We are a couple from Israel and we just finished the self guided bike tour in the Minho valley and it was excellent and truly recommend. Daniel was super attentive and helpful in every way. The hotels were great and provided a special hospitality. The route were varied with truly beautiful views. Thanks to Live Love Ride for a great bike vacation.
From start to finish this was a professionally orchestrated tour. The hotels were spectacular, particularly Convento de espinheiro and São Lourenço do Barrocal ( we could have spent a week in this location!). The riding was truly incredible - we have cycled on self-guided trips in multiple European countries and domestically, and this was some of the most unique and safe riding we have ever experienced. On some or the roads, you often could forget that cars occasionally also used the road. High quality scott addict road bikes with ultegra components were provided in excellent condition. Pedro provide a diligent briefing with great recommendations for stops and restaurants in multiple locations. We will return to do the Douro valley!
