Transcript of SWEET ORANGES Bike Tour
Portugal
Aside from the spectacular riding, the highlight of the trip was riding along the
dirt road on the coast and that last GREAT meal in Lagos! After such a great trip, I
didn't want to go home. It was a blast and I hope to see each of you in the future!
John P. Brooks, Dallas, TX
...Some of the Trip Highlights● Explore the unknown interior of the ancient al-gharb, stronghold of the lusitanian moors.
● Take a scenic coastal train over the gleam-ing salt pans and marshes of the Portuguese south.
● Travel along tiny country lanes to old whitewashed villages, along orchards of fragrant orange trees.

The algarvian interior has beautiful weather all year round
and the cycling is through country lanes dotted with olive, fig,
almond and orange groves rooted in stunning red earth. In
many ways the landscape and the people feel much closer to
north africa than Europe. This warm, sunny trip offers on top
of great rides the unbeatable Portuguese hospitality, superb
food (particularly fresh grilled fish!) beautiful beaches and
unique accommodation.
