We did 5 tours in 5 days, Duoro Valley Wine, Tuk Tuk Tour Lisbon, Sintra, Duoro River Sunset Cruise, but this was by far our best trip!! Ricardo is very knowledgeable, gives you an in-depth understanding of the area, the mines, types of plants and you will get the best views in Portugal. His wealth of the local neighborhood came through and his kindness was appreciated. This is a must, explore the land via a true 4x4 experience!!
Response from Host, May 2026

Thank you so much for the kind words! We’re really happy you enjoyed the experience, the views and learning more about Porto and the surrounding mountains. Thanks again for the recommendation and for joining the adventure! 😊

Unexpected! The driver drove the 4x4 along gnarly roads in a hilly area (not fabulously scenic but truly gnarly!) to a terrific viewpoint over metro Porto. Then, a stop at a truly local cafe for a quaff. Felt very personal and genuine. Just enough hair raising ride.
Response from Host, Apr 2026
Love that description 😄 “gnarly” is exactly the vibe we go for! Glad you enjoyed the mix of rough tracks, local stop, and that final view over Porto. It’s all about keeping it real and a bit exciting. Thanks for coming along! 🚙

Ricardo was friendly, chatty and hospitable. He was punctual and extremely knowledgable of the area and locals. If you enjoy history, nature and getting away from the rush of busy life - this is the perfect excursion to go on. I’ve never seen a Land Rover driven so well!
Response from Host, Apr 2026
Thank you so much for your comment! It was a great pleasure to have you and share a little of the history and nature of our region. I'm very happy to know that you managed to disconnect from the fast pace of everyday life. As for driving the Land Rover... well, let's just say I know every stone on the road!
I hope to see you again soon for another adventure.

This is run by the owner. It is exceptional and besides seeing great views, you are treated to the local flavor of the region. Ricardo, was a wonderful host and driver. I cannot recommend this more. We had a fantastic time, ate regional cookies, drank regional wine, and met a countryside worth seeing.
Response from Host, Nov 2025

Hope to see you again for another ride! 🚙🌄

Awesome!!!! So fun!!!!!
Josue and his partner were very communicative prior to the tour because of weather consigns but all worked out well !!
We were taken out of the city to the mountains within minutes. First stop was to a local cookie factory owned by generations of the same family! We got treats and Josue bought us a gift! We felt special! Then it was off to the mountains!!!!! We leaned about the Romans and gold mining- and the deep caverns that mining resulted in. fascinating!!! He also educated us on the importance of “balance” in foresting eucalyptus trees. The views from the top were spectacular! We also got to walk through a tiny, self sustained village-what a wonderful setting! To end the trip we sat awarming locals and had a drink.
Can’t forget highlight the jeep!!! The ride in his jeep was so fun!!! It’s not the same if you don’t scream !!!! Josue loves what he does and takes good care! It’s not daily that you get to speed (carefully) down a mountainside in a jeep!!!!
Thank you so much! We will remember you and our trip!

Even though it was rainy and drizzled most of the day we had a great time. Our tour guides made sure we were picked up on time, had umbrellas and were just great at everything and provided us with so much information about the area. Could not have asked for a better excursion.

An unbelievable & unexpected 4-wheel mountain hiking tour. It gave us incredible experience on surfing the hill tops and running through some dip slopes among the journey.

We did the 4x4 tour with Ricardo, and it was honestly one of the best activities we’ve ever done! Ricardo was extremely kind and attentive – he picked us up right in the city centre and drove us out to the area, making sure the whole experience was interactive. He shared history and stories about the place, answered all of our questions, and even offered delicious cookies (included for everyone).
The highlight was definitely the thrilling uphill and downhill drive with the 4x4 – Ricardo is a fantastic driver, and it was exciting and fun for all of us, even if we had all different ages. The whole tour was perfectly balanced between adventure, local insights, and moments to just enjoy the ride. It’s the kind of activity that makes you smile the whole time and leaves you wanting to do it again.
The tour ends with a refreshing drink and the ride back, which was the perfect way to finish.
Highly recommended – entertaining and unforgettable!

If you are looking for a rare and unique experience seeing the mountain area just outside of Porto, this is the tour for you. Very knowledgeable and safe guides who gave us a great history lesson and allowed us a peek into the small village culture of the area.

We had a blast riding thru the mountains with Ricardo! We really enjoyed spending time with him - such a nice man and so pleasant to speak with. One of the stops we did during the tour was to take a look at old mine shafts - crazy that there are still so many that are open on the mountain. Really glad they were marked and roped off - would've been a long way down!
Highly recommend this tour. The views were spectacular looking down on Porto!

SUCH a fun experience to do with my brother! Jósue was very friendly and knowledgable. The diversity of the places we visited (mountains, village, etc) made it an educational experience as well as a fun off-roading adventure. And the cookies were a plus!

Daniel_Z, Aug 2025
This is an awesome side trip while in Porto! Josue is a fantastic guide and driver, navigating the mountains over Porto with ease and curating a trip that was tons of fun. He found the balance of this obviously being FOR tourists, without feeling like a tourist trap sort of excursion. There were lots of lovely local touches that made this a unique trip that was a fun 4x4 adventure but also a glimpse into life slightly outside the city - to life in a tiny mountain village.
Response from Host, Aug 2025
Thank you so much Daniel!!
I wish you all the best, take care and have a great life...

This was a perfect ending to our Portugal experience! Starting from the perfectly timed and curated playlist Josué had (believe me, made the experience even more fun), the amazing views, the stories along the way, the healthy adrenaline rush we recieved and the personal touch that can be felt throughout the tour- felt like an old friend was showing us around. Perfect trip to do on your last day in Porto!
Response from Host, Jul 2025
Thank you so much Anete!!
It's a pleasure showing my country..
I wish you all the best, take care and have a great life :)
May_D, Jul 2025
This was such a fantastic experience! Ricardo, born and bred in Porto, was the perfect host to learn from an out about “green” wine, the families living here for generations, and the mine and forests of this beautiful country. Not to mention being Indiana Jones in a grand adventure riding a 4x4 on the bumpy terrain. Two thumbs up and perfect for kids and families 👍🏼

This jeep mountain excursion was hands-down my kids’ favorite part of our entire two-week trip! From the moment they hopped in the back of the jeep, they were grinning ear to ear. They especially loved being able to stand on the seats and feel the wind and bumps as we zipped down the hills — such an exhilarating experience for them!
Josue was an incredibly skilled and professional guide and driver — we felt completely safe and comfortable the whole time. He made the ride thrilling without ever compromising safety. Even my 75-year old mom had a fun time, and trusted the driver!
The scenery was absolutely stunning, the ride was exciting, and the joy on my kids’ faces made it absolutely unforgettable. In addition to the jeep tour, we loved the cookies at the old bakery and wine verde at the local bar.
Highly recommend this tour to families looking to add a little adventure to their vacation in Porto!

Me and my partner did an afternoon trip with Josue and had a brilliant time. Josue is incredibly knowledgeable about the area, and the trip he takes you on has some beautiful scenery and it offers a nice break from the hustle and bustle of Porto’s City centre. The trip lasts just over 3 hours we couldn’t recommend it enough to anyone looking for a trip out for afternoon.

We were very lucky to have the informative and welcoming Ricardo as our guide who spoke amazing English which is helpful as we are English visitors.
A lot more is included than expected, with a tour to one of the oldest cookie shops in Porto (free samples) and ended the day with a drink in the local bar.
Could not recommend more, well worth the money.
