7 City Bike Tours in Portugal Worth Booking

1.3-Hour Porto Highlights on a Electric Bike Guided Tour

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 4,392 reviews · 3 hours (approx.) · from $53Our pick

Ride Porto for three hours with a storytelling guide such as Sofia, Igor, João, or Ramón. The e-bike handles the hills while you visit Ribeira, Gaia viewpoints, São Bento, Porto Cathedral, Clérigos, and Livraria Lello from outside. Groups reach 15 riders, with private tours also available.

“Greta taught us so much about Porto and Gaia. She took the time to answer any questions and elaborate on the locations. Greta was also a good shepherd for our group of nine riders. Our only regret is doing this tour at the end of our stay in Porto. We could have saved a few tens of thousands of steps and figured out where we wanted to explore more by doing it on the front end.”
