We live a truly special experience at the 4x4 Jeep Tour in the Serra da Estrela. It was an unforgettable day, lived in family, with absolutely stunning landscapes and a journey thought out to the detail. The balance between adventure, knowledge and contemplation was perfect. Our guide, Pedro, made all the difference. The way you shared the history of the mountain, the rocky formations and the local curiosities brought a completely different dimension to the tour. We always felt accompanied with care, professionalism and a lot of sympathy. The stops were very well chosen, the pace was calm and adjusted, and the whole day flowed naturally. We recommend without hesitation to those who want to discover the Serra da Estrela in an authentic and memorable way. We will definitely be back. Joanna Martins

An adventure in the Lousã mountains
All very good. Our guide Rafael showed a general knowledge of the places above average, an availability and disposition of extreme professionalism and made the whole adventure a collective fun. Congratulations Trans Serrano and thank you Rafael.

Our mountain experience
What a great tour experience we received from Daniel Almeida in February 2025. He entertained us, he educated us, and his driving skills were certainly appreciated. His contact with a local restaurant allowed us to enjoy a wonderful traditional lunch, and I was also able to purchase some of the amazing mountain cheese I had been looking for at another local shop! The mountain elevations, driving up and down the switchbacks, and having plenty of opportunity to take pictures, has created an everlasting memory.

Guided visit
It was a very positive experience. We were accompanied by the guide Daniel, whom we could not fail to praise, for his explanations full of knowledge and experience, endowed with an enormous sympathy and hospitality. We recommend closed eyes.

Trip to Lousã (Serra) stoping in some key spots and villages
We had a fantastic time thanks to the outstanding attention of both collaborators! Our group was large and excited to have some fun, and they absolutely delivered. They were incredibly flexible, quickly reading the room to match the energy of the group while still weaving in fascinating insights about the local culture and history. Their positive spirit was contagious, and by the end, we all felt we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Definitely a ride to repeat!
