Reviews

"It was a wonderful 6 night self-guided tour throughout the Douro Valley. The service provided by Daniel and his team from start to finish was excellent. The lux hotels were very comfortable, the restaurant recommendations by LLHike were excellent. The GPS app guidance was similarly excellent. It was a great adventure discovering/exploring the Douro Valley. Daniel’s response to any of our questions was immediate. Have already recommended to our friend."

"None of us had visited Portugal before; the hike in the Douro was a fantastic way to learn about the history, and culture and enjoy the beauty of this valley. Our guide, Daniel, made every aspect a pleasure. His planning of hotels and wondrous restaurants was first-rate. His help on hiking trails was supportive, without being exhaustingly athletic, and his knowledge of the land and the wines made the trip a real addition to our appreciation of the country. Overall, he handled our group of active seniors with thoughtfulness and good humor. We are considering adoption."

"4 of us went to Portugal for some active vacations and besides cycling we also booked a self guided tour in the Southwest Coast with Live Love Hike. We stayed in a great mix of rural hotels, all very comfortable, and hiked along this unexplored coastal area of Portugal. Some great scenic hikes along the rugged coast and clifftops of Arrifana, Carrapateira and Sagres with the ocean as backdrop. Beautiful beaches and coves, some of them almost deserted. Brilliant food, especially the fresh fish and seafood. Finishing the hike in a place like Sagres, right in the the southern tip of the country is fantastic."
