WALKING TOURS FOR EXPERIENCED HIKERS

4 of us went to Portugal for some active vacations and besides cycling we also booked a self-guided tour in the Southwest Coast with Live Love Hike. They met us at our hotel in Lisbon and transferred us to the coast to start our hike. We stayed in a great mix of rural hotels, all very comfortable, and hiked along this unexplored coastal area of Portugal. Some great scenic hikes along the rugged coast and clifftops of Arrifana, Carrapateira and Sagres with the ocean as backdrop. Beautiful beaches and coves, some of them almost deserted. Brilliant food, especially the fresh fish and seafood. Finishing the hike in a place like Sagres, right in the southern tip of the country is fantastic.

Outstanding from minute one! Our guide Daniel picked us up from our hotel and took us to Pinhão for a hiking tour. We had tremendous fun walking through the vineyards, along the river Douro. We then went for lunch at a local restaurant that Daniel recommended and it was superb. In the afternoon we went for a wine tasting at Quinta do Bomfim and then a boat ride, the whole day just couldn't have gone better!
