“Our guide was Juan who was very knowledgable and very passionate about the history of Porto. The weather was really awful, some very heavy rain which made me nervous given how hilly porto is and how there is not much cycling infrastructure, but we still made great memories. The bikes were in a good conditions, you definitely need a good level of fitness level. I guess one suggestion is to offer some poncho or some plastic rain covers for bad weather for morning sessions. Nothing was open at 9am for us to pick up, so this is something nice to have.”

Maria was very knowledgeable and kindly took lots of photos of us. Recommend doing this at the very beginning of a visit, as we'd had a wander about earlier in the morning and already passed some of the sights”
