Didier, I could not
have have imagined a better trip! Portugal has it all --
riding on medieval cobblestone roads through fortified villages,
technical signal track, beautiful seacliffs complete with
Roman ruins -- what more could I ask for?! Thanks for creating
one of the best times of my life.
--- Chris, Mill Valley, CA
-- guided 5 days mountain biking
We loved the bike trip and want to
thank you for all your help. I loved all the places we stayed
and I would recommed them for anyone going in the Alentejo
region. The Portugese people are so wonderful. They are
open and kind. We liked the food and loved the bread.
--- Louise, Los Altos, CA -- self-guided 8 days road biking
I would highly recommend Bikeiberia to anyone wishing to tour Portugal or Spain. I wish you both success in all your future endeavors.
--- Suzanne Simchuk -- SW Iberian Route
I believe I have seen Portugal at a pace for the intimacy your country deserves. I feel I know Portugal well enough to know I hope and plan to return.
I was thrilled by the coastal beauty and the friendliness of the small fishing villages. And I am extremely grateful for being introduced to all the great food, particularly all the fresh seafood.
The route was great. You were always attentive to all the details to make us welcome, comfortable, happy.
I would like to do another tour, perhaps up towards the Pyrenees. You would be who I would want to do it with.

I had a fantastic time in Portugal,
and I couldn't have asked for a better guide. Your knowledge
and enthusiasm of Portugal made the entire trip an experience
I will never forget. Thanks!!! THANK YOU for being such
a wonderful host on a trip that I will remember forever.
Last night, I went through all the pictures I took, and
they really made me appreciate the good time I had in Portugal!
--- Bryan, Richardson, Texas - guided
12 days mountain biking
Another great trip! Thanks so much. All that mud and I didn't
even fall. Definitely one to do again, and again.
--- Dave, Washington, DC - guided 1 day mountain biking
It WAS a great trip, Didier, and thank
you as always for organizing and leading it so well. Everyone
agreed you found just the right level, not easy given the
age and experience range on the trip!
--- Kathleen, Arlington, VA - guided 1 day mountain biking
We really enjoyed our bicycle trip. The accommodation was excellent, map and daily schedule was well-organised, easy to follow and full of useful information. We enjoyed all the prehistoric sites.
The bikes were excellent, especially the gears. In fact they make my bike here seem not so good now. Panniers & other equipment were very good too.
Thank you for your assistance. It seemed a risky thing to do booking by Internet but we were delighted with the outcome.

Please pass to Didier and Esther the
very sincere thanks of our whole group for their patience
and enthusiasm. We are ready for more!
--- Paul, Washington, DC - "Mountain
Biking Sampler"
Back to work today, but feeling GREAT
after such a memorable Alentejo experience! Thanks so much
to you and Jose Mario -- and Esther - for looking after
everyone so well and being such good companions.
--- Kathleen, Arlington, VA - guided
2 day mountain biking
Many many thanks for such a
wonderful day on Saturday. Everyone had a great time; it
was an especially good introduction to the pleasures of
the Alentejo and mountain biking for those who had not experienced
one or both before. Everyone agreed you are the perfect
guide and perfect host; your enthusiasm is contagious, your
expertise impressive, and your thoughtfulness for everyone's
well-being very much appreciated.
--- Jim and Troy, Montana - mountain biking "The Best
of Portugal"
As always the biking was challenging,
the food was great and the sights were fantastic.
Good times, good fun, good people!
--- James, Arlington, VA - guide 2 day mountain biking
What an exceptional tour, holiday and
support you have offered us. We have had a fantastic experience
and appreciate all you have done.

The service you provide is absolutly great and I will recomend it to everyone who will ask me about biking in Portugal or Spain. When we arrived the bikes were already available, and not just any bikes, no!! You've provided good MTBs in very good condition and lots of usefull things including bottles. This MTB trip was for us the first time on a MTB and we wanted to use your bikes to try if we like mountainbiking or not. The outcome is: I like it very much!
