Not your typical travel company

We’re António and Vitor – lifelong friends turning 28+ years of local know-how into personal journeys through Portugal

Planning a trip to Portugal can feel overwhelming. There is so much to see, but it is hard to know what is real and what is just another tourist stop.

That is where we come in.

We are António and Vítor, two lifelong friends with decades of experience exploring our country. In 2013, we started RIDE351 to help travelers discover the real Portugal through local eyes.

Since then, we have guided over 570 guests on tailor-made journeys across the mainland, Azores and Madeira. Each trip is shaped by your interests and our local knowledge, from surf beaches to vineyard lunches, quiet villages to island hikes.

No big buses. No fixed itineraries. Just honest advice, warm hospitality and unforgettable moments from start to finish.

This is not our story. It is yours. We are just here to help you live it well in a place we are proud to call home.

Meet your Portugal insiders…

Vitor Gomes

“I fell in love with the ocean in 1994 and surfing has been part of my life ever since. I’ve traveled abroad but always feel most at home exploring Portugal.

This project is about more than travel. It’s a way to share the places and experiences that shaped me.

I want you to feel what I feel out there. So let’s ride some waves, swap stories and discover the real Portugal together!”

António de los Santos

“I’ve always been drawn to nature, culture, food, wine and photography. It’s the spirit of adventure that keeps me exploring and looking for new experiences.

RIDE351 is a way to share that passion. It’s not just about showing Portugal… it’s about connecting through the stories and moments we experience together.

Join us on the journey. It’s meaningful, it’s hassle-free and it’s always fun!”
