Top Bike Tours Portugal

Six Seattle recreational cyclists (58y to 66y) review of Top Bike’s supported Portuguese Camino route. Top Bike delivered and enabled our group to experience an amazing trip! We had good luck with the weather for the entire week (13-19Oct25)— cool mornings and temperate afternoons; no rain. The five-star rating is for all the logistics, accommodations, equipment, support van (snacks and breaks), and excellent support staff (guidance and safety — lead, sweeper cyclists, and van driver) provided by Top Bike. Their support staff provided excellent service and encouragement, along with new or almost new MTB Trek (29-wheel) bikes used on this trip. The rest was up to us: one’s attitude and aptitude (cycling skill level) made this a challenging, arduous, fun and satisfying journey. Take care to read and adhere to the “requirements - additional information” for this trip — no medical or mobility issues, 6-8 hours of riding - 8am to 4pm, and a moderate physical fitness level. Preparation by training to climb moderate hills and unpaved gravel paths, is a plus for this trip. There were many different surfaces, cobblestones, boardwalks, busy urban streets, congested narrow bridges, traffic circles, tight turns and zigzags on village roads, sandy paths, many short to moderate climbs, and long descents on highway roads. Our group was challenged but found the stamina (remember your chamois butter) to enjoy this memorable vacation and experience spectacular coastal scenery, the castle, the tower by the river, the food (especially the seafood), historical chapel and churches, and biking vibe from the support staff and the rest of the group 16 total riders, and the elation of final walk into the Plaza del Obradoiro. We can’t stress enough how valuable the support staff was to us and how deserving of 5 stars+plus 5 more to João, Felipe, and Alberto were. Would we do it again? Yes, definitely! But…maybe we’ll opt for e-bikes next time! Bom Camniho!, Buen Camino!, Good travels and be safe by way of St. James.

Porto to Lagos on a 22 day cycle adventure exceeded our expectations. Excellent support, navigation and accommodations made our trip memorable.

We had the most fantastic Camino ride with Top Bike Tours Portugal. The staff were super friendly and helpful and went out of their way for us. They were always at the other end of a WhatsApp call or message, never mind the time. The bikes were great and all the extras we were given with the bikes were so thoughtful. Will definitely recommend them and would love to do another trip with them. Thank you Too Bike Tours and your amazing team!

This past April I went on a ten-day tour from Porto to Óbidos with Top Bike Tours Portugal, led by Sergio himself, our super knowledgeable guide, and sweeper João, who kept us laughing. Alberto, the kindest SAG driver ever, followed and entertained us. It is a forever highlight of my life. My e-bike was in perfect condition. Not only did staff provide water and snacks at rest stops, but also safe routes, encouragement and fun during the entire trip. Not a confident enough biker to photograph while riding, I returned home with mental images of breathtaking ocean views after navigating through the steep curves of a hill. These images will always be etched in my mind, along with countless digital ones. Top Bikes Also wanted our American group to learn more about the history and culture of Portugal by organizing tours to a cork museum, a salt museum, and a ceramics museum, as well as several city walking tours. Sergio also arranged a group dinner with traditional fado music. During the trip, the seafood, sweets, and soups were amazing, and each hotel was excellent and unique. I strongly recommend Top Bikes Tours Portugal!

My 10 days in Portugal with Top Bike Tours was one of the best in my life— and I am an inveterate traveler. Sergio, João and Alberto paid such great attention to our needs, local experiences and safety! And they all had such warmth and sense of humor. I had an unexpected injury on the bike tour (my fault) and they took wonderful care of me. I will always be grateful to them for introducing me to Portugal’s beautiful scenery and its unique history. But it was their expertise, and more than that, their personal warmth, that made my trip so special. Thank you for the trip of a lifetime!

Currently doing Porto Camino with Top Bike Tours. Excellent service. Outstanding accommodation and caring, considerate, humerous guides. Having a ball with my group and guides Filipe and Miguel.

We had the best time. Telmo and Pedro took such good care of us. The trip was amazing and we couldn’t have had a better group. The accommodations were all very nice. Great experience in beautiful Portugal. 🇵🇹

We just experienced the most full-filling journey on the El Camino from Porto to Santiago with these guys. Every aspect… riding coastal, trails through villas, vineyards, and mountains to the wonderful restaurants and great accommodations with wonderful new friends can be attributed to Sergio and Miguel with Top Bike Tours Portugal! 10 out of 5 Stars all the way. Thank you and we’ll see you again.

This was one of our best bike tours! The views along the Portugal seashore was majestic. Miguel and Felipe took very good care to prepare us for any challenging terrain as we went along the Portuguese Way Camino De Santiago trails. They took us to authentic Portuguese restaurants serving delicious food and made the riding a blast! Thanks for making this a special trip and fun adventure to remember. Mark and Julie A.

Top Bike Tours was an exceptional experience for me! Our two guides were fantastic, friendly, caring. The whole bike ride was planned perfectly, with the corrects distances each day. They also did a great job with getting meal reservations for us and great info on historical sites that we saw along the way. Excellent company. I would definitely use them again!
