BIKE TOURS IN PORTUGAL FOR EXPERIENCED RIDERS

This being our second bike tour in Portugal with LLR first being the Douro Valley and presently finished the Azores bike tour , I can only say “awesome “ both bicycle trips over exceeded our expectations. Our guide extraordinaire, Alberto Botelho was outstanding in providing support and guidance for us , being the only two people on the ride he was able to adapt the ride to better enhance the tour with added spots and experienced information only a local resident would know! He provided excellent protection on the narrow roads and we always felt safe.He provided excellent high end , well maintained cycles for the ride which enhanced the tour. Would highly recommend this company on any of their rides they are dedicated to customer service and safe rides! Look forward to our next Portugal bike tour with LLR bike tour!

If you want to experience cycling in Portugal, riding through unspoilt countryside I can thoroughly recommend engaging Live Love Ride to show you the way. I have just returned from the Alentejo area where our group were provided with a superb tour by Ricardo of Portugal Bike Tours, enthusiastically assisted by Jonas. We stayed two nights in three different hotels, the last, the Marmoris hotel at Vila Vicosa being superb.
I organised the trip, the first time I have ever taken on such a task and every question to Ricardo was answered personally and quickly during the planning stages.
We were met at Lisbon airport and driven to our first hotel. The bikes we hired as part of the tour were modern and very good quality. The electric bikes used by three of the group were brand new. We were all carefully fitted to the bikes ready for the off the next morning.
We were supplied with GPS units loaded with the routes plus a Portugues telephone for emergencies. The organisation by Live Love Ride – Portugal Bike Tours was faultless and more than we ever expected.
Every one of our group are keen to go back to Portugal next year and we are already talking to Ricardo about cycling with him in a different area of the Country.
Without question, our next bike tour in Portugal will be with Live Love Ride.

We had a wonderful week on the Alentejo wine country bike tour. The programme itself was excellent – we loved all the places we visited – the accommodation was outstanding – so unusual – and the towns and villages all so beautiful. The rides each day were great fun – challenging, but manageable, and the reward at the destination – reaching the beautiful town or seeing the magnificent view were always worth it. Lovely scenery along the way, good roads, fun coffee stops. Our guides Rodrigo and Luis were both super guys – we couldn’t have asked for better – not only efficient and organised, but so friendly and always helpful and patient when dealing with any request from anyone, and just fun people to be around! They took us to lovely restaurants, different every time, and we all really enjoyed the delicious Portuguese cuisine and wine! It was a lovely week, a great experience from every angle, and the beautiful weather in Portugal is just a bonus! Planning on doing the Douro bike tour next year.
