“Will and I did the Portugal - Lisbon to Algarve - ride ... and it was a delight. Yes, we’d be glad to talk to anyone who wanted more info and I’ll answer any question or just heartily recommend the trip! Will is an avid bicyclist and I am a more casual biker and this trip was great for us both.

Of course, the castle was a definite hi-light but we brought home many wonderful

stories to tell Loved it.”

Portugal’s Blue CoastCoasting along quiet back roads from Lisbon to the brilliant beaches of the

Algarve, we’ll experience a memorable montage of Portugal: magnificent

coastal seascapes, pastoral farmlands, working windmills, tiny fishing

villages and historical monuments such as Henry the navigator’s

navigational school perched on a wild headland over the algarve’s

blue waters. Lodgings include a 16th century

manor house, a luxurious country farm and

two nights in our favorite little castle

overlooking a lovely estuary.
