I have been fortunate to be part of our tour and hotel team for the last 20 years. One of my earliest adventures was trekking in the mountains of Gerês with my father when I was just 5 years old. Over the years, I've enjoyed various outdoor sports and developed a love for traveling by bike. For two years, I explored beautiful places like Australia, New Zealand, Thailand, Laos, India and Nepal. Eventually, I returned to Portugal and started our company. With a passion for the outdoors, I love guiding cycling tours, canoeing trips or even organizing unique outdoor events for company meetings. I feel grateful to share these experiences with others.
