Porto to Lisbon by the Coast with inGamba
ABOUT THIS TRIP
On this week-long, point-to-point odyssey, we’ll explore Portugal, from its northern coastal cities to the sun-drenched beaches near Lisbon, all from the vantage point of your saddle — and the dinner table, of course, because this is inGamba. Starting just south of Porto in Vila Nova de Gaia, you’ll head south along the stunning Atlantic edge, turning towards historic towns like Aveiro and Figueira da Foz. The real riding begins as you pedal over rolling coastal roads and past serene lagoons, before a classic inland leg takes you to the breathtaking Montebelo Mosteiro de Alcobaça Historic Hotel.
Then, you’ll find your way back to the coast for two nights at the unforgettable Areias do Seixo Hotel, where you’ll enjoy a shorter, leisurely coffee ride before the final push. The trip culminates with a spectacular finish in Cascais, staying at the beautiful Farol Hotel before transfers to Lisbon. This trip will reveal Portugal’s unique coastal landscape and culture, staying in a hand-picked selection of unique and charming properties along the way, taking you right to the heart of what we think is European cycling’s best-kept secret. Expect quiet roads and hours of fun on rolling terrain through beautiful seaside countryside.

MEET THE GUIDES
Sérgio Paulinho
The World Tour veteran
After an impressive pro career that started back in 2003, Sérgio Paulinho joined the inGamba team at the start of 2022 after his retirement. But we’ve known him for a long time, as not only did he race against our founder João Correia, but he was also a teammate of our star guide Manuel Cardoso back in the day. A two-time national champion in Portugal, Sérgio has also won stages at the Tour de France and Vuelta a España, and in 2004, he won a silver medal in the road race at the Athens Olympics. So it’s fair to say the man has pedigree! It isn’t the racing victories that impress us most about Sérgio though, it’s his personality, his friendly nature on and off the bike, and the fact that he’s always ready with a smile. That said, if you find yourself running out of gas on a big climb, it certainly helps to have someone like him beside you!
