We went on a wonderful hike with Joao. The scenery was beautiful and we ended it with a picnic up on a rock that Joao somehow coaxed my reluctant wife to scramble up. A wonderful and unique experience!

We did this as a team-building event with a group of colleagues and it was hands down, one of the best experiences I have been on. The team were very flexible and helpful throughout the booking process. We used a full service including pick up and drop off at the hotel, I would definitely recommend doing this if you're a group. The hiking route was breathtaking. Our guides were true natives who truly love Cascais and that was evident in how they spoke of their town and in the beautiful places they showed us. would highly recommend!

My little one (5 year old) went for a morning hike and climbing with the team at Cascais. He felt so big and happy when he got back. We will definitely register him again. It was a great nature experience for him

Cascais Routes offered us a wonderful experience in nature. João is a real local that knows the secret spots and great hiking trails. He is a guy of nature and shares that feeling with passion. His trips are a real adventure without losing safety out of sight. We will definitely join him again! He also offers great birthday parties for kids in nature..
