Great riding through beautiful scenery
We had a fantastic trip cycling down the coast from Porto. The rides were easy and mostly flat. Most of the cycling is on designated bike paths and takes you through beautiful and varied scenery. The accommodation was very nice and comfortable in great locations. Thanks Top Bike Tours.

Top Flight performance from TopBikeTours Portugal
After organizing and leading bike tours in European countries for over forty years we decided it was time to retire with a bike tour, and we picked Portugal for our retirement celebration. After researching several companies, we decided to go with the locals and we are very happy that we did. The entire experience with TOP Bike Tours Portugal on the Self Guided Porto to Lisbon Tour was very special including all the following:
Bikes - We wanted e-bikes and after discussing our preferences, Sergio, the owner, offered to get us new e-gravel bikes which allowed us to ride on the mostly paved route as well as the portions on dirt paths. Our interactions gave me a new respect for the care being taken by the owner to insure that we would enjoy our tour as well as his concern for safety. The bikes fit perfectly and we really enjoyed riding new Orbea e-bikes.
Hotels - We chose the upgraded hotels package and they could not have been better. They were all 4 and 5 star rated and well located, with accommodations for bikes. We were delighted with special welcome packages, such as chocolate covered strawberries with champagne in our room and a great massage at another stop. When we arrived at each hotel we were greeted by friendly staff members who perked up when we told them we were with TOP Bike Tours Portugal. Our luggage was usually waiting for us.
Restaurants - We were on our own for dinners, but not really. The route notes, available in printed and digital format, included excellent nearby restaurant suggestions. These same notes included points of interest along the route, even local coffee stops or gelato sources. A bike specific computer device using the Ride with GPS app kept us on track. Much of the riding was on dedicated bike two-way bike paths which run along state and local roads.
From the outset we found Sergio and his super staff to be extremely responsive, accommodating and committed to seeing that their guests' expectations were being met! The answer to any question was just a phone call or text away. They are the best and also run walking tours. Check out their website!!

Great trip with coastal views and ocean swimming
Great cycle trip. Porto to Lisbon reduced - guided. The coast was beautiful and I had a couple chances to swim in the ocean along the way. Effect from Hurricane Helen closed some beaches.
It was a small group (8) and two guides. Both guides were relaxed, easygoing competent and able to handle the varied levels of biking ability. Bikes were good. I used standard hybrid, some in the group used e-bikes.
We did not upgrade to premium accommodations and all were very comfortable, very clean and in great locations. It's the first time I've used Top Bike Tours Portugal and would highly recommend them.
