    Our guide Emanuelle was excellent ; sorted everything , was very organised , friendly and knowledgeable. The tour was as promised. He updated us regularly on the time frames and tried hard to make sure everyone was always ok. The trip was a great day out - I would have loved to kayak more but we did as the tour stated (1.5 hours). It was just very relaxing. I did not realise the drive to the park was so far from Porto city centre so I would add that to the details of the trip. An excellent day finishing with a swim in a secret spot. Not a lot of walking involved on the tour - time restraints as distances travelled quite a lot. Lovely local lunch too. If you get Emsnuelle you will be well looked after. Christina and Phil

    We do have a great time with our tour guide, Emanuel. He is such a considerate and interesting guy. Thank you for the patience with kids. Kayaking and swimming by the falls is amazing! The views in national park and the music are also nice. Two thumbs up!

    Back home and missing Portugal 🇵🇹 Saudade! I had a great day in Geres with a nice small group tour and Sofia yesterday. I’m really happy i did this tour. It was amazing 😃 Sofia did a great job with driving us around in the mountains and she created a really nice atmosphere in the group, the 4x4 felt comfortable and when we met at pickup place I felt immediately at ease with her and during the day we really laughed a lot so there was a good energy / good vibes in the group and coming from being in the beautiful nature there 😃 I recommend it! Keep up the important good work 💪🏻🌿🌳🌱! Best regards, Annette

    We had an amazing time exploring the national park with Sophia! She was incredibly friendly and made the experience even more enjoyable. The scenery was breathtaking, especially the stunning waterfalls which were the highlight of the trip. The food was delicious and authentically traditional, which added a special touch to our day. The jeep ride was a cool and adventurous experience, it was a bit long day but despite that, we’d highly recommend this trip to anyone looking for a memorable outdoor adventure.

    Amazing day: kayaking in the morning, great lunch with local wine, finishing with swimming and jumping in a mountain lake with crystal clear water. Also the guide, Nuno, was very kind and taught us a lot about the region and Portugal itself.
