Great trip to the national park - Great trip to the park. It was a hot day but you could jump in the water at the waterfalls which helped you cool down. The guide was very nice and friendly.

An amazing tour of the national park with a small group, making the experience tailored and personalised! - Overall an incredible day and experience, would definitely recommend for anyone looking for a trip out of the city and looking for a bit of nature!
Our guide Rui Lago was fantastic - extremely knowledgeable and also passionate about the park and Porto in general. He was really engaging and made sure to chat with everyone to get to know us and also ensure that the days itinerary suited us all.
The day itself was driving through the scenic national park and making stops to go on short walks/hikes to get to waterfalls and viewpoints - I enjoyed this because it meant that I didn’t have to carry my bag (with my water, snacks, towel etc) and could leave it in the car.
The views were amazing and learning about the history and conservation efforts was also fascinating and insightful.
Thank you Rui for a great day!

Great views, nice waterfalls and lots of information - I totally recommend this tour, the views are breathtaking. The cascades and water lagoons were magnificent. The hike is nice and not too hard. We had many stops and a walk through an adorable village . Our tour guide Rui Lago is amazing. He gave us great information about the national park , oaks trees and wolves . He also helped my 70 year old mother all the way through out the hike, and took care of her as if she was his family. The sites were amazing and tour was very private. He even gave us water and brought the hats back to the hotel that we forgot in the car. I went w my mother and my 18 year old son.

A tour not to be missed, beautiful views, incredible culture and knowledgeable guide - One of the best tours we've ever done! Carlos was an absolutely fantastic guide and was full of fascinating information about not only Geres but also Porto and Portugal - lovely person to talk to whilst hiking through stunning scenery.
We got to swim in clear water pools at the bottom of picturesque waterfalls, hike through old and new villages and across various trails - each of which is tailored to the group and their ability, and learnt about the local cultures and history.
I'd recommend anyone considering this tour to bring cash! Some of the food places we went to wouldn't accept British cards so cash (Euros) really is a must!
Thank you Carlos for an unforgettable day!
