Day Trips from Porto to Gerês

6 tours · €75–€240 per person · ★ 4.9

Looking for a Gerês tour from Porto? Peneda-Gerês is the wild green north - waterfalls, mountain lagoons and old stone villages - and a guided day trip is the simplest way in, because the best spots are scattered and tricky to reach on your own.

Before you book a Gerês day trip from Porto, read the itinerary. We'd look for a full-day tour that stops at the Arado waterfalls and leaves real time for a swim in one of the natural pools. The village of Soajo, with its old granaries raised on stone legs, is a lovely place to slow down if your tour makes room for it. A private tour lets you set the pace and the stops; a small-group trip keeps the price friendly and still hits the highlights worth seeing.

6 Gerês tours from €75. Full-day trips from Porto, private and small-group options, hotel pickup and free cancellation on most. Book online, and book ahead in summer - they fill up fast.
