We did the South west self guided tour. The organisation was superb, with great attention to detail. Pre-trip information gave use an excellent idea of what to expect. Bikes were in perfect condition. Directions and route maps were accurate and precise.This was the most personalised service we have ever received on a bike tour. We had daily check-ins via text from our contact in Live Love Ride, with tips on restaurants, things to see etc. I could not recommend this organisation highly enough. We were treated as individuals, not just a booking number. We will definitely use LLR again!
My wife and I found this tour to be amazing, challenging and everything we had hoped for in a Portugal cycling adventure. We found the roads very smooth, extremely light traffic, and breathtaking views. Daily rides were through the Douro estate vineyards and through small,
quaint ,cobble-stoned villages; historic and still inhabited.vOur guide, Daniel was extremely attentive and flexible to our desires and needs always giving us the space and time to enjoy the beautiful countryside at our own pace. (He even allowed us to take a quick side trip into Spain because I really wanted to!)
The accommodations were five star and dinners expertly prepared and presented artistically!
Daniel was wonderful in giving us insights and recommendations daily so we could choose how our free time was spent off the bike… sightseeing touring castles, resting poolside.
Daily rest stops included enjoying espresso in the mornings and wonderful Douro wines to sample at lunch and dinner.
We are ALREADY planning our next
LIVE LOVE RIDE adventure… can’t wait !!
