Vélo électrique des montagnes de Sintra à la mer de Cascais avec prise en charge à Lisbonne
Description
Il s'agit d'une activité en petit groupe (jusqu'à 5 participants). Nous trouverons notre chemin dans des sentiers calmes dans la forêt, loin de la foule. Nous atteindrons Peninha, un ancien monastère avec la meilleure vue de la région. Nous voyagerons du marché de Cascais à la forêt de Sintra par un chemin qui vous placera au centre d'un cadre rural avec des moutons, des chevaux et des potagers locaux. Lorsque nous atteindrons le couvent de Peninha, qui offre un panorama à 360 degrés sur la région, nous aurons traversé Quinta do Piso et remonté la forêt de Sintra. Après cela, nous nous dirigerons vers la plage de Guincho, où nous pourrons nous arrêter pour un déjeuner tranquille (non inclus), avant de passer à la populaire mais magnifique Boca do Inferno, la vieille ville de Cascais, et enfin de retourner à notre point de départ. Nous pouvons emmener les bébés et les enfants (0 à 6 ans) dans une remorque à vélo très confortable (avec suspension et sièges inclinables !). Il est couvert pour se protéger du vent et de la pluie, si tel est le cas.

Our bike tour with Rodrigo was excellent! He communicated well prior to the excursion. Rodrigo adapted the tour to the two of us because we had biking experience, souvenir shopping desire and were the only ones biking that day. Rodrigo was punctual in picking us up from our hotel, personable and shared lots of information about Lisbon and Cascais. We definitely will encourage our friends to book with him and we will as well when we return to the area.
Over some years of traveling, we’ve participated in many tours that were “knock our socks off” great. I think our e-bike tour with Júliano has set a new standard that will be hard to beat. The trip went off exactly as described, and we couldn’t have been happier with our decision to spend the day this way. It’s a GREAT way to get off the beaten path, get some exercise, and learn more about the geography/layout of the area. Would do this again in a heartbeat. We were picked up on time at our Lisbon hotel by Rodrigo and driven to our starting point in downtown Cascais to meet the rest of our cycling group. Júliano was leading that day’s ride and we were soon making our way out of town on the Trilho das Vinhas through a beautiful and fascinating countryside.The pace was steady, yet we kept moving because we had a lot of ground to cover (There was a stop for water/info at a facility about an hour into the ride.) - through Sintra Forest up to the top of the mountain for a couple of amazing viewpoints looking over Lisbon and the Atlantic. Then downhill to the beach for lunch (delicious, fresh options) before completing the 22 mile circuit back to Cascais (mileage as per Apple Watch- so don’t hold me to it.) The tour ended where it began - at the Cascais train station, where we could easily get a ticket and ride back to Lisbon. The e-bikes are great. You still have to peddle, but you have levels of assist. Most of the day was at a lower level (could have done without, but… why?) On the mountain climbs, I couldn’t have done it without the assist, but I guess that’s the beauty of e-bikes. My husband is ready to go e-bike shopping- so maybe that’s as good a testament as any?
My son and I had a wonderful adventure around Cascais and enjoyed having Pedro as our guide. It was a lot more legwork than I was expecting, even with an E bike, but I really appreciated the workout when we were going uphill. All of the views were spectacular, so I highly recommend this tour for those who enjoy a more active exploration of that area of Portugal.
We (family of 4) had so much fun on this ride! Juliano was very knowledgeable of the area and attentive at all times. We met him at the beach and immediately got riding, no time wasted on this tour! Saw many, many scenic views, especially at the top of the mountain. Stopped for lunch at a beachside cafe that was beautiful with great food (always buy your guide lunch if possible). 10/10 would recommend, and if you want a work out, you can avoid turbo mode.
We absolutely loved this adventure. Our guide ( Julian I think that's correct spelling) was great!!!! He showed us the beauty of CasCais Portugal and then we rode into the mountains of the Cascais and Sintra Forest. Stunning views. We then transition down the mountains through small villages and ended up on the coastline and had lunch at a great little restaurant overlooking the ocean in beaches. The final ride into town was great as you transitioned along the ocean.. if you can ride a bike, I highly advise you to try this e-bike tour.. One of the highlights of our trip
Rodrigo took amazing care of us and showed us the beautiful sites of the area. Despite the recent storms Rodrigo made sure we were on a safe route. The lunch stop had amazing views. We enjoyed Rodrigo’s informative tour and I plan to book this again when I return to Portugal in the future.
It was an amazing experience from the start to finish. Rodrigo was a fun and friendly guide. Would thoroughly recommend this trip.
What a fantastic experience! My teenage boys and I loved our day out with our guide Juliano. The national park and coastline are peaceful and beautiful. The cycling was made easy by the e-bikes and the route was perfect for my boys to enjoy but also for me (a nervous mountain biker!). Thank you Juliano!
Had an excellent time with Rodrigo and Juliano. We were picked up from our hotel which made it very convenient for us. Beautiful scenery along the way, bikes very easy to ride! We definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Portugal! Thanks again for a great time, your Downers Grove, Illinois connections, Michael and Maritza Meifert
Fun bike ride through the mountains and along the coast! Rodrigo was very friendly and made sure we were all comfortable in the few sections of the tour that took you through Cascais.
