Overview

Welcome to Peak Tours’ Portugal end to end, another great adventure on two wheels! Riding in Portugal is a pure joy, it is the antithesis of the hustle and bustle of normal life. The roads are generally good surface and the traffic is minimal. This is a hilly trip in parts, especially in the first four or five days and should be prepared for with adequate training, but the gradients are generally much more manageable and the mileages are less than on many of our end to end tours which allows more time for relaxation in the afternoon/evening.
