From the Algarve to the northern mountains, discover Portugal on a high-performance or exploration-focused ride. Our road and gravel cycling trips take you deep into authentic landscapes with pro-level organization: optimized routes, smooth logistics, and expert local support.
From the Algarve coast to the Douro Valley, our road cycling tours in Portugal are designed for riders who want the routes a Tour de France pro would pick himself.
Each itinerary has been ridden, timed and refined by our local team. You bring the legs, we handle the rest: bike, support van, GPX, hotels and the best coffee stops on the route.
Portugal is one of Europe's best-kept gravel secrets. We've mapped 1 200 km of trails across the Alentejo backroads, Rota Vicentina coastal paths and Algarve hills.
Each gravel tour comes with a carbon gravel bike, support van, mechanic and a route that no Garmin algorithm could ever generate. Just real terrain, scouted on the ground.
Three ways to ride Portugal: guided, self-guided or tailor-made. Same roads, same team, same hotels. What changes is how much you want handled for you.
