Cycling Portugal’s Alentejo Region
“My husband and I enjoyed two back to back cycle tours – Wild Algarve and Castles and Wine, in October 2019. We felt spoiled by the exceptional service provided on these fully supported tours. I can’t say enough about our support team, Mario and Jorge in Algarve, Maria and Joanna in Alentejo. Portugal is a beautiful, welcoming country that can stand on its own. It was our guides and van drivers who made the trip extraordinary. They were knowledgeable, fun, easy going yet professional, and truly made our trip awesome. (…) I have no hesitation in recommending Portugal Best Cycling as truly Portugal’s BEST.”

Biking in Portugal’s Alentejo Region
“We enjoyed a wonderful self-guided bicycling tour in the Algarve in August. Portugal Best Cycling made all the arrangements for the cycling trip from start to finish and everything was perfect. (…) Sometimes we were riding along the coast, coming upon beaches or stunning cliffsides, while at other times we were inland and riding through sparsely-populated farmland or park land. The routes pass through towns at just the right time for a snack or lunch. We were impressed with the lodging as well. (…) We would happily plan another self-guided cycling trip with PBC!”

Cycling in Portugal’s Algarve Region
“We did the self-guided Castles and Wine tour in Portugal and could not have had a better experience (…) no tour company to date has matched thier level of professionalism, and attention to detail. The routes and day to day instructions were also the best and most accurate we have encountered. Mario’s presentation the day before we started was funny, and professional.”
