Porto

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!

Live Love Ride comes highly recommended. We choose a self guided bike tour from Porto to Santiago de Compostela on The Central Camino. It was well worth hiring them to make our trip hassle free. They took care of all the details; arranged transportation to and from the airport, booked our hotels, provided us mountain bikes and all the gear, transferred our luggage daily, provided exceptional restaurant recommendations, and checked in with us along the way. The service was excellent! They went out of their way to answer our questions and make sure we were happy and taken care of. Their service made this trip extra special.

The mountain biking was unbelievable. It was both challenging and rewarding. I loved the different terrain and remarkable views. We never knew what to expect around the next turn. This route was perfect for us! In total it was 6 epic days of riding, 180 beautiful miles, and 15,000' of elevation gain, making this trip one of best vacations I have ever taken.
