Our cycling retreats in Portugal mean 3-day bike tours in regions like the Algarve, Douro Valley and Lisbon, each offering unique traits, from sea cliffs to wine country. You’ll stay in a single hotel, so there’s no daily packing or luggage transfers. Just good rides, delicious meals and plenty of time to enjoy where you are! It’s an easy and immersive way to explore Portugal on two wheels. Curious to know more about our cycling retreats?
I booked a one day ride around Evora, Ricardo picked me up at the Four Seasons Ritz hotel in Lisbon and we drove out to ride in Évora. We rode for three hours around the area rolling hills through lovely cork forests, up to an ancient stone cropping. Ricardo was an excellent guide and wonderful host. The bike was really great quality. We then had lunch at an amazing restaurant in the heart of the medieval city. The ride was well planned and the whole day went smoothly. I highly recommend this company LLR-Portugal Bike Tours.
You’ll start the day with a homemade breakfast. Then roll out for a few hours of riding through terraced vineyards, along the Portuguese coastline or across quiet inland hills…
You’ll ride at your own pace, with time to stop for a view, chat, take pictures and a quick dip in the sea.
You’ll enjoy steady routes of 45–90 km per day with 600–1,200 m of elevation, enough to feel accomplished but not exhausted!
During our cycling retreats, you’ll unpack once and stay at the same charming hotel for two nights.
No daily transfers.
No stress.
It’s comfort, culture, welcoming hospitality and connection, all combined just right in a 3-day getaway.
Some prefer freedom. Others want the confidence of a team. With Portugal Bike Tours, you can get both!

It’s your ride, your choice!
Our 3-day cycling retreats are designed to give you time to explore, without feeling like you’re chasing the clock.
You’ll ride routes that show you more than the highlights: quiet wine country roads in the Douro, the backroads along the coastline of the Algarve or forested climbs in Sintra.
Lunch might be at a local tasca, with grilled fish and vinho verde.
Each cycling retreat is anchored in one place, so you ride around but sleep in the same comfy bed each night. That means no daily hotel changes and no need for constant packing and unpacking.
Road bikes, gravel bikes or e-bikes. One of these will fit your riding style. Once that is decided, they’ll be tuned, adjusted and ready to go!
Our cycling retreats in Portugal are e-bike friendly, so all levels can ride together.
You’ll have route planning, daily briefings and mechanical support throughout.

What happens when you cycle in a small group? A lot of great memories, including:
During our cycling retreats in Portugal, you can expect just a handful of riders, each bringing their own pace, stories and reasons for being here. Some come for wellness. Some for connection. Others just want to rediscover the joy of going on an unforgettable cycling adventure.
What brings everyone together is the ride but it’s the laughs, shared climbs and dinners along the way that often turn into lasting friendships.

Each of our 3-day bike tours offers a different ride through Portugal’s rich landscape. You’ll find majestic cliffs along the coastline, vineyard valleys or forested hills, and each region has its charm, rhythm and stories to tell…
You might want Atlantic Ocean views. Or the quiet of the hills. Or to follow a riverside road… Wherever you’re headed, we’ll find the right match at Portugal Bike Tours!
The Algarve offers so much more than stunning beaches and warm water... You’ll ride from dramatic cliffs overlooking the sea into the hills of Monchique, where cork oak forests and open valleys create the perfect mix of challenge and peace.
Expect warm breezes, quiet offroads near Lagos and breathtaking views that stretch all the way to the sea…

This cycling retreat takes you into the heart of wine country... You’ll ride along narrow roads that wind above the Douro River, past centuries-old vineyards and through picturesque villages that haven’t changed much in generations.
