Customer Reviews

Had an amazing tour into the national park to see waterfalls and the old village! Pedro was a great guide and made sure we had a chance to swim, as well as giving us lots of information about the area and plants. We had a great lunch at a local restaurant too - one of us is coeliac and Pedro made sure everything was safe. Would highly recommend!

I booked this tour for my birthday and had the best day ever! The national park was absolutely stunning, and the whole experience felt special from start to finish. The tour was very well organised, and I loved learning about how the company supports the local village community and helps with tree planting in the park such a meaningful initiative. Our guide Diogo was a legend ! so deeply connected to nature and the region. His passion for what he does and for the land and the community truly shines through, making the experience priceless. I also really enjoyed sharing the day with two other wonderful travellers. And Diogo’s taste in music was brilliant it added even more fun to the journey! Highly recommended!

We had an amazing experience on the Kayak in Peneda-Geres National Park. Our guide, Gui, was engaging, friendly, and knowledgeable in sharing history and information about the park. We could not have asked for better weather that day too! Kayaking on the lake was beautiful and peaceful. We hiked to a hidden waterfall, had a delicious lunch, and then got to see even more gorgeous views. We also had the special experience of coming across some of the wild horses that are in the park. It was really an overall special day. While many people take day trips to the Douro Valley for wine tours, we chose this instead to do something different and get to experience nature. We're so glad we did! We can't recommend Oporto Adventure Tours enough.
