Guided and bespoke trips

We run guided trips across various parts of the country on set dates using our own routes. These trips are made with very small groups, allowing us to provide our guests with a fully personalised service and reduce our environmental footprint.

If you’re an adventurous or independent type of traveller and you’re looking for a tailor-made trip with a customised program or on specific dates, we organise bespoke self-guided trips meeting the preferences and requirements of each individual client or group.

Whatever the option, we take care of all the details of the trips to ensure our guests have many stories to tell when they return home. Based on our local knowledge of the country we can suggest the best routes, recommend the finest accommodation and take you to those secret places for the most genuine experiences, with a distinctive service that only someone local like us can provide.

In our tours, we privilege quality and environmentally friendly campsites, as wild camping is legally forbidden in Portugal. We also use charming countryside B&B’s and hotels with a “wow factor” where guests can enjoy the local culture, heritage and traditional cuisine with an added level of comfort.

Whether you want to join one of our guided trips or a fully tailored experience, please contact us for more details about our offer.

Fly and Drive with Hertz ^®

Portugal is just a few hours aways by plane from most European countries, which makes it an excellent destination for adventure trips, be it a simple weekend excursion or a two-week expedition. For those who do not wish to drive thousands of kilometers just to get here, we have set a partnership with Hertz^® for the rental of vehicles* that allow travellers to enjoy Portugal’s culture, natural wonders and remote places in comfort and total freedom.

What you need to know

These “fly and drive” trips are operated from Lisbon, Porto and Faro airports that work as departure and destination points. The vehicles are delivered by Hertz^®, with the rental contract according to the general conditions in place at the time. Depending on what’s been previously agreed, we’ll take you to the rental car station, where the vehicle will be fully equipped and ready to go. At the end of the trip, you just have to return the vehicle before taking your flight back home.

If your preferred option for accommodation is car camping**, the Hertz CAMPERS^® vehicles*** come equipped with a roof tent plus other optional accessories that will transform your trip into a real adventure in close contact with nature. As part of our service, we provide a GPS device loaded with the planned route, so that you get the most from your trip without worrying about the navigation.

The route and the tracks were previously recced by us to ensure they are accessible and safe to drive. For your comfort and safety, we will provide you with a folder containing all the necessary information to ensure you have a memorable trip, in full respect for the local communities, regulations and the environment.

Media trips and location scouting

After many years of driving Portugal’s back roads and off-road tracks, we have accumulated a deep knowledge of the whole country, the best landscapes, the local architecture and some of the most amazing places in each region. We have hundreds of kilometres of marked off-road tracks, and a vast photographic portfolio of the most beautiful places, landscapes, buildings and monuments in the country, suitable for photo and media productions. Based on this experience, we can provide professionals and production companies with all the support they need for their specific projects, right from the identification of the best suited locations to the logistical support required during the field work.
