Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

    Great day, great car (there is no substitute for the Land Rover), Luis is the best, no rush at all, cold springs and waterfalls, thank you for the swimsuit Luis, very good local lunch and great wine in a bowl, oak seeds, pigs and cows, love the town of Cabril-Fafião and the nature in the National Park with the real bumpy 4X4 trails.

    This tour was absolutely amazing and will be one of the best experiences of life! The scenes are stunning and the leaves were absolutely gorgeous during the fall. Teresa, our tour guide, was charismatic and super knowledgeable. The tour is very small and personal, which I loved. There is a good mix of moderate climbing of rocks and hills and so be prepared to get some steps in - though most of the trip is by car. You will stop in the village to have one of the most amazing feasts of your life. They made incredible accommodations for me as a vegetarian and the food was some of the freshest I've ever had. Highly recommend this tour!

    We took the tour with Pedro on a very hot day, so that might influence my review ;) we had a great time but some things we didn’t know from the description or reviews, so here it goes for a better understanding of the tour 😊 apparently, Pedro changes it up a bit in different seasons etc.

    First up, Pedro is one of the most attentive tour guides out there and really loves the area, the national park and the people there. It was great having him as a guide!

    The transfer is 2h of driving time each way with two stops each way (one scenic, and one the cafe/refueling). Our group was quite chill and had no appointments (which Pedro asked about beforehand) and so somehow the tour ended up being way longer, and we got back at 10.30pm, with Pedro dropping people off close to their lodgings.

    The first half of the tour is very basic hiking with not much elevation and a nice view, before you get to the waterfalls and pools where you can take a break and swim (that’s about 2h of walking with pauses for interesting info about the area). The water is pretty cold, which was great on the hot day!

    After that, Pedro asks the group if they want to go back the same way or continue on and loop around another mountain. (I think he said, the group could also split up with people going back the easy way on their own). If you choose the loop, is where the going gets tough, there are multiple pretty steep parts with a big incline at the end. It’s no joke if you’re not fit. But the most annoying part was the thorns that people have mentioned before, it’s different kinds but one that comes up often for example is blackberry bushes, so it does scratch you up good/will rip less sturdy clothing. There is another lagoon/pool situation on that route and the vistas are a bit different, so my friends and I are divided on if that makes the second half worth it. The second half was around 2.5h of hiking, plus the second break.

    Sadly, we didn’t see any of the animals that could’ve been there but that’s nature! The fauna is pretty interesting with a lot of rock formations and ferns with a lot of cute little flowers. You get pretty scenic views as you’re high up from the beginning.

    So, all in all:
    - expect an actual hike if you do the big loop.
    - wear long, sturdy pants bc of the thorns
    - definitely wear at least sneakers with some grip
    - bring a water bottle - there are a few spots to refill them with mountain spring water, which is awesome!
    - And pack enough snacks and food for a really long day

    This visit is a must for those who want to experience the park in a deeper way. Nelson is an amazing guide and knows the park very well. The communication with him has been flawless even before starting the tour.

    The tour is perfectly balanced between walking/driving and bathing at the waterfalls. The lunch offered was delicious.

    If I'll have the chance to visit the park again, I'll definitely contact Nelson to have another tour together.

    Carlos was super knowledgeable and helpful during this trek. We changed the plan last minute and he was very accommodating of the change in routes and took us through a beautiful 8km trek. Often there were no other trekkers but us.

    At the end he went out of his way to show us more of the park and scenic route home.

    The team was organized with equipment such as hiking poles.

    Very professional and overall highly recommend .

    It was a fantastic trip and it was special because of the mix of hiking and driving around. In one day you will see a lot of the park. We’ve got a lot of information about the national park that we would not know otherwise. After today we love Portugal even more🤩🇵🇹 Juan knows his ways around here and shows you other places than only the most famous ones. It is easy to join this trip with a good normal condition or for children.

    Bruno was great and was the only tour responsive super late, last minute, the night before we wanted to go (I think we also got lucky that someone else cancelled). Bruno was super nice, friendly, spoke great English and was incredibly knowledgeable about the park, and really ALL of northern Portugal. He was happy to cater to our interests and took us too an incredibly beautiful swimming hole in the mountains. The hike up was not easy, but definitely worth it if you are physically capable. I felt safe the whole time.

    This tour was a great day out in the Geres National Park. Bruno has excellent local knowlege, and the groups are small and personal, which made it all the more enjoyable. The kayak, treks, and swims were great fun in this stunning area.
    The visit to the Wolf village was unexpected, and being a Wolf lover, it was a wonderful surprise for me.
    I would highly recommend this tour with Trek Portugal in the beautiful National Park.

    Nelson our guide was very helpful and informative, also very easy to get along with. Showed us the least populated spots around the hike for beautiful views and refreshing dips in lagoons and waterfalls. Nelson has a deep passion for hiking and the culture of the place. He was also very accommodating for everyones needs and capabilities throughout the hike. We loved every bit of the journey with Nelsons guidance. I would recommend this trip to anyone seeking adventure and the best that Geres has to offer!!

    It was one of the best activities we had during our vacation in Portugal.
    As nature lovers, it was part of our travel plan to visit the only National Park in Portugal.
    The place itself is fabulous, with lush forests, waterfalls, lagoons, and breathtaking views; we also had luck to come across wild animals (horses and goats).
    And all this accompanied by Bruno, a super fun, communicative guide, who took us to beautiful corners of the Park via Quad-Bike trip. We got to know a little of the stories, culture and traditions of the villages that exist within the Park, not forgetting, of course, the local gastronomy - Eating and crying for more.
    I highly recommend this tour to nature lovers visiting Portugal.
    Thanks Bruno.

    This is a great day tour to see the beautiful scenery of Geres National Park. Ricardo was an excellent guide and he brought us to select scenic spots--viewpoints, mountain streams, pools, which we really enjoyed.

    Pink My Bike is an amazing company run by 3 guys with a huge passion for what they do. Joao, Pedro and Francisco are the nicest guys you can meet, they welcomed us to our tour with explaining everything down to the little details and made us feel completely comfortable before we started, and I must say the customer service from these guys is some of the best I have ever experienced :). The Honda Monkey bikes are a great bike to explore Portugal on, and soooo much funnn :). We were also provided with an intercom system so we could all speak to each other while riding, this was a great touch. The routes we took were just beautiful, so many amazing things to see and amazing food to eat, plus the hotels we stayed at were incredible and very much needed after a full days riding. Unfortunately the weather wasn't the best for us but Pink My Bike were there constantly to make sure we were all safe and were having fun. Despite the weather being bad, me and my friends had an amazing adventure that we all will never forget, and I can't recommend this company enough, don't hesitate to book if you're thinking about it, you wont regret it, 10 out of 10 for this company, thanks again to the Pink My Bike Team, I'm excited to book another tour with them in the future.
