Reviews Peneda-Geres National Park
“Had a fantastic day on the 3rd of July 24. Theresa was a brilliant guide and the mountains were stunning 10/10.”
“Both my friend and I, would like to say thank you to Detours and Musement for this great tour. We had the opportunity to learn about the people of Fafaio, hike to the falls and canyon with a fantastic informative tour guide and enjoyed the drive up in the mountains! We would definitely recommend.”
