Overview

A seven day, self-guided cycling holiday taking in some of northern Portugal’s finest coastal and cultural highlights. Cycling from Porto to Coimbra not only takes in two of Portugal’s most handsome and historical cities, but also Aveiro’s canals and lagoon, the Bairrada Wine Region and Choupal National Forest. This is an easy and totally exquisite cycling holiday, where you get a perfect mix of Atlantic wind in your hair, Portuguese seafood and great wine, and finishing off at one of Europe’s most underrated cities for academic heritage and fine architecture. Stay in a mix of mostly small, locally-owned hotels, with luggage transfers. Bike rental is included in the price of this tour, with an optional upgrade for e-bikes.
