Fantastic walk in the Serra D'Arga - high recommended!

My wife booked the full day experience, with tour of the waterfalls and making of broa or traditional corn bread. This was a fantastic experience in all aspects. Agostinho was very prompt and clear in all his communication with us, and also showed himself flexible when we had to change the date due to the weather. The bread making experience was wonderful and the lunch we had with the bread we'd made (with meats and cheese as well as local honey and spreads) was delicious and very filling. It ...read more

A Fabulous Experience in the Beautiful Serra D'Arga!

My sister and I booked this tour as we both enjoy unspoilt nature, hiking, and exploring a less travelled part of Portugal. We were so glad we did! Serra D'Arga is beautiful! It was so enjoyable to hike off the beaten track amidst natural streams and pools, the many waterfalls and old watermills, including one which is still used. A highlight was participating in the making of traditional cornbread in a wood fire oven and then enjoying it for lunch afterwards, together with regional jams, ch...read more

Leben in Portugal

Mit dieser Tour in die Serra d´Arga haben wir einen tiefen Einblick in die Schönheit der nordportugiesischen Landschaft und in das portugiesische Landleben erhalten und sind damit der Liebe zu diesem Land und der Heimatverbundenheit der Portugiesen ein gutes Stück nähergekommen. Unser Führer Agustinho hat uns abseits der Touristenströme geführt und uns mitgenommen in sein Heimatdorf. Gemeinsam haben wir auf einer kleinen Wanderung durch den Wald die geheimen Badeplätze seiner Kindheit in den k...read more

<p>Can't say enough about how amazing this tour and tour guide were! We traveled ALL over Portugal and this was literally the highlight of our entire Portugal trip!!! Gorgeous waterfalls and hike, amazing picnic, everything was done on our own time/pace, friendliest and most knowledgeable tour guide we had of all the tours we took in our 10 days of being there-you can tell he LOVES doing what he does and his excitement is infectious. If you can, I highly recommend asking about staying overnight...read more
