We had a wonderful day on this adventure! Our guide Luis was very personable and we learned a lot about the area as he drove us from Porto to the park.

When researching day trips from Porto, I knew we wanted to visit Geres and happily found Oporto Adventures. You can tell the company places importance on giving back to the community and offsetting their effects on the landscape and it was nice to see/be a part of that process.

An absolutely beautiful day and wouldnt hesitate to recommend for any other adventures.
Amazing day! Perfect way to experience the park: small hikes to beautiful view points. Luis was a great guide and was super knowledgeable about the area. Definitely recommend!

Tour manager can make a good trip bad and vice versa. Our tour manager, Afonso was just awesome - full of life and very particular about the safety and well being of passengers. Hats off to him !
