Cycling Tours in Portugal

14 tours available

Portugal is the only European country where you can cycle year-round. The Minho region in the north has flat riverside paths perfect for families; the Atlantic coast and Costa Vicentina deliver sportive cliff-top rides; the Algarve stays mild through winter; and the Camino Portuguese carries pilgrims from Porto to Santiago de Compostela. All our Portugal self-guided tours include hotels, luggage transfer and GPS tracks.

From the mild Algarve coast — rideable through winter — to the terraced port-wine slopes of the Douro and the green riverside paths of the Minho in the north, Portugal packs huge variety into short distances. The flat Minho is ideal for families, the Alentejo and Costa Vicentina suit gravel and mountain bikers, and the Camino Português draws pilgrims to Santiago. Luggage transfer and e-bike options feature on most tours.
