There are parts of Northern Portugal that simply don't appear on the itinerary of a normal trip. The nature reserves along the Atlantic coast, the estuaries, the villages inland — they require someone who has built access to them, not just directions to them. That's what a day with Livin' Easy looks like. A private Land Rover, a guide whose knowledge goes beyond geography, and a structure that exists only to serve your group. The landscape moves from reserve to coast, from estuary to open water. The day fills according to what interests you — a boat across the lagoon, time on horseback, lunch at a table we have a relationship with, a ceramics session with an artisan, birdwatching as the afternoon quiets down. Every moment captured from above with professional drone footage, delivered to you after. Private throughout. Collected from your hotel or Porto airport.
