On a bike tour in the Camino de Santiago, you'll be joining a journey that started in the 9th Century, with the discovery, in Galiza, of the remains of St. James. This epic pilgrimage is shared by thousands of cyclists and walkers each year, as they follow the trail from France, Spain and Portugal to Santiago de Compostela. Whichever Camino you choose to ride, you are bound to marvel at the local traditions, culture, gastronomy and sense of communion between all those that share The Way - Now it’s your time to trail the Way of St James!
I had a wonderful bike trip in the Douro River area in October in a guided cycling group. The area is very scenic and the biking was fantastic. This is not an easy trip for most cyclists and training is seriously advisable or take another less challenging tour Live, Love, Ride offers. The hotel accommodations were very good and the restaurants for lunches and dinner our guides picked out - simply awesome. I did not expect the food to be that good on this trip and it exceeded all expectations. Rodrigo and Luiz were fantastic guides - friendly, attentive and just a pleasure to be with and around. I strongly recommend Live, Love, Ride for a wonderful active cycling vacation in Portugal...…….!!
The Scott bikes were excellent and well maintained. The off road routes along rivers and the coastline were peaceful, interesting and scenic. The well located hotels / posadas were of a high standard with friendly staff. Daniel was very clear explaining the APP and how it works - a fantastic and user-friendly innovation. He took the time setting up our bikes and was most helpful in answering questions as regards the route as we were doing a self-guided tour. We would love to repeat this experience and have no hesitation in recommending Live Love Ride.
