My wife and I were fortunate enough to schedule a 12 day trip guided by Antonio and Vitor from Ride351. We're in our early 50s and had been to many of the tourist sites in Portugal previously on a self-guided trip. This time, we wanted a trip focused primarily on surfing and beach towns, while also enjoying excellent local food, wines, and cultural experiences. Antonio and Vitor did a great job on short notice crafting a tour that had everything we wanted and much more! They arranged hotels and restaurants, did all the driving, rented all the gear, introduced us to places, food, wine & people we wouldn't have found on our own, and they provided illuminating insights from their wealth of knowledge and personal experiences. They are professional, considerate, creative, flexible, and pleasant travel companions.

As my wife had never surfed, it was especially important to me that she could explore other interests as desired while I was out surfing with Vitor - usually about 1/2 the day. Antonio ensured she never got "stuck" at a remote beach and Vitor, an experienced surf instructor, did an excellent job giving my wife a surf lesson - she had a great time and was able to stand on the board! We wish we could have stayed longer, and the next time we head to Portugal, we'll look forward to reconnecting with the team at Ride351.
