Three ways to experience Portugal
Choose the Ride That Calls to You
Each experience is guided personally and designed to show you more than a route on a map.
The signature journey
N2 Guided Tour
Cross Portugal from Chaves to Faro on the country’s most legendary road. Seven guided riding days combine a genuine endurance challenge with changing landscapes, local stops and the satisfaction of travelling an entire nation by bike.
- Seven-day end-to-end adventure
- Carefully prepared daily stages
- Supportive small-group atmosphere
Portugal’s southern roads
Algarve Guided Rides

- Routes matched to your ability
- Local cafés and authentic stops
- Half-day and full-day possibilities
A ride built around you

- Personal route planning

Why Ride With Pete?
Pete has lived in Portugal since 2006 and spent years learning its roads from the saddle. That experience matters when the weather changes, a planned stop is closed or a quieter road offers a better day than the obvious route.
RideWithPete is intentionally personal. There is no large-tour production line, no pressure to race and no need to pretend every rider wants the same experience. You receive careful preparation, calm guidance and the perspective of someone who genuinely knows Portugal.
- Years of riding and living in Portugal
- Routes selected for experience, not convenience
- Supportive guidance without a racing atmosphere
- Honest communication before you commit
