Beautiful waterfall views - Really enjoyed this whole day tour around Geres led by Rosario who gave info on where we were walking and the waterfalls we saw. Beautiful weather to enjoy the walks to the waterfalls although I decided not to swim I liked that it was an option and the highest viewpoint to see the whole valley was amazing. Enjoyed trying the portugese picnic food for lunch too.

Absolutely Worth It! - This was such a fantastic experience! And our tour guide Teresa was WONDERFUL! It was so lovely being led by someone so kind, knowledgeable, and bubbly who also has such genuine love for the land and environment! We packed in so much, it is hard to pick a favorite thing about this experience. Definitely worth it!

Magical holiday memories! - An amazing day out. Maia was the BEST guide, so friendly and informative, helping us all to have the best day. My son is still talking about how cool he was. The day was magical, swimming in the pools will forever be a favourite memory of our holiday in Braga. Thanks to Maia for making our tour unforgettable 🤩

Geres National Park Full Day trip - Had a lovely day trip from Porto to the national park. Marco was our guide for the day and his local knowledge was excellent. The trip consisted of a 90 min drive to and from the National park in a group of 8. On the way up to the park we stopped at a small village and then various stops to see some amazing scenery. We also did some not too challenging hiking and visited a few different waterfalls where we could swim if we liked. Lunch was provided and collected from a local restaurant within the park - this consisted(for me) of Tuna roll. vegetable pastry, cake, apple and bottle of water and was good and ample enough. We ate the picnic at one of the waterfalls which are all otherworldly! Marco was easy going, friendly and chilled and very attentive and making sure all were okay in the group. There was plenty of rest time throughout the day as well to relax and take in all the stunning scenery. A great excursion which is a must do if visiting Porto and a good escape from the city for a day. Thanks again Marco. Lee and Carolyn UK

The Pools Were Worth the Hike! - My husband and I, along with two other couples, spent an incredible full-day hiking tour to natural pools with Daniel as our guide—and it was easily one of the highlights of our week in Portugal. From the moment he picked us up at our hotel, Daniel was both professional and genuinely friendly. On the drive to our first hiking spot, he shared fascinating insights about the national park and its history, setting the tone for a thoughtful and well-curated experience. Daniel tailored the hike to match our group’s abilities and made sure we felt safe and supported throughout. He led us to the most breathtaking natural pool I’ve ever seen—secluded, serene, and far from the usual tourist paths. We visited another stunning pool before enjoying a delicious, authentic Portuguese lunch that gave us time to relax and soak it all in. After lunch, Daniel took us to the top of nearby mountains, where the views made us feel like we were standing on the edge of the world. It was magical. Thank you, Daniel, for such a memorable adventure. Even Mimi can’t wait to go hiking again!

One day is not enough! Beautiful park and fresh lagoons - Amazing day with energetic and positive guide Teresa and group of 7 to Gêres. We learned a lot about the park, stopped at beautiful viewpoints, nice hike (would have loved more!), swimming in the lagoons and even jumped from a rock in the water at the waterfall.

Nice place, nice people - A must-see, welcoming city that has been able to highlight itself, we have been there for thirty years.At the time it was grey and in bad condition, but a lot of efforts have been made, the city is reborn and passed Lisbon because of its dynamism.
