Fantastic trip out near Porto - Our whole holiday was originally planned due to seeing this one experience online. Loved the pictures and the adventure of it so our destination was decided. Completely worth it for this trip alone. An amazing day out with a brilliant tour guide (Mauro) who was very knowledgeable about the area, as he’s local, the history and most other subjects related to Portugal! The bridge has timed tickets so they can manage the number of people who can cross (it’s a suspension bridge so there is a little bounce). The best part is that the walkways are all downhill and your guide meets you at the bottom. Spectacular views, great opportunity to meet new people, a chance to see a local village and try local cuisine. The pre-arranged lunch was one of the best we had in Portugal. Cannot fault this tour at all, easy to book and we have now used Viator on several occasions - never disappointed. First class tour from start to finish. (My teenage sons are not generally fans of tours as they don’t like to be on a schedule…they both loved this one). Very well-partnered with Ennetours too who provide excellent guides, comfortable transport, keep to schedule and are very personable.

Great day in the open - something different from being city bound. - Julioh was a great guide with the unexpected and wonderful addition of literary commentary! The suspension bridge was awesome with amazing views and well worth the experience. The Paiva walkways were easy downhill and followed the beautiful river. The lunch strip was authentic Portuguese both mains and sweets treats.

Amazing experience - Booked a tour with Viator and partners. Easy place to meet and get driven to the site. Cannot fault this day trip, great guide (Mauro very personable, informative and great sense of humour, keeping us all entertained with anecdotes during the drive). Stopped at a beautiful village on way there which is also where we came back to for an excellent lunch... absolutely divine local food. The bridge is an amazing sight and well-managed, information given by bridge guides and nice to do the crossing in a controlled way. Slightly hair-raising if I'm honest but a real sense of achievement when completing. The Walkways easy to do as the tour has been designed to follow steps downhill! Fantastic day, met some lovely people and great family memory.

Best tour ever - The tour was amazing. The walkway and the hike afterwards was incredible . The friendly service and lunch were even better.

Great experience! - Mauro was a great guide! He was friendly, entertaining, and knew lots of facts and history about the area. He made sure we were always comfortable and had a great way of talking to everyone in the group. The bridge was fantastic and the walk itself had spectacular scenery along the way. Highly recommend!

Enjoyed it! - Enjoyed the suspension bridge and the walkways. We had a great guide wjo arrived promptly and was very informative. We enjoyed a nice lunch and dessert afterwards together with the whole group

Had tasty authentic meal and green wine in Arouca and sweets in the town square, great guide! - The view was amazing, exhilarating feeling crossing a bridge that high, twice! Eco park is beautiful as are the walkways, even saw some goats!

Payva and 516 Bridge with Marco - A wonderful day with the guide Marco Botelho.. fun, easy,.. Marco a 10.……!!!! Spectacular walk and an incredible bridge crossing with the exact recommendations of our guide. Thanks Marco. Kings.

Fabulous day! - Our tour guide Joao (Ennetours) was fantastic, very professional, explained everything really clearly, the whole day was well organised. Joao was so knowledgeable about the area and knew a great deal on Portuguese history, really enjoyed listening to it and learning bits I never knew! Crossing the suspension bridge was a fun experience, and the walkway had some incredible views of the river and gorge. Lunch in Arouca was delicious, good hearty meal with green wine! Followed by sweet treats and a coffee or beer! Definitely recommend it, fabulous day, thank you Joao

Arouca bridge - What an incredible experience! Jao was a great host & very informative! We walked the paiva walk way at a leisurely pace & never felt rushed. We were able to take in the awe inspiring scenery. The lunch was really great! I definitely recommend this tour. It was a small group of 8. Frank bernal
