Hike to amazing viewpoint - Thanks for this one of a kind hikking session. Antonio guided us among the bushes (long pants strongly recommended) to reach amazing view points on top of the hill. The tour was almost 12km long, cumulating 400m of D+. A great experience!

Recharging in nature with Look Around Tours - Yesterday, we went on a hike that was a breath of fresh air after all the hustle and bustle of Lisbon. It was so calming to be surrounded by nature, and reaching the top of the cliff made all the effort worth it, the view was absolutely breathtaking! Our group was really nice, and the guide was super friendly, which made the whole day even better. By the time we finished, I felt so relaxed and happy. It was exactly what I needed to recharge and feel more connected to nature.

Not for the Faint of Heart - This was a really great hiking experience. Rui and Antonio were really engaged and knowledgeable about the history of the country and terrain. Keep in mind this is a challenging hike that will test your endurance. I recommend long pants and long sleeves to protect your extremities. Bring plenty of water, although our guides offered water and some wonderful treats.
I would highly recommend this tour.

Challenging hike. A must do! - The adventure starts when Andre picks you up with his 30 year old army jeep. Andre tells you with passion what you will see and feel during the trip.
Expect the most beautiful pieces of nature and views. You enter a fairytale and make the most beautiful memories. No other tourists. Only you, Andre and the nature.
However, the pace can be high. The paths are densely covered and can be slippery. Wear good clothing and shoes.
If you like a short but challenging hike, don't hesitate to book this trip.

Great Views - Rui was an amazing tour guide. He had great knowledge on all the local wildlife and the final view at the top of the mountain was breathtaking. I would 100% recommend this for hikers who like a moderate challenge.

Out of the box - This trek was way 'outside the box' not one for your average tourist.Andre our guide left us with an impressive memory of awesome views out to sea and towards Lisbon and conveyed knowledge of the local area and the spirtuality of the 'sound of silence' that this isolated area conveys. Thanks do much for the memory Andre.
