This is a full day of solid exploring, sights and nature without being overly challenging or rushed. Elena was an amazing tour guide who was very knowledgeable, friendly, fun and engaging. Both my girlfriend and I felt like this was worth the cost, especially considering what you'd have to do to get there on your own. Thanks Elena and Oporto Adventures!”

“We booked the tour with Miguel and Pinto and one day later we are still thrilled by this experience. It was all about adventure, pushing your limits and feeling free and happy. All that surrounded by great panorama and two really committed and sympathetic guides that made us feel save the whole time. Our highlight was the jump from the rocks at a height of eight meters down to a crystal clear little lake. We strongly recommend it to every person who likes a little adventure within their holiday. It’s definitely not an everyday experience. By the way the equipment was high quality. Thanks guys for an amazing day!”

We wouldn’t have wanted to drive the very narrow and curvy roads on our own. The lunch was also delicious!”
