If riding is a great part of your life, and you ride your bike regularly with friends and like to be challenged and to surpass obstacles or just ride smoothly in a peloton, these bike tours where built for you. In these itineraries, you will get to feel different riding experiences, from tougher climbs to rolling along in great company. You’ll have time to enjoy the great landscapes, gain speed in the descents and also push yourself and climb those tough hills. You’ll enjoy the variety of terrain, riding in a peloton and pushing a little harder just before the stop at the local cafe!
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!
An exceptional experience with Live Love Ride. We did a self guided Azores trip and it was amazing. The bikes were beautiful, the information available was clear, and we knew we could always reach Alberto or Ricardo if need be. Both hotels were beautiful and every day had so much to offer. It truly exceeded our expectations and we are grateful to have gone. The cycling was definitely challenging but very rewarding.
