Beautiful hike with gorgeous views! - This was truly an amazing trek! Our guide was very knowledgeable and very informative. We truly enjoyed the journey, it was by far our favorite experience during our trip to Portugal. If you are a hiker and want a very special experience I highly recommend this trip. When we were tired we took breaks, we brought food and our guide also brought a bunch of food to share with us. I was amazed at the beauty of this area. It was truly breathtaking and absolutely gorgeous!!!! The springs to drink from were fresh and delicious mineral rich water.

The Best Adventure ❤️‍🔥 - 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!!

Spectacular! - Spectacular! I went on a trip with my wife and my dog. As soon as we met with Nelson and Rui I saw it was going to be a day to remember, because our puppy instantly became affectionate to them (rare thing). My wife and I became acquainted with absolutely charming parts of the Gerês, and even had to do some dives in refreshing waterfalls. Nelson and Rui, with their infinite sympathy and kindness, were the perfect guides for a relaxed and memorable walk. An experience that we will undoubtedly repeat!

Find out!! - The Peneda-Gerês National Park is one of the most amazing places to visit, its natural beauty is everywhere. However, Gerês also has its secrets. This secret does not come demarcated in tour guides or itinerary maps. These secrets are revealed with the extensive exploration experience that Wild and Free tours has. This fantastic team revealed to my group of friends the best guarded secrets of our natural park. We visit waterfalls, crystal clear lagoons, see unique landscapes, enjoy the best gastronomy in the region, always accompanied by the excellent team of Wild and Free tours. My great thanks to Rui and Nelson for the animation and professionalism with realized this unique experience to me and my friends! Remarks are guaranteed 😉

Amazing day!! - The private excursion through the Natural Cascades and Lagoas of Gerês is undoubtedly a spectacular experience to do, with friends, family and all adventurers and nature lovers! Wild and Free is an amazing team to do these adventures, show the corners and corners of all paths and make us feel safe and serene in the middle of Mother Nature! I can’t wait to repeat more experiments with Wild and Free and with my friends. We are all eager to dive back into the lagoons, which after a good walk is the best one can have, we are soon ready to continue the way!

Beautiful but careful - Difficult access to go down to the bottom...I doubt there are other accesses to go... Recommended for agile people and equipped with good shoes. It is indicated that fatal accidents have already taken place... So go ahead with the utmost care.... After this important safety detail, the natural site is beautiful to be able to swim in these crystal clear waters and jump from the rocks.
