I booked this tour thinking it would be an easy walk because the itinerary said “easy,” but as a London city girl who only knows flat national parks, this turned out to be a proper hike for me. I was honestly scared at first and didn’t think I could do it.

I struggled with the steep parts, and this is where Miguel Ribeiro made all the difference. He guided me down the difficult sections and helped me keep my balance in a very patient and reassuring way. Without his support, I would have given up.

And I’m so glad I didn’t, because the waterfalls were incredible and the views were absolutely spectacular. The “no pain, no gain” was worth it in the end.

The restaurant at lunch also catered well for vegan/vegetarian options, which was perfect for me.

Overall, an amazing trip and well worth it, but truly, it was Miguel who made it possible. Thank you for showing me the beauty of Gerês and for being so supportive throughout the trip 😀

This wild jeep safari with Miguel as our tour guide was fantastic!!! We hiked to beautiful waterfalls, and Miguel safely led us through the national park, sharing many interesting stories about the region and nature. Thank you so much for this wonderful day, and the shared playlist in the car was extra cool!

Great experience, it was a wonderful day out. Nuno was the best guide, very kind and generous with his time. I highly recommend this tour!

19 April 2026 Porto, Portugal - We joined a small-group (6 pax) tour organised by OPORTO ADVENTURE TOURS to Peneda-Gerês National Park from Porto, and it was the highlight of our amazing travel at Porto.

Our guide, Miguel, was excellent—friendly, patient, knowledgeable, and very engaging. He gave clear explanations about the park, local traditions, and history, while keeping the atmosphere relaxed and enjoyable throughout the day.

Special mention to our driver, Isidro. He was extremely skilled, confidently handling the rugged terrain in a vintage 4x4 Land Rover 110. The bumpy off-road driving added to the adventure, and we really appreciated the smooth and safe long journey from Porto to Peneda-Geres and back.

The itinerary was well thought and planned out from the walk through beautiful forest trails, planting an oak tree, visited a traditional olive oil mill, and explored a fascinating “wolf village” (Fafiao) where we learned about the “Fojo do Lobo”, a very well-preserved ancestral trap used for luring and killing Iberian wolves to protect the villagers livestock.

The unforgettable would be the swimming at waterfall and the hidden waterfall—the water was very cold, but super refreshing and a lot of fun. It felt like a secret spot away from the crowds.

Lunch in a local village was also excellent—simple, authentic, and delicious.

Overall, this tour offers a perfect mix of nature, culture, and adventure. With a small group, a great guide and a highly skilled driver, the whole experience felt personal and well-paced. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Porto and looking to explore the real beauty of Peneda-Gerês. Ciao.

The description provided by the company’s advertisement is spot on. The waterfalls are spectacular and the views breathtaking. Miguel is an excellent guide - kind, attentive and knowledgeable. We loved this tour!

An amazing experience, discovering Gêres National Park. You will be doing things like kayaking, standup paddle, visiting and swimming in lagoons near beautiful waterfalls. All of this is shared on a tour with people from all over the world, giving us the fantastic opportunity to talk to them and learn their stories too. Our guide Nuno was absolutely welcoming, friendly, and kind, chatting with everyone and providing a memorable experience.

I've done a number of tours over the years in different countries, but my tour to Geres National Park stood out from the rest. Kata was exceptional! She was personable, very informed about the area, and all around a genuinely friendly person, who really enjoys her job! I highly recommend this company!

Mika is the best, Music was on Point ! Wonderful Day in the national Park! We make a offroad Tour and Kajak Drive and hike to the waterfalls. Lunch was very good.
