Suspension Bridge - Petito was our guide and he was fantastic. He was knowledgeable, personable, and funny. He gave us the information about the suspension bridge, how and when and who built it. Great tour

Very recommended tour! - This excursion was fantastic—we were amazed by the nature in Gerês National Park. The hiking trail is easy, but good hiking shoes with a sturdy sole are still necessary—sneakers for the city are not suitable. The nature in the national park is breathtaking, and the trip is highly recommended! Everything was perfectly organized: we were picked up directly in front of our hotel, and in the afternoon, we enjoyed a delicious lunch with authentic Portuguese dishes at a small village restaurant. Our guide, Daniel, took great care of us. He is very attentive, humorous, and knowledgeable, and the group had a truly friendly, almost family-like atmosphere. We are extremely happy and grateful that we booked this trip with Detours. A big thank you to Daniel and Detours!! 😊

Wonderful day exploring the park! - Francisco was a legend!! (According to our 2 teenagers, aged 15 & 17. ) He was punctual at pick up, welcomed us, got thru introductions and went through the day's itinerary before we loaded into the van. The van was spacious and comfortable and Francisco was an excellent driver. We stopped at a cafe for a quick snack and bathroom break on the way to the park and then spent time moving throughout various waterfalls and lookouts in the park. Francisco was very knowledgeable about the park, plants, surrounding communities and everything else about Portugal that we asked him. His personality fit very well with our family and we thoroughly enjoyed the day with him!! Our stop for lunch in Fafiao was very enjoyable, as was the village tour. We chatted the entire ride back to Porto and Francisco even left us with a dinner recommendation (although FYI Conga is closed Sundays AND Mondays). Definitely book this trip to see Portugal's only national park - and ask for Francisco!!

Value for money and lots of beautiful nature. - Francisco was the guide and he did a very good job. Lot of information about the national park and the wolves. The highlights were the viewpoints in the park, in one word: amazing!! Fantastic lunch with a nice glass of white wine and more…. I can say: it was the money worth.

Great tour and beautiful views - Would absolutely recommend this tour if you’ve never been to Porto, seeing the national park was amazing, we went to multiple view points where the views were incredible along with our tour guide Francisco who was friendly, funny and really knowledgeable. We felt really comfortable it was like going around with a group of friends, laughing together and discovering a new place.

Unforgettable tour in a movie setting - It was a very incredible experience! The Gerês park is a charming forest! A spectacular nature. Teresa is a wonderful, competent guide who dominates what she does and is passionate about her work, does with soul and dedication. What to say about lunch at the Lázaro and Dona Rosa restaurant. A banquet for the eyes and for the palate. Food with affection that welcomes us. I recommend this tour to everyone who goes to Portugal. It was a highlight of the trip! Unforgettable
