridges, and explore bustling markets as you follow the legendary path of St. James. Each day unveils diverse landscapes—from Portugal’s rolling countryside to the lush green hills of Galicia. With comfortable hotel stays, included meals, and luggage transport, you’ll be free to focus on the journey’s historical and cultural tapestry. The unique selling point of this tour package lies in its seamless adaptation of a classic pilgrimage for cyclists, combining centuries-old tradition, scenic beauty, and cultural immersion on two wheels.

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.

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.

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.
