Amazing experience

It was a well planned and executed trip. All the details were taken care of. We really enjoyed it even though my daughter before the trip had food poisoning. She was taken care of by everyone specially Dinish and Tomaz.

Most Inspirational Moment

Biking along the Atlantic and beautiful views.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Dinish was really amazing with the right temperament and leadership qualities needed to lead a group of 14 individuals with different needs . He motivated us to keep biking and giving the best. We would love to do more tours with him.

Advice for Potential Travellers

Training for this bike ride is important or else go with ebike option

One of the best cycling tours Exodus offers!

I had such an amazing time on this Porto to Lisbon cycling trip. The routes were beautiful and varied, from coastal paths and sandy beaches to charming villages and historic towns like Óbidos. The pace felt relaxed and manageable, with plenty of stops to enjoy the scenery, food and local culture. The hotels were lovely and well located, and everything was really well organised from start to finish. It felt like the perfect balance of activity and downtime, and a great way to see Portugal in a more immersive way. I’d highly recommend it to anyone wanting an active but enjoyable escape. This is also ideal for first time cyclists!

Most Inspirational Moment

Cycling along the Atlantic coastline with endless ocean views was incredibly inspiring, especially the stretch through the dunes and lagoons near São Jacinto.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Our group leader was fantastic—friendly, knowledgeable and really well organised throughout. They made everyone feel comfortable from the start and struck the perfect balance between being supportive and giving us space to enjoy the ride at our own pace. Their local knowledge added so much to the experience, from route insights to food recommendations, and they handled everything smoothly behind the scenes. It made the whole trip feel easy, relaxed and really enjoyable.

Advice for Potential Travellers

Pack light but smart—comfortable cycling gear, a good pair of padded shorts and layers for changing coastal weather make a big difference. Don’t underestimate the sun, even with the sea breeze, and bring proper sun protection.

Fantastic trip

It was a beautiful ride, every day a little bit different. Joao was an excellent guide.

Most Inspirational Moment

The amazing Atlantic views at Mira and Sao Pedro de Moel

Thoughts on Group Leader

Excellent. Told us each day what to expect with expert knowledge and made me as a fairly inexperienced cyclist at my ease. It is important to be prepared and confident though.

Advice for Potential Travellers

Be prepared for long days but the coffee stops are great. All restaurants are well chosen so beautiful meals.

Porto to Lisbon

First cycling trip — we loved every part of this 5-day ride.

Most Inspirational Moment

The never-ending, fascinating scenery — from the beaches to the hills on the final days. All destinations were amazing but Óbidos is one of our favourite.

Thoughts on Group Leader

João Colaço is an avid outdoor enthusiast with a passion for extreme sports. He is an excellent guide/leader sharing his knowledge and stories of this beautiful country.

Advice for Potential Travellers

We hadn’t cycled before in a group and chose the e-bike, which was spot-on for the final day.

I absolutely loved this trip!

I was a bit anxious at the beginning, but our guide João was incredible—he made us feel confident, safe, and motivated throughout. The group was wonderful, and the organisation by João and Tony was exceptional. I loved everything about the experience—even the long, challenging hills with strong headwinds! I couldn’t have done it without an e-bike and such a great leader. Thank you so much for an unforgettable adventure!

Most Inspirational Moment

Reaching the top of each climb, wind in my face, amazed by the scenery and by what I could do!

Thoughts on Group Leader

João was an exceptional leader— always professional, kind, and full of energy. His clear and engaging briefings, flawless organization, and warm personality made the trip unforgettable. Every evening he brought the group together with great dinners and wonderful company.

Advice for Potential Travellers

E-bike for sure!
