We had a wonderful experience with Luis and made an unforgettable beautiful memory. It was a very last minute decision for us (we booked around 11:30 pm the night before our trip) and we could only book for the next day, but sent an email quickly to Oporto agency and luckily we could go join the group the next day - thank you again for this fast reply! Our guide was Luis, who turned out to be interesting, kind, positive, considerate, very intelligent, thoughtful and above all, who really loves his job and the nature - which all made our experience amazing. With his guidance, we enjoyed a fun and safe trip in the nature, kayaking, hiking, eating at a local restaurant (the food was yummy! the kind you cannot see at a touristic restaurant), chatting with Luis and other tourists. - The weather also helped as it was all sunny, breezy without a single cloud. Luis was really kind and helpful and I was really grateful for everything. It has remained as one of our best memories in Portugal and I recommend everyone to book this tour and if your guide is Luis, consider yourself as lucky. @Luis, thank you again for everything. We hope to see you next time we visit Porto for canyoning.…

Want some fresh air and awesomely good time in the best area in Northern Portugal - scented woodland enveloping the hills and clear water in creeks - I took a tour on kayaking and trekking yday - and it was such a lovely experience, I was blown away. And you can still swim in pristine rivers! just a bit cool in first dip then it was real pleasure. I even tried the paddle board first time in my life, and could not believe how easy it was. Sun was shining brightly after the morning haze lifted up (which is absolutely lovely btw) and traditional food in historical village so tasty. Yum! I also fell in love with the waterfalls - and yes I have been to a few travelling around the world - there is magic in the air in Geres and the guide Luis really took great care of our small group: he is also the best off road driver I have met! Took the land rover through any terrain as well as told the history of the place - fascinating. The Park is so wonderfully peaceful, it fees like being closer to the core of the Universe, real connection with the nature. I had a wonderful full day and met interesting and lovely people. …

Had an amazing time, Luis our guide was amazing. Very friendly, welcoming and up for a bit of fun. Kayaking, waterfall and the hiking inbetween were great. The lunch was also fantastic, authentic and felt like a local, with a bit of local green wine to accompany. Would 100% recommend. …

We had great day with our attentive and calm guide Pedro, whose interest in nature, animals, people and world phenomena was fun and inspiring. If you want to know something about plants or animals in Portugal, just ask him! We also got perfect weather to hike and swim in a crystal clear lagoon under a waterfall. We apparently also had the perfect timing as we were the only people at the waterfall and we had the privilege of enjoying its beauty in tranquility.…
