“My husband and I did the bike tour with Rodrigo and it was honestly the highlight of our trip. We biked through Sintra-Cascais Natural Park and along the Cascais coastline with a lunch on the beach in between. The bike ride took us through magical looking trails and unbelievable views and sights that we wouldn’t have seen on our own. Rodrigo was an amazing guide and we cannot say enough about our experience. I will 100% suggest this tour to anyone going Portugal!”

Your guide chooses trails to match the group, and Jimmy is known for patient help with first-time riders. Expect about 30 kilometers of mixed terrain, a drink stop, and big ocean views.

“We had a lovely time with Jimmy. There was only 4 guests in total, so we were able to chat a little more than if it had been a big group. Jimmy was friendly and helpful. He clearly loves mountain biking and is at home on the island. We did the beginners trail, which was still quite challenging at times, and the terrain changed quite often, from rocks, to road, to dusty paths, to forest paths, to asphalt again. The ride down the mountain was a mixture of mountain biking and sightseeing and we felt that it might have felt smoother if it had focused on one or the other.…”
