Michael – United States

Diogo was very energetic and uplifting. during our hike and town visit we often paused to hear about the history of the town and about the nature around us that we saw. while Diogo was energetic, he really kept with the pace that everyone was comfortable with. we got to swim by the waterfall and even plant our own tree!

Farah – Bosnia and Herzegovina

Our guide Cata was amazing and thoughtful. I really loved wild swimming spots!! I recommend this 100%!

Full description

Surrounded by gorgeous mountain landscapes you will make short and accessible walks to reach a crystal clear lagoon and waterfall taken straight from fantasy books.
Once there you will be able to ground yourself! Appreciate the magic scenery, wild swimming and the purest nature.

Throughout our day, we might feel like travelling back to ancient times. We step in one of the last communitary villages in the Portuguese northeast. Where you will get to know a real interesting way of living, based on traditions and focus on heritage and cultural preservation.

Food is a great way to preserve culture. Traditional meal in a local and welcoming restaurant with fair, flavoured, deliciou food and wine included!
