Day Trips from Porto to Gerês

10 tours · €75–€228 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.

10 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.

Planning a trip to Porto

Best time to visit

Porto is at its best in late spring (May to June) and early autumn (September to October), with mild weather and the Douro looking its finest just before and after the summer rush. Summer is warm and lively; winters are cool and damp but atmospheric and cheap.

Getting there & around

Francisco Sá Carneiro Airport (OPO) sits about 30 minutes from the centre by metro. The old town and riverside Ribeira are best explored on foot (expect hills and steps), with the metro, trams and short taxis for longer distances. Douro Valley trips usually include pickup.
