We organized a day-long Jeep tour through Serra da Estrela as a special surprise for our daughter, who was visiting us here in Portugal. Although we live next to the Serra da Estrela, we wanted her to experience its rugged charm in an adventurous, off-road style.||The experience was nothing short of spectacular and thrilling. The tour carved through the heart of the Serra da Estrela's wild landscapes, with several off-road segments that were both exhilarating and slightly challenging, perfectly highlighting the region's natural beauty. Our guide, Emanuel, was not only knowledgeable but also incredibly engaging and friendly, adding to the fun by snapping great photos of us throughout the day.||Lunch in Manteigas was a delightful part of the day, serving up delicious local cuisine that was a real treat and included in the tour price, offering superb value.
