We rode for 5 days in the Azores in a private group of 4. A van was following us at all times with food and drinks and a guide was biking with us, coaching us on the hard bits of the tour. We saw a lot of beautiful landscape on the Sao Miguel island of the Azores. The guides were very professional, were listening to our needs and adapted the tour to make it best enjoyable for us. Bikes were of excellent quality and well maintained. I strongly recommend this tour in the Azores.
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...…….!!
