He gave really good and clear instruction on the e bikes and made regular stops throughout the trip to tell us about the history of the area as well as to take in the incredible views. We covered over 10 miles but it was not at all difficult as the e-bikes flew up the hills making this a great activity for all ages. We were a family of 4 with teenagers and we all really enjoyed it.”

Ride from Lisbon through Sintra’s palaces, forests, vineyards, and coast to Cascais on a small-group e-bike tour with a local guide.

“This was a great trip with so much beauty to experience along the way from Sintra to Cascais. Bruno was our tour guide and with his knowledgeable, safety skills, warm smile and recommendation for lunch, made the trip fun. I definitely recommend this trip for all that like to explore a little off the beaten path. My recommendation would be to take a warm jacket or lots of layers. Though the weather said 18, I was underprepared and if not for Betsy (on the tour), who was kind enough to lend me her down jacket my experience might have been different. My only recommendation to the tour company would be…”

Bikes were in great shape. Our guide Miguel was knowledgeable of the area and respectful of rules of the road. We actually overshot the tour time because he gracefully answered many of our extra inquiries. Très gentil. Definitely recommend.”
